Review on Smart bracelet Xiaomi Mi Band 2, black by Mateusz Jamroz ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I thought it would be better, but overall not bad.

In general, of all the other bracelets, I would recommend this one for purchase (I compared it externally with Jawbone - Xiaomi even looks better and does not break). Firstly, it is inexpensive, and secondly, it will help to understand "is it necessary"? The device itself deserves 3.5-4 points, but I put 3 - because the use of these devices in itself is a little doubtful. Let me explain: I am a person of normal physique . and the question of weight control is not for me. I bought it to track sleep phases and wake up easily in the morning with the vibration of the alarm clock. But sleep monitoring works a little strange (or maybe right) - in a variety of conditions, my deep sleep time never exceeded 2-3 hours, and the rest of the time - light sleep time . maybe that's why there is no smart alarm clock, so as in theory, all the time closer to 7-8 in the morning - the time of light sleep. As for the alarm clock - it works sharply. That is, I put it on 72022 - it starts to vibrate exactly at 72022. The vibration strength is the same (I checked). Therefore, it does not contribute to a "smooth" awakening in any way. I get scared . and quickly turn it off. And in the end I wake up from the alarm clock from the phone. If you went to bed late - this alarm clock will not help you much. In addition, I thought that I would find a use for a heart rate monitor - I did not find it . But I think that this thing is not bad for active training. In the end, the most useful feature, surprisingly for me, was the pedometer. He really sometimes influenced my decisions . and the most important thing is that there is a screen where you can immediately see how active you were today. So, for example, sometimes I decided to walk instead of using public transport, I didn’t specifically try to fulfill some kind of norm, but one was established and, yes, in part this device influenced my life a little. . although it's not quite what I expected from him. It costs its money, that is, here my rating would be 4. But the functionality did not fully meet my expectations . and also for the shortcomings of the alarm clock - 3.

Pros
  • -Working hours -The convenience of use -Pedometer -Price -Sleep monitoring
Cons
  • - The screen is scratched (and it is difficult to protect it with a film - it does not hold well) -Software for IOs "not very" - Lack of a smart alarm clock (I think it is related to sleep monitoring, see below) -Small range of communication with the phone (in the next room does not let you know about the call) -Sharp alarm clock
