I like the product very much, fully consistent with my expectations.

I, like you, until today wondered "Which scooter to choose? ". After rummaging around on different sites, flipping through the FB feed in the shopping sections, going shopping, I figured out a couple of options for buying in 2022.

Of course, there were many options - this is the M365, this is the Ninebot, this is the Kugoo, but I really didn’t dare to buy them all - the M365 is unspontaneous, the Nineboat is expensive, and the Kugoo, although cheap, is fragile in my opinion. Then I stumbled upon Ya. Market, where I found this scooter.

I’ll tell you right away at the price - 25,400, along with delivery - a Chinese revision scooter and, compared to the European version, which can cost as much as 33-odd thousand, this scooter will be supported by small crutches (meaning the complexity of setting up and further use), which even under such circumstances, they did not spoil the mood and emotions from the purchase!

The process of installing the application "MI Home" and setting up the scooter:
- Installed the application "MI Home".
- Opened the application and registered / logged into the Xiaomi account.
- We went to the profile settings and set another region - China, since we have a Chinese revision scooter.
- Reloaded the application.

- Turned on the scooter.
- Added a device in the "Add devices" section - marked with a plus sign.
- We waited a bit, because. the scooter sometimes connects for a long time - it's okay, it's like that for everyone.
- The scooter is connected, you have to wait for the training video in the application to come out and watch it to the end.
- Done, the scooter does not squeak and rides at its own speed!

Now the nuances and concerns that should be expected from this scooter:
- From the factory, the tires are inflated normally, you do not need to inflate them after purchase - you run the risk of encountering the difficulties of inflating the same wheels.
- The charging connector is located a little unsuccessfully - all the dirt flies to the front of the deck, where the plug of the connector is actually located.
- Please do not pull the throttle, it is very fragile, and it will be difficult to repair it yourself.

That's all I wanted to warn about, have a good trip!

Pros

- Smooth, responsive ride of the scooter on the gas trigger. - Powerful enough for a city scooter engine, which will be enough for trips with passengers of any weight category, not exceeding 120 kg. - High-quality, not smelly tires that do not require constant maintenance (meaning tire inflation). - The strong metal design of the scooter providing reliability of transportation of passengers. - An excellent reliable folding mechanism on the steering axle will ensure the durability of the mechanism itself - The accumulator with system of several types of protection. - Good braking system - recuperation-disc brake. - Multifunctional instrument steering panel with color display, equipped with a speedometer, indicators and a headlight. - The headlight creates a directional bright beam that illuminates the road 2 meters from the scooter.

Cons

- Dependencies. The range of a scooter is extremely dependent on several factors: 1. Environmental conditions. The scooter will travel its claimed 30 kilometers only in ideal weather, road and ECO mode. In St. Petersburg, driving 30 km on a single charge is impossible with this scooter model, even with the ECO mode. 2. Tire pressure level. We all know that you can’t ride with uninflated wheels - this affects the range. Inflated tires add to this, giving the scooter a chance to perform better, so check your tire pressure, this may be the reason for the low range. 3. Passenger weight. This is the least influential factor in range. Because the engine is powerful, the scooter will safely take any passenger. Next, about pumping the wheels. Too bad she's not comfortable. The so-called "pimpochka" by me is buried very deep in the wheel chamber. There are problems with connecting the hose. As long as you screw in the hose, all the air will come out before you blink an eye. I still recommend contacting bike centers with workshops, in St. Petersburg there are such shops on every corner. Dirt. Yes, the wings protect the passenger from dirt flying from under the wheels, but they do not protect the scooter itself. All the dirt from the front wheel flies straight onto the deck and into the charging port. There is nothing to do here, just wipe the scooter after dirty rides. Application. It has a bunch of inconveniences of connecting a scooter. Someone needs to change the country, someone needs to go to the navigator. This application seems to have a REASON to disconnect from the scooter, although this rarely happens.
