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!

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 Long Term Review : After Six Months...
Переглядів 14 тис.Рік тому
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. And I'd be comfortable recommending this phone to the hardcore multi-taskers out there. Personally, I don't mind carrying the extra load, so I think I'd prefer a classic phone tablet experience. But, if any phone w...

Hey guys, This review came in a little late(Covid work), but I wanted to show you a more in-depth look into my experience with my first foldable! It truly is the most versatile smartphone out there and I can see why there are enthusiasts. During my month with the Fold, I haven't touched my tablet, wallet, and even my PC. I'm pretty sure I could even use this as my all-in-one device, but like al...

LG G3 Throwback Review: Using a 5 year old smartphone in 2019?
Quick question, do you prefer it with screen protector and cover or just leave it as it is?
I'm using the global version, worth every penny.
Hi I just want to ask if you've experience an over estimation on the number of steps taken? how did you guys calibrate it?
Hi, yes compared to a Galaxy Watch, the Mi Band does tend to be a bit more “generous” in terms of step count. But it wasn’t too far off!
It's not 40 dollars
Oh did the price increase?
Big thanks for the review, man! You're one of the very few videos on YT that goes into actual user experience and it convinced me to get this keyboard for myself-it's also my first mechanical keyboard and I couldn't be happier with it. Cheers!
Thank you for such an amazing comment man! Glad you're having a great time with the keyboard. Hope to see you around in the channel!
This or the huawei 9?
This
does the battery only go for 5 hours????!!!!!!!
is it a good gaming keyboard
I’m not a pro-gamer by any means but for daily average gaming i think its more than enough! Since its a linear switch i assume there are benefits with that as well
Nice review. I've received my band 9 and love it. Haptic motor is great and it can play pause music that's playing on my phone. Downsides: supplied strap is terrible - it comes loose so easily. So, at the until I get a different strap I'm not wearing it outdoors - it will get lost. Also, the AOD screen really could be brighter.
Yes you can! And there is a haptic alarm function
@@johnkim-tech that's great, thanks. Bought it!
@@AndrewUA-camhandle oh congrats man haha let me know how it goes
Bro do you know how many HZ that keyboard work with? i know that F75 work with 1000hz but this one do the same?
Used mi4,5,6 band's for lots of years now using the mi band 8 thought of not going to the mi9 yet cus it's bit similar to 8 but still love the exprience of all mi generations🥰
Always good to hear from another Miband user :)
@@johnkim-tech sheesh thanks bro,could u give me ur whtsapp no if u like i like to meet a new korean friend
I’ll be waiting for the band 9 pro and get that is it a nice upgrade from my HUAWEI band 7
Yeah I bet the bigger display is worth it!
can you tell me about the alarm features? is it vibration or sound or both? have u tried it in the morning and does it help you wake up up? this will help me decide whether to buy or not thank youuu
Vibration only, I wake up easily from my phone alarm, so haven't had much use for it yet, but certainly couldn't hurt :) hope this helped!
nice video man, convinced me to buy it. I will get the global version cause it's too much of a headache to try and connect it on china version. nice review 👍🏿 coming from a mi band 4 :)
Congrats man! And yeah I would also buy the global version lol Thanks for the comment 👍
Can you set flashlight as shortcut like Mi Band 6?
If you mean as a widget shortcut then yes!
try huawei band 9
Hope to! I heard good things about it
Hi I am from India and ordered the band from China and I think I have received Chinese version, so I have changed the region settings in mi fitness to China but band watch face option is not visible in the application. Any suggestions how to get that
Hi, sure thing! If you click the "device" section at the bottom, there should be "manage band displays". That's where you can access the watch faces.
@@johnkim-tech I know that, I saw in your video but in my case it is not visible
Hmm are you sure the device is connected? If so, I dont see any other way inside the app 😞
Long press on the display should allow you to switch from a few preinstalled watchfaces...
Question: What is this red dot that appears on the watch faces of Mi Band 9, friend?
The red dot let's you know when you have unread notifications!
Where did you buy your metal strap from??
Link below! s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DmttmIf
eww smartband with metal strap, buy apple watch with metal band. 😂
Wha hey...it's not too bad 😂 To me its more like a smart bracelet
Hey, I've come here to ask if it will pop out easily after a hard hit on the ground of any sort? Because it happened to me with the Mi Band 3 which is quite old, so I came to see if it would happen with this version/model. Thanks!
Hi, yeh just repeatedly dropped my Mi Band at 1 meter height (on a carpet floor), but no popping out issue so far ;)
Does it measure vo2 max?
Yes, I believe the name is Vitality score for Mi Band
What is the mm of the band lug?
It didn't really say, but any bands designed for Mi Band 8 and 9 should have no problem!
Not upgrading my Smartband 8. I'll wait until Xiaomi make the bezel symmetrical.
I agree! Perhaps maybe with an even bigger display..?
@@johnkim-tech I would prefer it smaller
I got it, and it is great but a lot is Chinese 🤭
Haha yeah that takes a little getting used to. Fortunately the watch itself doesn't have much chinese (except for some watchfaces)
how the fuck did you adjust the stainless steel band to your arm? I think you have to remove some parts of it to not be too loose on you
Man I hear you, but its easy after the first try haha Recommend this video! ua-cam.com/video/TaSqbEuc4i8/v-deo.html
What color is your Band 9? Glacier Silver or Titan Gray?
Hmm mine is silver, I don't think there is a grey option?
@@johnkim-tech Thank you. there is a gray one, but I have not yet seen it in my city
Could you please provide a link in the description where you got the stainless bracelet? Thanks!
Will do!
@@johnkim-tech Thank you! ❤️
Can you tell me the color you chose. Also can you give me a link to the stainless strap
Silver model Strap link: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DmttmIf Hope this helps!
@@johnkim-tech thanks a lot.
nfc?
Yup, but doesn't work outside of china
hi , does mb9 allow you to change the date format from MM/DD/YY to DD/MM/YY ?
Nope, I tried searching on reddit, but so far it doesn't seem to be available
A lot of the people seem to be facing the same issue
@DayinTech appreciate the reply, seems like mb9 follows mb8 date format too...mb7 allows u to change it , hopefully xiomi fixes this issue because it's confusing.
First time in your channel and I think it did a good job in reviewing the band. Good luck on your future future videos.
Thank you for the comment!
The band 8 only logged runs in km with the global version, does the band 9 record runs in miles?
That seems like a nice detail, but no I couldn't find that option
2:23 what watch face is this one? stock for mi band 9?
Nope downloaded it from the Mi Fitness App!
@@johnkim-tech ohh i dont see it on mine. maybe it was for the china market and the not global one?
@hungryalien oh actually the name of the watchface is in chinese....功能数列
My active band 8 is awesome
Wouldn't mind a Mi Band 9 Active for the larger screen!
@@johnkim-techYeah its cool but it doesnt seem to have what i dont have on the 8 😂
@thesharinganx so it's a Miband with readable notifications then 😂
@@johnkim-tech it shows full text ? That bonkers man
😂😂
can i change date to day/month on this? instead of month/day
I tried looking, but I don't think we can :(
@@johnkim-tech nope can't they had this option miband 7.
does step counter is accurate? my band8 is counting even im not not moving lol
I like to know this to!?
That's confusing lol I haven't had that problem with my Mi Band yet
But then again I don't expect 100% accuracy in these things either 😂
@@johnkim-tech try to move your arm repeatedly like walking and it counts i found the culprit lol
😂😂
First well produced video ive come across on the product
Thanks man!
Dont
Could you compare this with huawei band 9
Huawei 9 should be better for sleep tracking, the rest is almost the same
Brand with legacy? Really? Meaning they copy others since the beginning
Also true! Wasn't a fan of that either. But I do think that on certain products like the Mi band, Xiaomi still tried to do their own thing.
Did you purchase this from Coupang?
Nope from Aliexpress, surprised you know coupang tho lol
@@johnkim-tech I live and work in Incheon. 👌👌👌. I just purchased the mi band 9 from coupang. It cost 49800 KRW! Your video helped me get one.
Oh awesome haha it kinda hurts that I paid the same price for it on Ali, but hope you enjoy man!
My mi 4 is still working and I am waiting for the mi 9 global verstion to arrive I ordered it online yesterday.
Congrats! Hoping someone can check if the watchfaces are in chinese for the global version as well..
I’m not sure if I’ll buy this device or not. Since I’m also working out, I think it’s a good idea. Nice biceps tho
Haha thanks man, if you work out, yeh this definitely is a good to have!
very decent video quality. great editing, audio was well done. the cuts between B rolls was well done. you can improve by color grading but this raw look is pretty good as well. i didnt expect this level of polish on this video. good job. the actual content was useful as well. i have the mi band 7 ( yes i think it is called mi band dunno why they changed the name) and mine really lags because it doesnt have a 60hz display. this smart band looks really smooth, but its not really adding any significant features to the previous generations. i had the mi band 4 before my 7 and also the mi band 2 before that. so ive been using these bands for so long now. and even jumping from the mi band 4 to 7 didnt have that many features that i wouldve used. it was bigger and had a better display of course. just wanted to give my thoughts. thanks and GL
Really appreciate the comment! Yeah seems like it's another iterative update this time around. Xiaomi has refined small details like display refresh rate, sensor accuracy, and vibration motor, but I am hoping they bring some hardware changes for the 10th
love ur video bro
Thanks man! Appreciate it
the setup was kinda hard since it is the chinese version but the global one would probably be easier to setup
Yeah learned that the hard way lol recommend the global version for sure
Hey, is the global version out?
@@tzen1th586 AFAIK it is out already in my country they're having a sale for it too around 31usd for the mi band 9
@@tzen1th586yeah, I ordered mine this morning from AliExpress from the Xiaomi Store EDIT - my order says it will ship in 9 days...so they may not be available just yet...but hey, I paid less than $40 with an extra strap and 2 screen protectors...I'm good.
still Rockin my Mi band 5 but im gonna upgrade to 9
Congrats man!
Mine is Mi Band 4. Almost got the 8. Good thing i was lazy and end up getting 9! Waiting for it to arrive
We want the smart watches for health features... Why do none of the reviewers focus on that? Please can you focus on it please. I've been on UA-cam for hours and I know about sapphire glass, 5atm and batteries and little or nothing more than it mesures Heart rate and blood oxygen. Nothing about it's accuracy and whether it has diastolic and systolic readings. As long as reviewers focus on these, tha manufacturers would focus on that too, till we're wearing a Samsung S35 on our wrists. In 2008 I had a B rate watch that read my BP with the heart rate. Today? Nada. Even the S3 doesn't read the blood pressure 😢
Thanks for the comment! I read in an article that health tracking tech in wearables is still premature. Which is why I didn't dive too deep into health features (my unqualified knowledge aside 😅). But I'll make sure to take note of that in a future video!
@@johnkim-tech 🙏🏾 thanks so much... After many searches I went with the Xiaomi S3 esim. Though it's just heart rate it displays, I hope it serves well in the health monitoring department. Once again, 🙏🏾
Exactly! It's so annoying.
I want the steal band I have the 8 I'll get this with a steelband
