Xiaomi Band 8 Active Fitness Tracker, Smart Watch,1.47'' AMOLED Screen,14 Days Battery Life,Fitness Watch with Heart Rate Sleep Monitor Step Counter,50 Sports Modes Fitness Tracker, 5ATM* (Black)

If you are in the market for a basic smart watch for your android smartphone, I would recommend the Xiaomi Band 8 Active! The battery will last for 4 days on one charge, it allows notifications but you will not be able to send them on the watch. Same goes with calls, you will be notified but not able to call on the watch. With this watch you are able find out the usual health stuff including blood oxygen, sleep, heart rate etc. It is also at a great price too, so no brainer really! Definitely recommend.

Very pleased with it , easy to set up .

I got this Xiaomi Band 8 Active smartwatch, and it's been great! The screen is clear, the strap is comfy, and it has lots of useful features. Setting it up was easy, and I only had to charge it once in two weeks.I don't usually care about fitness stuff, but checking my sleep has been interesting. The step counter seems accurate, and heart rate and SpO2 readings match my other devices. The best part for me is getting messages, news, and emails on my wrist, so I don't need to grab my phone.The interface is simple and easy to use, and I can read it without any issues. Overall, it's been a good experience with this smartwatch.

I was so pleased with my watch I bought this watch for my wife.

Works nicely and Xiaomi is a brand that always brings a lot to the table and this fitness tracker, with it's low price as well, is no exception.

Took a few days to arrive, opened it up, feels really well made and on a soft silicone wrsit strap.Charged it up first time to full, easy enough magnetic charger connection and it took 30 odd minutes while I checked out the instruction manual.Instruction manual quite thick but actually is all but useless, going on about regulations, warnings etc... basically saying load the app on your phone and connect up written in minute, lightly colour ink. They at least give oua QR code to scan.So scaned it, Google play popped up with the MI app, ratings were a bit low, read couple of pages of reviews, seems there are issues with various parts of the app and connections.Undetered installed the app, by which time the watch was fully charged and while I was sorting the app, I'd disconnected the charger. Not realising it needs to connected to actually turn on the watch, this I found lurking in the utlra fine print.So got it on, confronted with the QR code, scanned that and it took me to the loading screen for the app. Found the device according to the messgaes and phone seemed happy.So logging in, new user, thought create an account .... selected and it asked questions about using location and permissions, got through there and pff it went to do it's thing with a lovely message wait a sec buzzing in the middle of the screen, so waited... and waiting.. and waited wuntil it cam up with a server timeout message.Ok, thought servers do fail, so put it all down for awhile and tried again... and waited... and waited .. and waited to be timed out again.....Over the course of last evening and today, I've given it a good shot, even uninstalling and reinstalling the app and waited .. and waited...and waited.Getting absolutely nowhere fast, it maybe a smartband and active, but without the app which seems not so smart and certainly not active, for me this is a waste of time, effort and money, considering there are other devices like what my daughters use that link in straight away with the app.

The Xiaomi Band 8 arrived packed neatly in an original box.Set up was pretty easy. The first view made me feel impressed with the finishing quality of the watch. Screen looks so nice and clear , it has a bright colours. Screen has a good visibility when outdoors as well.Strap is soft in touch and feel comfortable on the wrist. I really like the band design which is simple and keeps the strap away from things to loosen it .The watch has a variety’s of exercises to choose and track. It works well and smooth. It has an option to pause. Readings on the watch are accurate. Fitness options are easy to access in the watch as well as in the app.Overall it has a slim design that fits on the wrist comfortably.After connecting it with the app it could be use straight out of the box.There’s a variety of watch faces to choose and customisable options to make it more user friendly.Easy accessible control mode .Battery life is more than impressive - for me it works for 14 days before I need to charge watch . How cool is that - awesome feature.I am more than happy to Recommend this active fitness tracker to everyone looking for a great fitness tracker with long life battery alongside a good fashionable look.Good purchase!
