Mi band 4 Issue

[gamer11]

So it finally arrived yesterday, but I am facing stats issue.
it records steps even while driving
seems to be recording more steps than there are
worked better for swimming after reset now though it stopped automatically in between and had to start again

I guess I'll have to do with what it offers but I had little more expectations for a price tag of 6.5k, double compared to last one, though it does shows more data for swimming compared to honor 4

Gps watch would have provided more reliable data but may fry while swimming, this one's working so far.

it should do sleep tracking by default using Mi Fit app!

i have MI Band 3 but i'm thinking about getting Honor Band 4 & skipping Mi band 4, as it is more accurate than Mi Band series.

Btw it only records the initial sleep cycle, for example i sleep on 12AM and i wake up at 4AM for Fajr Salah, and then i sleep again 4:30AM and i wake up again at 10AM! the MI band 3 only records my sleep for the 12AM to 4AM session and not for complete 12AM to 10AM to sleep data! in which i wakeup and sleep again, which is disappointing for me.

i thought about honor 4 but that shows lesser data compared to mi 4
someone comes for swimming with honor 4, his band only shows calories, time and duration whereas mine shows alot more data for swimming like strokes, laps, calories, distance heart rate etc
now i know why mi 4 doesnt tracks my sleep, it can record sleep only between 12 to 6 i.e only night sleep whereas i work at that time n sleep at day time and hence no sleep data.
Battery seems good, I received it on Tuesday, charged it to 74 and now it's 45

honor 4 do looks better in pics though but now is older compared to this new mi band

Mi bands still require connection to smartphone to sync data or one can view the stats on the band itself ?

Lol Honor 4 has almost identical specs to Mi Band 4, check their online hardware comparison bro, So its not old.

Plus it is more accurate tracker then Mi band 4

You can view the basic step count etc info from the band itself, but the sleep tracking & other detailed information requires Syncing with a smartphone.

Bro i already have Mi Band 3, and i'm not a fitness freak, i only use it for Vibration Alarm feature, which is quite good, & i have no need to upgrade unless Mi Band 4 or Honor Band 4 have better/stronger Vibration motor!
