Mi Band 8

Hi! This looks like seborrheic/other type of dermatitis, most likely caused by friction, sweat, and constant use of the Mi Band. Apply a topical low-potency corticosteroid at night, and should improve over time!

Same happened to me 4 days ago lol, by the way they aren’t water proof but merely water resistant and if you swam with it, the swift currents in the water gives pressure to the mi band which breaks it resistant and enters the circuits

2 years is a long time that it lasted for you. My bands usually snapped every single year. Avoid buying the original Mi Band bands since those are more of a crap than the 1€ AliExpress ones.

I've had a Mi Band 8 for 2 years and I always bathe with it and I've never had any problems, however, my Mi Band 5's screen came off the capsule.

Your custom band is beautiful! My mi band 8 stopped working after less than 6 months of use. =.=

Eu uso Mi band, é um excelente custo beneficio, funciona bem demais pro dia a dia, e a bateria dura uns 5 dias usando direto, correndo, monitorando etc. Acho que paguei uns 180 na época, o meu é um mi band 8 sport max, ou algo assim.

I saw other posts about the Miband 8 sealing issues on this sub. Probably it's a Mi Band 8 issue only, sorry for your bad luck, mate. I think you should get Waterproof Epoxy.

I have the Mi Band 8, it stopped working last week, so I bought the Redmi 5 lite, after I bought it the 8 decided to work again

No it's not possible. Xiaomi deleted date and time settings from smart band 8 and never added them back in 9 and 10 even after a lot of feedback from users. This is one of the reasons I ditched them and switched to amazfit and I am really happy I did. A smart band that can't even show date and time

I have been wanting one for years. I wear a mechanical watch during work days and would very much like to wear a bracelet like device for tracking on the other wrist. I use a Mi band 8 for thuis with the screen turned off.
