    did they finally separate alarm volume level from notification/music volume level? (and does the alarm work with sound set to "mute" during sleep? because on previous xiaaomi watches alarm is muted, when you slepe and have this mode on.... which is stupid cause alarm exist to wake you from sleep so it would be nice to actually work)

    Hi Ben, notifications is the first thing I turn off as it is a distraction in meetings and at work. When I see notifications coming in on someone's watch I know they are not giving full attention to the matter at hand and depending on the situation either discount their input or if the situation demands find a way to pull them into the discussion properly, usually by calling out the notifications. It is a nice thing when working alone though.

    Unfortunately, it doesn't address the only feature I've been looking out for from a smartwatch: having a large storage. It's awkward to run or workout alongside my tall smartphone. Putting a 128GB in a smartwatch would let me store all my music locally and leave my phone in the vehicle. 12 day battery life is definitely amazing though.

    I decided to pull go for it. ....it was a mistake! It's an oversized fitness band (not really a smart watch) and a bad one at that. The appearance of everything meets expectations, but the substance, data detail, accuracy, and functionality are all missing. I can't see that any of the results other than perhaps the step counter or GPS tracking are accurate to a useful degree. The sleep data appears to be entirely based off of heart rate (which is a flawed model), and there is no indication that the heart rate tracking is any better than Mi Watch, which was ok, but not excellent. If you set up the watch for the most accurate measurements and "always on" then the battery life is only 1 day (minus two hours that you can't wear it during the day if you want sleep tracking because of charging), which is annoying. I can't recommend this "watch" if you care about the data quality, and I can't recommend it if you want other features (there basically are none and there are no apps that work with it because it's a proprietary OS). Two thumbs down! I'm going to sell mine.

    just a remark to this channel. The vinyl straps or silicone straps are good for sport and swimming. the leather straps mixed in water and sweat will degrade quickly and become ugly strap with awful smells. Every style has his place and occasion.
