Hey. Very nice video just wanted to know if the watch can display extended text notifications and if so how long can they be? Thanks
It sure what is the character limit, but yes - you can read longer messages.
I had it just on release date.. 1 month ago .. using Iphone : I had some Alexa issue ( disconnected ) opening Mi Fitness solved it , some places on the menú I got "decelerations" , checked the HR on a Spinning class with a chest band and the Watch 3 and worked PERFECT same data!!
That's nice!
@@TechMishka I may say that I needed to send it back .. bluetooth issues ( checked with 2 iphones) , with Android was ok .. sad.
@@RedPanda_00806 so doesn’t work fine with iPhone? :(
Thanks for your great video. Does this watch have the 7 day weather forecast, a compass, and is it capable of coverting Metric to Pounds and Celsius to F ? And how accurate the weather is? and does it adjust the weather automatically if you have the Location on? Thanks so much.
The weather forecast is rather accurate for my location (Sofia, Bulgaria). You can switch to different metric systems and yeah, you can see the forecast about the next days in advance.
perfect review, thank you!
Glad you like it, Gokhan.
Does it allow one to change Font Size and does it support Google Talkback(text reader accesibility for blind and visually impaired)?
None of these features is supported
Hey developer here again. I am here to help you to make your device work for Alexa. I noticed that in your region Alexa is not supported so no need to worry you just have to change the region in the app and pair your watch again and it will work. Actually I am a Zepp developer and don't know that much about Xiaomi fit. In Zepp if your country is not supported you can change the country to US or India to make it work.
Nice
Hey, thanks for the message. I have tried that without much of success though. Perhaps it may work better on a MIUI device.
By the way - would you please get in touch with me via email - contact@tech4all.net . Thanks
@@TechMishka Does this watch iOS compatible?
@@TechMishka I have tried this and it did work though
Hi. Excellent Review, thanks. Does it have the option: "Wake up the screen, when lifting up your arm"? Thanks again
Of course, all 2023 wearables should have it.
geart video!! could you adjust the brightness of the AOD(always on display)?
or can you set AOD to be auto-brightness?
will the AOD brightness too dim? thank you!
Sadly no 😞
@@TechMishka AWWWW!! Thank you!
Hi Michael, Thank you for all the great reviews. I have a question please, can this watch track my health numbers 24 hours including heart rate with spo2 and stress?
Yes, it can. You can check them on the s art phone app afterwards.
If you're gay then it won't....
@@yourikhi😂
Hello, may I ask if we can able to download those watch faces that is need to be paid just like my huawei watch fit i can buy a watch face?
Most of these are for free.
Hi, can you pair this watch with Xiaomi Pay? I cannot see that function in the Device section of Mi Fit but per spec it has NFC
As far as I know it is not supported.
nice review! can it record spO2 blood oxygen continuously? like with heart rate. Do a review please for comparison of redmi active 3 and this watch
It can, but if your hand moves, then it won't take the measure. It needs a out 30-40 seconds for taking a measure, this is why it works better at night.
@@TechMishka Thank you! Do you have Redmi active 3? You could do a comparison.
Great review bro!
Thanks Bro
Can you do a review on Redmi smart band 2 as well, which would be highly appreciated. It’s been released for a while, yet no one done a proper review on it.
Hey Karina, thanks for the idea. Honestly, right now my schedule is full until July, but if there is something in particular you would like me to check - please send me an email and I will do my best to help you.
@@TechMishka thank you Mihail for the quick response. I just would like to know it it is worth upgrading from Miband 6, which am currently using. Any new features worth mentioning ? Am not into big expensive smart watches, been using the miband since 2019, it is small, simple, it measures my steps, get all the needed notifications, and most importantly, battery lasts for 2 weeks. Thank you.
Hey could you please suggest whether i should get this or the active version as i have heard that there are not many differences snd the active version is also much cheaper here. What would you suggest?
Both will be fine. The Active is quite alright too
love your review on this, just wondering if you can make a video between redmi watch 3 Active and redmi watch 3 its so confusing to me since this looks like redmi watch 3 Active????
Hmm, it is a good idea. Right now it doesn't look like I will find time in the schedule, but I will be very happy to help you via email if you have some specific questions ☺️☺️
@@TechMishka i appreciate the reply no need to give me more of your time 🤗already bought the watch 3 active since its a lot cheaper and still a good watch very excited! lol love your vids keep up the good work! wooo! ☺
Does it have camera control feature? Like being able to see the camera view, more than just serving as shutter control?
You can only use it as a remote shutter.
Thanks for this Video dude. I have using the Redmi 3 Active now, and I'm planning to upgrade to Redmi 3 or Amazfit GTS 4.
Good choice
How long have you had it for?
@@user-bf7qg5er7i about 6 months, I love it. just doesn't have the in built gps but overall it's worth it.
Should i consider going for 3 ? Or should i go for realme watch 3 pro or redmi watch 3 active
@@abrarsaleem9980 go for the 3 pro, but if you have a budget to stretch a bit more go for the 4.
Hello, can you please tell me if it tracks pool swimming and what exactly it monitors? I bought the Redmi Watch 3 but didn't track swimming (which I do a lot of) :( Thank you in advance!
No swimming mode, unfortunately
Hey very nice review. Do you know if the GPS accuracy has been improved by now? Im looking for a new watch since I hate to take my phone with me for GPS while running with my mi band 6. I wouldn't even mind if the battery drains faster as long as the gps is accurate while running. A lot of people think 7 pro is trash so I don't know if I should go with the Redmi Watch 3 or maybe even wait for the 8pro (if it has GPS).
It feels just a tad better, but keep in mind that it is right now the summer season here and there are way less cloids
😮😮😮😊
Pretty good device, that display looks great, shame no auto brightness. Interface seems very responsive and not lagging which is great. Wondering how the aod display looks like. Great to know it can do almost a week on a single charge. It's a good option for the price provided they update the app software support. Great review as usual
There are a few different AOD interfaces. Not as elegant as on Huawei, but very well readable in daytime. I'll be happy to share some photos - ping me via email or Instagram,.please.
How is it going now? After a few months, the GPS part is what im half half about? Have they fix that?
It is a little better than what it used to be at the start
Hey Michael, thanks for the great review. I have the same watch and I'd like to know, is it possible to get the gps working without running with my phone? And how? Thanks again.
Just start an outdoor activity and wait until it locks signal.
Hello!
Nice review, now am interested to buy a smartwatch but am between, Xiaomi s1 active , Huawei GT runner, Amazfit gts 4 mini and Redmi Watch 3, which one do u think is the best fort me the price is no problem, which one is more stable , fast, accurate and has better tracking sensors of heart rate, SPO2 and others ?
Each one of the models that you mention is a good one. Think about the size and shape, and connectivity to your mobile. If you have an iphone using Amazfit makes better sense.
what about the normal phone calls?
Does the notification shows the name of the caller even if it’s not in the favourites list or it’s just showing the calling number?
Yeah, you can see who the caller is
What would you recommend between redmi watch 3 and mi smart band 7 pro? My main concern is the heart rate monitoring and blood oxygen spo2. Which of these have better and accurate sensors?
Both have comparable accuracy. Get the one that you visually like better
I'm also torn between redmi watch 3 and mi smart band 7pro. Do they have distinctive differences/pro?
@@MrRaralala7pro can automatically detects heart rate and spo2 all the day, redmi watch3 cant ,u can check spo2 or heart rate only when u open it ,and 7pro have the auto brightness,witch the redmi 3 doesnt have
Hello, which of the two models would you prefer?
redmi watch 3 or huawei watch fit 2
Huawei watch fit 2. It's easily better. Also more expensive, but if your budget supports it, go for it
The Huawei device is a lot better about sports tracking
Hey, nice review! Just wanted to check if you could listen with music (spotify) through this watch (using earphones) and can control the volume as well?
Not possible.
You can listen through your smartphone, and control any media playback from the watch. This includes changing the volume.
Other than side button, you can wake up screen with 'double tap' which is pretty cool. you can select this option in the watch settings
True that! Just like most Android smartphones
@@TechMishkait doesn’t have auto brightness isn’t?
well I use the wrist shake open, its good
Does anyone know if this watch can be successfully paired with Zepp Life? I prefer the (orange) Zepp Life over the Mi Fitness one and I wouldn't buy it if it doesn't work with Zepp.
Sadly Zepp only works for amazfit watches and mi bands
@@jasonco7301 Thanks for sharing the info! :)
Not possible after trying it on my side either 🤔
Nope..but transfering data from zepp life to mi fit is a yes..
Not all data. I have Mi scale 2 and my weight could not be transfered from Zepp to Mi fitness
Hi, great video. I have one question: can u save pictures on it and look at them without wifi?
Unfortunately no
So which one is better for you, Amazfit GTS 4 Mini or Redmi Watch 3?
Yes, I also want to know the answer to this
I like the Redmi Watch 3 better, but definitely prefer the Zepp app
Sir, your videos are really well made.
So kind of you to say this ❤️
Hi, could anyone tell me, if I make a phonecall, from the phone, it won't put it on the watch automatically, like some Chinese noname brands??
Correct
Hey is Xaumi Smartwatch 3 active good?Are active 3 and 3 different a lot?
It is a good one, yeah
@@TechMishka Thanks!
Nice video, I have a question: can I call a contact whit Alexa like on Apple Watch with siri? Or can i only with the menu?
Not possible with this watch.
2-3 years ago, this smartband would have created a wow effect!
But the problem today is that 90% of Chinese manufacturers find themselves caught in their own game, that of value for money.
The prices of Xiaomi products have risen considerably, while their quality has not necessarily kept pace, and today, high-end smartwatches that cost $200-$300 3 years ago, cost the same if not less today, Huawei Watch Fit 2, Galaxy Watch 3, Huawei Gt2, Apple Watch 4/5 ....
Agreed. Similar with smartphones, although there the quality is in place, so are the innovations.
Still - Garmin and Fitbit charge tripled more than that for similar features.
@@TechMishka Garmin and Fitbit are a bit like the Apples of the smartwatches world 😅 , today, for many, it has become like having a Rolex in fact, but indeed it is too expensive for what it is.
Well, not exactly, they're still practically demolishing it here in China.
@@dogmeat2418???
one question please, does it has a task app or to do list ? like the one on gts 4 mini ?
Yes, it has a tasks app
I have the amazfit gtr3 pro but the battery is starting to drain every couple of days now, I have the redmi note 11 pro+ 5g should I get the redni watch 3 instead of another gtr
You can try a factory reset first. GTR3 Pro is superior to Redmi Watch 3 in terms of features
@@TechMishka
thanks I'll that but I ended up just buying the watch
Hi, which is better to buy, Redmi watch 3 or Amazfit GTS 4 mini? Thanks
A comparison I'd also like to know!
Up!
So?
Redmi Watch 3 for me!🫶🏼
Hmm, they are quite close. I feel that Redmi Watch 3 is snappier.
Hello, may i ask, can we listen to music with smart watch 3 active???
You can't.
Hey, im looking to buy a smartwatch and I cannot decide between the Redmi watch 3, amazfit 4 mini and the honor watch 4 (redmi watch 4 is too big). I mostly care about daily use in a compact watch for my small wrist.
Let me If you have any other suggestions at that price range 😅
These are quite good. Redmi watch 3 doesn't have auto brightness feature, and it is for sure a very important one if you plan to use it more often.
Looking for a cheap smart watch, torn between this one and the POCO watch with GPS. Which should i go for, for basic fitness tracking ?
Both are very similar and will serve you well
Does this have the PAI feature that's also found in the Mi Band?
I cannot recall seeing PAI as part of the features.
They are recording about 18hrs behind. Sleep records me sleeping in the middle of the day. I will wake up at 7am and it will say I slept from 6:00am-14:00 or something. If I view it after maybe 4pm it says I didn’t sleep because it recorded it as the night before. If I view my steps/calories it records me walking around in the middle of the night. But the clock function displays the correct time. Standing function is recording at the correct time. There are a lot of reviews from various communities. Can you check it out?
Sounds like there is something not right with yours. Try to factory reset a d check again.
which one do you suggest as the best smartwatch with great battery life and also budget-friendly?
Did you find anything to buy?
Имам един въпрос, може ли да се използва GPS функцията за откриване на точната локация на часовника чрез друг телефон?
Не, такава функцоя все още не се поддържа
Hello again, i bought this watch based on your review but i have a question when i receive whatsapp message greater than 3 lines the watch starts to freeze and lag while reading the message… is this normal ? Or shall i return it back to warranty service
Try to make a factory reset. Sounds like a software bug. It was quite fine when I use it, and I use WhatsApp a lot
Can I know if it there is a way to check our blood pressure from the watch?
Not supported.
Can you please tell me if the watch has activity for swimming (distance-calories etc?)
It has, yeah
Do you know how to activate it?
@@TechMishka one more question: when in training sometimes the exercise stop cause there is not enough memory ,how do this fix?
Which is better? This one or GTS 4 Mini?
Or do you suggest to wait for GTS 5 mini instead?
Hmmm, good question. Waiting for 1-2 months makes good sense.
I see the Redmi Watch 4 is out, is there a global vs Chinese version like the Mi Band 8 Pro ?
Most likely this is the case
Thanks for review.
Does it have blood pressure?
No.
Can i answer calls and speak to the clock? Can i answer text messages? If so is it with aldready made phrases or is there a keyboard? I have iphone :)
All of these answers are in the review 😊
Hey. Where did you get that face? I can't find it on their Mi Fitness app. I wanted to apply the same "Color Blocking" display as yours.
It was among the available warchfaces back then
Hello again , when i use find my phone and my phone is silent the phone just vibrates ? Can i make it ring whenever its silent ? … and can i swap and find my watch from phone ….. many thanks
I don't think this is supported
Can Ι upload photos from the iPhone 11 to thiw smartwatch and how?
It is not possible.
11:30 - correction: it can be woken up by a double tap or/and pointing the watch towards your face (both in settings and/or slide menu).
Great video, regards!
Thanks for the info! Sounds like something new, which is great news.
Is it compatible with Strava? Thanks for the review
Yes, it is
is there a gallery app feature? if not, will it be added?
No and no...
I'm very interested for the watch. Does it have accuracy with paces, heartbeat and burnt calories?
Yes it does
@@TechMishka Do you understand how it's measuring calories? It haven't seen it make sense. It says it's measuring total calories burned - both active and resting. But the numbers it gives me is too high for just activity and too low for total.
How about nap recording? Been using huawei's bands and watches because of this.
This one records them too
Have you reviewed the Huawei Watch Fit 2? I am torn with what to buy between Huawei Watch Fit 2 and Redmi Watch 3.
Lately I am not reviewing Huawei devices. The Fit 2 is a good one though.
I have one question regarding the measuring of the heart rate. In the description of the product, there was written that there is the possibility of setting an alert function so that the watch notifies you when your heart rate is too high. I couldn't find the setting though. Can anyone help me with this, please?
Yes, go into the Mi fitness app, go to the watch settings, select HR tracking and there is a tick about these notifications. As far as I remember they are on by default
Does it includes gps tracked when uploaded to strava?
Yes.
Bro, I set my heart rate continuous monitoring to smart. But when i go to home screen my the heart rate monitor need atleast 30mins to check my heart rate. It this normal???
Yeah, it reduces the amount of samples taken. Improves the battery life.
Hi, can i know what is the difference between watch 3 and watch 3 active?
Watch 3 active is a bit more basic version of this one. Still a good one and the price is amazing!
in this price thats very good even its better i have redmi watch lite still using best ever. almost 2 years
👍👍
is this better than the mi band 7 or the basic mi watch global? 🤔⌚
It is comparable to Mi Band 7. And some of the features are better than the Mi Watch, because it is much newer
i can't believe how smart watch tech seems to have been so stagnant if not even backwards for the last decade! I had the samsung watch 2 back in the day for the same price and id not only had and IR blaster and a camera but the same apps...
This architecture is different. And it is impressive how a basic Os (RTOS) can catch up with a lot more advanced one, such as WearOS and Tizen OS.
@@TechMishka I guess what I'm trying to convey here is that the tech has advanced like 5 years worth in a decade at least compared to smartphones 🤌🏼
How do u think this smartwatch VS GTS 4 MINI?
Think about which smartphone app youike more
does this have notification for messager? and can answer the call?
It supports notifications for each and every app on your phone. You cannot answer to phone calls though.
what is the difference between Redmi Watch 3 and Redmi Watch 3 active
Active is a bit more basic.
Beautiful watch.
👌
Bought this for 60 dollars in my country PH Its good for the price
Totally!
Hi does the watch show notifications from WhatsApp or Instagram for instance?
It does
How accurate is the step tracking on this watch? I just got the Mi Band 8 from this company and am already a bit weary of the steps being horribly off. I am still testing the watch, but when I went for a 5k step walk with the watch on and a tally device in the other hand to count each step- the watch was always either 200-400 steps behind or just didn't count the steps at all. That being only one test, I'm hoping it was a fluke and will keep testing for the remainder of the week...I know the mi band 8 is only $50, but I was hoping it could at least keep track of steps somewhat reliably.
In the event i return this watch, I would love any suggestions for a watch that could fit these criteria-
$150 or less (pretax of course)
1.4 to 1.8 inch screen (36-46mm)
oled or amoled screen
Reliable step tracking
at least 5 day battery life
GPS is not necessary, but isn't opposed either.
I find the steps tracking quite accurate.
Mine is pretty much dead three months after purchase. Started with a green light that wouldnt go off, then a non responsive touch and a battery life of an hour at most
Oh, terrible. Ask for a warranty replacement
Amazfit GTS 2 mini vs Redmi watch 3? Which one would you choose?
I probably would go for the Amazfit because if the Zepp app
Where did you find the green hands face?
It was somewhere among the many warchfaces in the app
Which is better redmi watch 3 or amazfit gts 4 mini?
I liked the Redmi device better - works smoother. The Amazfit is also a good one though.
Im using Redmi 3
Me too redmi watch 3
How to buy redmi watch 3
IS it have plastic Body ? How about its durability if its drops will it cause to some cracks ?
It will be fine.
Anybody happen to know if it's possible to write and deploy a custom/diy app to the Redmi Watch 3 Active? I was hoping to code something in Flutter but it's not clear from my googling so far if it's possible to deploy to the Active (I know a bit about software development but nothing about smartwatch deployment yet).
Looks.like it is not possible
@@TechMishka thanks for the reply. I sort of came to that conclusion too after some more searching and am now considering getting an old Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 for learning how to make a Wear OS app for it.
For the sleep tracker, can it also track naps?
Yes, it can
@@TechMishka thanks!
which should i buy Redmi Watch 3 or Redmi Watch 3 Active .?. Redmi watch 3 Active looks way too cheaper.. need ur suggestion. thanks
The non-active version is a little better.
The price is close to a refurbished apple watch series 5 which is still good and has AOD
maybe someone wants new device and not refurbished and to not worry about their battery every day
@@smartbug1 Yes, just putting it out there that Apple Watch might be a better choice if someone is looking for more apps or better integration with apple devices. Also refurbished AW are like new with 100% battery health
@@jaspercas you can only use AW if you have iphone so it is useless for android users.
@@smartbug1 Yeah this watch is great for android and I would've chose this over a samsung/huawei watch if I had an android phone. You lose a lot of third party customizations and most of the time these apps don't stay open in the background in iOS so you get missed notifications as I've tried with mi bands/haylou/amazfit
@@jaspercas the only way to achieve 100% battery health is to report the battery, and doing that then the watch will not be water resistant anymore... Anyhow this is a Redmi watch (budget brand) and costs a lot less than a apple watch whether refurbished or not, and not a apple watch, therefore there is no need to compare to apple watches whatsoever.
Which one do you recommend more, the Redmi Watch 3 or Amazfit GTS 4 Mini?
I'd probably go for the Redmi.
I wanna know how i put calendar in this watch...
Well... There is an option to put down reminders and tasks. Integration to your phone's calendar access is still pending.
Does it support sd card?
So how exactly does it perform regards phone calls .
You cannot take any phone calls
@@TechMishka does that mean you make or receive phone calls ? Bit confused as it is sold as a Bluetooth watch
i just sold my huawei watch fit 2 due to inability sharing HR to strava, (i'm using iOS, so health sync app is not an option).
Now a bit confused, should I just buy this redmi watch 3, gts 4 mini, or wait for redmi watch 4 🤔🤔
current redmi watch 4 in my country only CN version (which cannot upload to strava 😅
Get the Redmi watch 4
do straps for the lite model and the active model work on this?
how about previous models like 2?
nope.this model use different type of strap
👍👍
Is there a way to turn off the call function in the watch? I just want to accept calls on my iphone :(
Yeah, you can disable it from the app.
@@TechMishka can u tell me the steps? because i really cant find it :(
How's it work with playing music? I basically just want a watch that can track my heartrate, track my movement and play some music. I see this watch can play music, but there's nothing about that in the review unfortunately.
It can only control the music playback on your phone. No.ability to store music locally.
Hello!
I want to buy a smartwatch for myself but am beetwen redmi watch 3 and Ksix urban plus which one is similar to apple smartwatch ultra.
Can you please review this smartwatch "KSIX Smartwatch Ksix Urban Plus", and tell us if it is good or not to buy, starting from the building quality , battery, microphone etc , and especially reviewing the sensors of heart rate , spo2 , sleep tracking etc if they are good or if the numbers are fake and not real ones!
Thanks a lot!.
Most likely I won't be able to review the Ksix as it is not available in my region
Can it be link to strava app?
Yes, there is integration
Can it pair with polar h10 chest strap?
Nope
No ambient light sensor at this price tag is kind of a deal breaker for me.
It is a miss indeed
Didn't cover the bt calling feature
True, I didn't showcase it
I like it. It reminds me of my Pebble Time
Good to hear!
