My mi band 8 is not "waterproof" afterall
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

Original Mi Band 8 Strap after 2 years, in a sleep
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.

NEVER let your Mi band 8 drop to 0% and die off
Your custom band is beautiful! My mi band 8 stopped working after less than 6 months of use. =.=

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.

Day and Date format and language on MI Band 10
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

Mi band 4 updates ?
Even the much more recent Mi Band 8 hasn't received an update in 2 years. Usually, there are one or two updates in the months after launch, with urgent bug fixes and added features that weren't ready yet at the release. But there are no constant updates.

How to check if he's selling an original and not a lemon Mib6
A Mi Band 8 era frágil no limite. A Mi Band 4/5/6 eram feitas de ódio solidificado. Era difícil sequer arranhar. Então, eu olharia a integridade geral do dispositivo e quanto tempo a bateria dura, não se tem alguma coisa que não está funcionando. Mas vale perguntar ao vendedor e pedir uma foto dos s

Great news for rw5 (global) users
Lmao it's true, I used his mod app in the initial days where I got my Mi Band 8 Chinese to Global converted for free. Now they're charging for the same price (it was obvious)

This is ridiculous... What's the point of having AOD on Mi Band 10 (left) if this is the result? Mi Band 8 (right) was A LOT brighter and therefore more useful
Yeah and it works but I hate that feature, so why am I supposed to turn it on only to have brighter AOD? Especially when Mi Band 8 didn't have this
