@xaos hard/metal cases don't absorb shocks well, tpu cases are best

idk, the new one doesn't seem like it's doing anything yet ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

it'll probably eventually happen again

@Tribit i think i might have jsut ordered one like that

at that point Mi Band 3 may exist

@xaos the Mi Band 2 can also double as a watch and display notifications I think

this

yea i figured

also be an alarm

it has vibration in addition to the display

aliexpress is still cheaper for me

ok alarm and sleep tracking would be the only things i could think of caring about

Eh I really only found use for the band with sleep tracking and notifications, might just get another Mi band 1

since the shipping cost from gearbest is kinda high

The watch part is cool, but a pain in the ass to use

Notifications on your wrist are quite nifty

it's less of a pain than to take your phone out

Have to do that stupid turn your wrist to get it to activate

I bought a pebble instead

I liked the RGB LED's on the original one, blue for messages, red for email, etc.

one of my favourite purchases ever tbh

i'm quite happy for the price

press F to show respect for pebbel

And the vibration on the Mi Band 2 is lacking in comparison to the 1

F

i feel it on my hand

it's fine

@Tribit hmmm no i didnt really like how those looked, i bought some other ones

banggood is horrible to use today

impossible to sort through

oh wow thanks @Tribit, you reminded me to get a case for the Redmeme Note 4

@xaos There's a really nice premium case maker on AliExpress called Mkobee, don't think they have stuff for the Mi Mix 2 yet. Just Mi6, Note 4x and Note 3 I think
