2 weeks with the Xiaomi Smart Band 9: This will do!
The Xiaomi Smart Band 9 is a wearable for those not ready to spend hundreds of dollars on a smartphone accessory.
Gorgeous AMOLED display, reliable health tracking for $50 is great value.
The set up process wasn't ideal but this wouldn't be a problem if you buy the global version.
Watch the video for the full story!

Galaxy Z Flip5 after 10 months: Secretly an Action Cam? Planned to have this uploaded before the Unpacked... but still thought it was worth an in-depth look at one of the best foldables for 2023!

After six months with my first foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold4, I thought the time was right for a long term review. It's definitely held up well in terms of both hardware and software.
