Is the Mi Band 2 Worth It?

Most Definitely! I have been using the Mi Band 2 as my daily wearable for the past two months, and in this time, I have come used a lot of other wearables and I still rely on this device for my daily fitness tracking. Xiaomi Mi Band 2 review here.

The wearable was announced in China for 149 Yuan ~ $21, so if you are getting it for $19.99, it’s really a good deal.

Xiaomi’s Mi Band, which has now been followed by the Mi Band 2, stormed the market with a compact size and cheap price tag, and is arguably regarded as the world’s most successful smart band product with its record performance in the market.

The second generation – Mi Band 2 was released early last month after a long wait occasioned by the company’s desire to ensure the device meets the market demand for the highly sought after smart band. The expected release date was even postponed severally to shore up the available stock.

Despite all these measures, the Mi Band 2 is still very difficult to get in the market. The high demand for the second generation smart band has caused its price to spiral upwards and is currently sold for as high as 229 Yuan.  Bear in mind that the Mi Band 2 launched at 149 Yuan in June 2016.

But now, all that is set to change as Huami has made plans to further increase production of the Mi Band. According to Mr. Huang Wang, CEO of Huami which is the company that produces the Mi Band, production of the Mi Band 2 will be doubled next month but it still won’t be enough to meet the high demand.

Lei Jun, the founder and CEO of Xiaomi, whose brand name the Mi Band carries, also admitted via his Weibo account that even though they had repeatedly increased production, the demand for the Mi Band 2 has not been fully met. Lei further corroborated Huang’s information that the Mi Band 2’s production will be doubled from next month in order to meet demand.

The Mi Band 2 packs a wide array of features which makes it a must have for many, considering the affordable price tag. It has an OLED-display and a touch panel, granting users access to more information about distance covered, time, heart rate, body temperature and many other useful data with just one touch of a finger.

Apart from that the device functions as both a fitness tracker and wristwatch with smart technology which responds to your movements. As soon as you raise your hand, the bracelet will display the current time.

Xioami MiBand 2 is the successor to the widely accepted first generation MiBand and Mi Band 1S, and it seems Xiaomi is replicating that success with their new fitness tracker as there is a scarcity that has caused retailers to list it for insanely high prices.

The new fitness tracker which has an OLED screen is supposed to sell for 149 Yuan ($22), but the unavailability of retailers to restock has led them listing it for up to 229 Yuan ($35). Taobao and other e-commerce sites have complained about the scarcity which has affected delivery time. Even JD.com, which has a strong partnership with Xiaomi started selling the Mi Band 2 at 169 Yuan (around $26), higher than the official price, which surprised many users in China.

Remember how the company had to delay the release of the device due to production issues? It looks like still it’s not being mass-produced to meet the high demand. Hopefully, things will be better soon.

The Xiaomi MiBand 2 has an IP67 water and dust resistance certification, an optical heart rate sensor, and a 70mAh battery.

Xiaomi announced the new Mi Band 2 wearable earlier today for an amazing price tag of 149 Yuan which comes to just $22. Now, just a few hours after the band’s release, Geekbuying has started accepting pre-orders for the new device. Of course, you will have to shell out a little premium when buying from the third party retailer, but at $39.99, it still within the reach of many buyers. Remember this is a pre-order for the device and the retailer has listed June 30 as the delivery time. Considering that the band goes on sale in China only on June 7, this seems pretty decent.

As for the features of the device, we have already listed them in detail here. To recap, the Mi Band 2 comes with an anti-allergic, anti-slip strap in black, orange and blue colors. Like its predecessor, its IP67 certified, meaning dust and water proof. The biggest upgrade on the new wearable is the OLED screen on board with a button on top to change modes. This doesn’t really severely affect the band’s battery life, as the company claims that it should run for up to 20 days on a single charge.

You will find the usual activity tracker features such as pedometer, heart rate monitor, steps tracker, sleep monitor, alarm, sedentary vibration alert etc.

You can check out the listing on Geekbuying from the link given below.

After months of rumors and leaks, Xiaomi has officially released the Mi Band 2 wearable, which will succeed the highly popular Mi Band 1S released last year. The new upgrade is important because, for the first time, Xiaomi’s Mi Band series comes with a display on board. It will be a custom OLED display which can display a lot more information than the previous generations which had to rely on the connected smartphone app for these details. So, you can check the heart rate, time, distance, calories, power left etc directly on the screen.

Internally, there are a few upgrades as well. The Mi Band 2 with OLED display comes with a new hardware platform that supports  new sports pedometer algorithm which can effectively understand whether you are walking or sitting idle. So, the accuracy of counting steps should be improved on the new model. Further, the band comes with support for calls, text messages, alarms, 7 different kinds of reminders, sedentary alerts and all these details can be displayed on the screen on top. Also, the company is said to have improved the sleep quality tracking on the new device.

The Mi Band 2 comes with a new strap made out of skin friendly material. Also, given that it now sports a screen, the company increased the battery capacity inside by 55 percent, which means you can still use the wearable up to 20 days on a single charge. Its IP67 certified as well.

In case you are wondering, the pricing is still pretty cheap! The Mi Band 2 with OLED display will retail for 149 Yuan which comes to just $22.65. The band goes on sale on June 7 from Mi.com, JD.com, Lynx and even Suning. Third party retailers should soon pick up the device, so watch out for their listings online.
