Review on Smart bracelet Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 4 RU, black by Jnis Zels ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice price, good quality.

After 2.5 years with mi band 2, I upgraded to band 4. That's all I was after; an improvement. The bracelet is not for sports but rather informational, showing approximately the level of load but not for training; the screen is better, larger, and more functional than the previous model; the brightness can be adjusted depending on the time of day; the accuracy of characteristics and measurements is comparable to mi band 2; and so on. Since using audible signals at work is not an option, I rely only on the bracelet's vibrations to alert me to incoming calls and notifications. The option to ignore or dismiss the call is a welcome convenience. My previous one lacked this feature. Both types have a water resistance that rivals that of the undead—without diving, of course. There are three major drawbacks in my opinion. First, the AliPay screen cannot be hidden. I have to shoot in the shower because the water keeps turning on my phone's music, but I don't pay any attention to it because the Mi 2 is so comfortable to hold. The most significant drawback is vibration during discharge. Band 2's charge lasted for about 21–24 days; after that, it began vibrating slightly (about 15%), but since the vibrations occurred twice daily (in the morning and again in the evening), they weren't too bothersome to endure until the battery died completely. Poor quality at Band 4! It has a lifespan of 15–16 days, however it begins to continuously curse at 16%, buzzes every three minutes, day and night, and discharges the battery at quadruple speed due to this constant vibration. It's too much to handle. Even though I know the battery will last a few more days and there are situations when charging it immediately is not an option, my phone still manages to annoy me a million times a day, prevent me from focusing on my work, and prevent me from removing it lest I miss an important call.

Pros
  • Convenience, ease of use
Cons
  • Accepting Alipay, a Sound Screen, and Discharging Vibrations
