Smart Band 9 Global Version (2024) 1.62" Amoled Display | 233 mAh Battery | up to 21 Days of Battery Life | Over 150 Workout Modes | BT 5.4 | 50M Water Resistant - Midnight Black

I wanted to get a casual smartwatch that wouldn't break the bank, looked casual and dress-down professional, and had great features. Check. Check. And Check. This little gem is awesome. I am especially happy that it connects to my health info and I can track my steps and heart rate. It has a great easily readable display (for me that means without using my readers). It looks like a bracelet and I have received many compliments about its size and look from others who have since bought their own. It fit nice and snug and the band is of good flexible quality. I never take it off and just wear it in the shower (it is water resistant!) and it just keeps on going for days and days without much reduction in battery (really excellent battery life). Seems like it will last for some time. Really happy with this purchase. Getting the new model (2025) as a gift for someone else!!!!

I had a mi band 6 before this. The touch screen stopped responding after 3 years or so. To be fair, I was wearing it while working with spraying water and sludge, and I am hard on my watch. I am constantly banging it into things. I tried a 30 dollar knockoff smartwatch first as a replacement, but it was too much fuss and irritation. I don't need to dial a phone number on my watch. Really all I was looking for was steps, heart rate, time, and notifications. The mi band 9 handles them all well. The screen is crisp and bright, easy to see in the sun or inside. Swiping on the screen works well. You can select your own shortcuts to swipe left to. Notifications come over very quickly. I have not noticed any extra battery drain. The vibration is perhaps a little lower than I would prefer, but it is enough to wake me up in the morning, which I find much less irritating than the alarm on my phone. I would definitely recommend it. The only thing to see is if the new screen holds up as well as the old one, but there are screen protectors if needed.

I love this watch. It is a simple design, elegsnt and comfortable. I love that the battery last almost 2 weeks without me worrying about charging it. Water resistant and I even have gone swimming with it. Works really well tracking my steps and even sleep. I love the sesitive buzzing alarm. It has many other features that I don't really use, but so far, I am satisfied with it. Just a word of advice about the band in case you buy one for your kid or teen: I purchased a second one for my not so careful daughter, she lost it in a week because it went lose somehow while probably removing her sweater. I have no problems using my watch, but I am a more careful adult. Great price, too.

I'm a fan of the Xiaomi Smart Band. I used the Mi Band 5 and 7, and this time I bought the Mi Band 9. The app isn’t very intuitive, and the user guide for the Mi Band isn’t exactly easy to follow either. However, once I get used to the functions I want to use, the simplicity and lightweight comfort of the Mi Band make it the only one I end up using. The Mi Band 7 and 9 don’t seem to have changed much, but the 7 has been a great help to me over the past two years. The Mi Band 7 didn’t just stop working; it 'died in the line of duty,' having served me faithfully for two years before it passed away. I’ll tell you the story of how I first got introduced to the Mi Band. Back then, it was the Mi Band 5, but since the difference in features is not significant compared to the current Mi Band 9, it remains a useful reference before making a purchase. Company C’s warehouse somewhere in Asia—I worked 8 hours a day pulling a cart non-stop—literally no (official) break time. My job was to find the ordered items, load them up, and deliver them to the ladies who did the packing. The only time I could sit without worrying was during lunch. But being exhausted, full from eating, and sitting down? That’s a perfect recipe for dozing off every time. So, I decided to get myself a reliable alarm clock to keep me awake. I considered a $2 stopwatch from a dollar store (Daiso), but it got eliminated in the final round because changing the battery was a hassle. Instead, I ended up with a much pricier but fancier Mi Band 5. On the first day, I was just happy it told time accurately, but then I realized—it also counted my heartbeats while I was dozing off. Wow, new tech. But, seriously, why? At this point, it might as well have had a feature that automatically alerts a funeral home if my heart stops while I’m sleeping. Anyway, back to work I went. Here are my thoughts after using it for a few days—just personal impressions and some random questions. If you are already reading reviews, you probably know all the functions. So instead of a spec rundown, here’s how I actually use them: Sleep Monitoring It sends something—electrical signals? Radio waves?—to my wrist at intervals I set (once every minute or every 10 minutes). The fact that only my wrist feels sore in the morning tells me I have clearly been in an inappropriate relationship with this gadget overnight. I don’t even use a microwave, and this doesn’t feel great. But it’s fascinating, so I give it two nights. Then it starts nagging me like my mom did 30 years ago: "You went to bed too late. Sleep earlier. You didn’t get enough deep sleep." It even logs the exact time I get up to use the bathroom. Now, that’s impressive. Exercise The only workout I do is running. I don’t have any heart conditions, so I never care about heart rate. But I do like that it tracks my distance. At my age, I need to brag about how far I can still run. Menstrual Cycle Tracking & Alerts I’m a guy. Battery Life & Charging The battery lasts forever. Charging is easy. No complaints. Stress Monitoring I already know when I’m stressed. Do I really need a watch to tell me? Also, it doesn’t seem to differentiate between stress, tension, and excitement—like the kind of excitement you get from certain situations, for example. Final Thoughts If you are old enough to need reading glasses to see this text, listen up: Mi Band 9’s font is tiny. If you just want the time displayed in big numbers, that’s fine, but cramming multiple bits of info on one screen? Forget it. It is packed with features, but let’s be real—who is actually going to check their sleep data every day for a year? Your sleep quality won’t improve just because you look at the numbers. And honestly, how many buyers really have serious arrhythmia concerns? Unless you do, heart rate tracking isn’t that useful. Also, if your phone is within reach, why would you squint at this tiny screen for texts or fumble with your fat fingers trying to change songs? That’s just comedy. It is basically a cute gadget watch. But! If you’ve read this far, you’re already too invested. Let’s be real—you’ll probably hit that "Buy Now" button tonight and go to bed pretending it never happened. Just get this over with, and stop thinking about your next purchase for now. Free yourself from the agony—buy it now, and move on. Objectively, just the watch and step tracker alone make it worth it. It also has a handy feature to help you find your phone. A solid, sleek, and not-too-cheap-looking digital watch for under $45? That’s not easy to find. And if playing around with its features makes you enjoy working out for a month or two, that alone justifies the price. For serious fitness folks, you might even discover more useful functions than I did. And when you get bored? Swap out the band (about $7) or trade it with your nephew for an Attack on Titan figurine, a popular anime character. It has a design that kids totally fall for. Good luck.

This is the best smart watch I've ever had, hands down. I've had a Samsung Galaxy and a Fitbit Versa, and although they were a little older, their accuracy didn't come close to the Smart Band 9. It's comfortable and fits well, looks chic (especially with the optional bands you can buy), and the software and app are simple enough to use. I've had zero issues with connectivity, it's easy to read (when the brightness is set correctly). I personally don't want to be looking at my wrist every time I get a notification, so I've turned all of those off which was simple to do, but works well for that, too. For the price, you can't beat this watch. I get funny looks when I tell people it's a Xiaomi Smart Band 9, but I don't care. I like it so much that I bought one for my husband, and he likes it way more than his Fitbit.

【良い点】 Xiaomi Smart Band 9は、旧モデルと比べてディスプレイ輝度が強化され、屋外でも格段に見やすくなりました。新たに環境光センサーが搭載され、自動で画面の明るさを調整するため、屋内外問わず視認性が安定し、バッテリーの無駄な消費も抑えられます。 バッテリー持ちは前モデル同様に最大21日間と非常に優秀で、睡眠・心拍数・ストレスなどの健康管理や、150種以上のワークアウト記録、LINEや着信通知機能なども健在。Android・iPhoneどちらでもしっかり使えます。前回いつ充電したのか忘れてしまう程にバッテリーの持ちが良いので、ここが最大のメリットだと感じています。 操作面においては「繊細な挙動と滑らかさ」とまではいかないものの、スワイプやタッチ操作は概ね良好です（動画参照）。 さらにクイックリリース構造によりバンドの交換がより簡単になり、ファッションやシーンに応じたカスタマイズ性が向上しているのも好印象です。 【気になる点】 Smart Band 8と同様、GPSが非搭載であるため、位置情報の記録にはスマートフォンとの連携が必要です。また、通知の詳細カスタマイズにはやや制限があり、全てのアプリ通知に細かく対応できるわけではありません。多機能な分、初期設定がやや複雑で、スマートウォッチ初心者には少し慣れが必要かもしれません。 また、Smart Band 9はサウナなど高音な場所に持ち込むと強勢シャットダウンする仕様に変更されてしまったため、再起動には専用充電ケーブルが必要になる為注意が必要です。一度旅行先でシャットダウンしてしまい、帰宅するまで使用ができない事があったため注意が必要です。 【総評】 Smart Band 9は、旧モデルの利点を引き継ぎながら、視認性・使い勝手・デザイン面をしっかりブラッシュアップしています。GPSが不要で、日常的な健康管理や通知確認を手軽に行いたい人にとっては、引き続き非常にコスパに優れたスマートバンドです。

Bästa jag haft KÖÖÖP

I absolutely love the Xiaomi Smart Band 9! It totally exceeded my expectations, especially for the price. I used to be a loyal Fitbit user, but this one has honestly impressed me more. The screen is bright and responsive, the features are packed (heart rate, sleep, workouts, notifications – all spot on), and the battery life is amazing. It’s comfortable, stylish, and easy to use. For something this affordable, it performs like a premium device. Couldn’t be happier with my purchase!

I bought this band so that I could track better my workouts and training programme. A friend recommended me this model, and it has truly not disappointed. It fits very comfortably and is very light, I forget that I am wearing it! Battery lasts very long (over a week) and it captures very well steps, distance, heart rate etc. The app is very easy to navigate and doesn’t take too much space on your phone. A surprising and nice feature has been the sleep monitoring mode, which has provided quite interesting insights. Overall: very happy with the model and functionality. True to the description.

Lijkt een paar weken goed te werken en dan opeens stopt ie ermee omdat ie de pincode niet herkent... komt ie een loop terecht. Alles geprobeerd en plots werkt ie weer. Week later zelfde probleem maar krijg m niet meer aan het werk. Blijft maar zeggen dat de pincode niet klopt. Valt een keer zo maar van mijn arm en heeft gelijk een barst in het scherm. Goedkoop is duurkoop.
