"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"


"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."


"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"

"especially because of the battery life. ... The mouse I had right before this was the steelseries super light one, that was an every other day charge at minimum. Whereas this one is like once a week at most - and I work from home and game all night."


"offers significantly better battery life ... insane battery life"


"Oh, and the battery lasts days even when exercising a lot (weeks without excercise)."

"App zepplife sync well with my iphone n strava."


"I would possibly argue that the app (Android) is an improvement over Zepp Life in many ways, it has dark mode, it transferred my Zepp data across and it has some additional features, like Sleep Animal, and AI insights that Zepp Life doesn't have."

r/runningfrAvis montre connectée xiaomi

Perso j'ai une xiaomi smart band pro 9 et pour le prix (60€) rien à dire, bonnes fonctionnalités sportives, très bonne autonomie, c'est compatible avec strava (il faut synchroniser mi fitness et strava), et surtout il y a un gps intégré d'assez bonne précision donc le téléphone est moins indispensable à avoir sur soi. Le gros défaut c'est justement en natation où il ne calcule pas le temps de déplacement spécifiquement, mais divise la distance sur le temps total d'activité pour calculer le temps au 100m, donc ça donne un temps bien trop élevé

r/smartwatchNeed a watch ONLY for hr and basic sleep tracking, anyone know an affordable option?
9 months ago

Since the Garmin and Fitbit were not enough for you, your expectations might be too high. Sleep tracking would never be very accurate no matter how expensive the watch is. I have used some cheap (less than 100) fitness trackers and so far Mi Band 9 Pro works well enough in my opinion. It does all you want (HR tracking, sleep monitoring, high/low HR alert) and also has basic smart features such as notifications, GPS, weather app, timer, alarm, compass etc. Mi Fitness app is easy to navigate. It does not fail to detect my actual sleep, but thought I was sleeping while I was just resting and not moving my arm for few times in the past several months. You can delete the fake sleep session on the app so it was not an issue in my opinion. The only slightly annoying thing about its sleep tracking is that it calls sleep shorter than 3 hours 'nap' and does not record sleep stages. Overall I am happy with my purchase.

r/motorolaDid anyone actually buy the Moto Watch Fit?
6 months ago

I also bought the moto watch fit last week online at [bol.com](http://bol.com) for 80 euros. It looks nice but can not hold the candle to fe the xiaomi smart band 9 pro and the amazfit active 2 (which i also own). The software is very basic,and i noticed you can not delete saved workouts!! The only good things in this watch imho are the long battery time and the outside looks. For all the rest i actualy would use other fitness trackers or a real smartwatch. It takes the time automaticaly via your smartphone,as i am in the Netherlands it took automaticaly the 24 hour system. BTW this watch can NOT be paired with iOS ..!! so it only works with android. The pairing of this watch with my android phone took me about 30 min....and was not without a few hassels. So iow not a smooth process. The stepcounter is acurate...and thats about it. Wasted 80 euros here. Not recommended. For this kind of money there are way better fitness trackers to be had!!

r/SwimmingWhich watches would you recommend for tracking swimming?
11 months ago

I am a cheap person and very sentimental, so I am just hsing the Xiaomi band 9 pro my parents got me. It's surely within that budget range you mentionnee. It works fine for swimming so far, been using it for over a month. Downside is that you need to tap the edge after each lap or it won't count the lap correctly but most of the time when I forgot it will correct itself the lap after. Somehow it doesn't log my heartbeat during swim session though.

r/mibandShould You Buy the Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro? Here's What You Need to Know!

my cons: - no physical power button - no way to turn off thermal protection - custom charging cable (just use a type c, mfs) - no nfc - no way to turn off bluetooth - no way to order icons in home screen mostly software related issues. fun fact: if thermal protection happen, it will auto shut down. id you dont have the cable with you, you ll have a useless watch until you get home. (yeah it happened to me)

If you're on a budget or are looking for something that wears smaller, the Mi Band 9 or 10 (9 pro if you need built-in GPS) are interesting and really cheap. The sensors and overall ux are probably a bit better on most Amazfit devices, but the Xiaomi smart bands are still pretty decent especially if you take the price (roughly 30-60 usd) into account.

r/pixel_phonesWhat non-Pixel watch brand do you have connected to your Pixel phone and why?

I've got a P10 pro, the 'smartwatch' I've got connected to it is a Xiaomi MI Band 9 pro. I like it's affordability and great battery life compared to a PW. Also I only use the basics, for which the Xiaomi is perfect.

r/OculusQuestBest budget fitness tracker watch to replace Move?
10 months ago

I use the Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro It's perfect for fitness, with the ability to set your favorite sports as widgets, on the watch . I've shortened 6 sports games, Kayak ping-pong, Archery, Tennis, Combat Cardio, HIIT. For Beat Saber, depending on your level, you can use Ping-pong or HIIT. You can even choose something else with the help of an AI. I paid €70 for my Band 9 Pro, but if you're American, thanks to your 'fantastic' president, you might not be able to find a cheap watch on Amazon anymore, with a 104% tax on products bought in China...
