But they should add better watch faces or should work with facer as buying watch faces 1 dollar is not a big deal to be honest.
But my suggestion is xiaomi should add more better good looking watch faces and also watch faces with animations.
I am so much concerned about watch faces.

got mine for $68.29 (3959 pesos) last 16 days ago, still has 27% battery, better battery life than my redmi watch 4.

tibyke, 14 Jan 2025hello there, it (the bluetooth version at least) has an NFC module in the global/EU market ... moreWho cares about NFC on a smartwatch, that feature is already useless on phones. Getting your banking app activated once per device use and paying for stuff while having garbage security isn't useful at all.

A while ago, I planned to buy the Oppo Watch 4 Pro, but it turned out that it has huge bezels. So, it was a no for me.
Personally, I think that the Redmi Watch 5 is the first non-Apple watch that has thin bezels and looks really good.

If not, then you should shop in much more expensive "toys". Don't forget it's a Redmi watch, not a high-end watch that has even more whistles and bells. Don't expect a Mercedes for the price of a Skoda.

This is exactly what I'm trying to say but fools won't listen.

MMario, 12 Jan 2025That screen looks really good. If only it were a smartwatch with a real system and not a toy.Well, it's a real system, just not android. It does all it's supposed to do (and as good but much longer than the two brands who offer wear OS (Samsung and pixel). My Galaxy active watch works fine as well but it's a hassle to install it (even on Samsung devices) due to the different apps you have install on it compared to this redmi unit (and many other "toys") and you barely get through the day (just as that other overly expensive watch from apple).

Would like to see that one in the flesh. I have de the redmi 4 (and also the 5 active) and I'm very satisfied about that one (both). Very solid, a very good autonomy and many features that work rather well. Much better than my older Huami GTS and GTX (but these are almost 4 years older). I wonder how it would be with wear OS in combination with hyper OS and e-sim support. The big screen and bigger fonts are also a bonus (must) as my eyesight had deteriorated (the bonus of getting old(er). Anyway I will try to get one in my hand as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, many manufacturers use PWM dimming instead of DC dimming. Read about it and don't make a clown out of yourself.
