I've had mine for over a month and just charged it for the first time over the weekend, it had 15% or there about left
Similar result here
Just checked mine - 22 days since last recharge and 47% left.
I have "sleep assistant" on in the settings which checks heart rate periodically during sleep. I rarely check my heart rate at any other times, activate it during exercise or have bluetooth on at all times so it vibrates for notifications/calls. I'm sure it wouldn't last anywhere near as long as it has without a recharge if I did. Only thing I miss is being able to tell the time as I'm used to wearing a watch. Still really impressed with it though given the price.
Shipping?
Does the device record data over time and allow that to be extracted later?
E.g. If I wear it while playing sport, I want to view the heart rate data after I've finished playing.
As above had it for a month only and no real time to super play with it but sleep and steps it records but heart rate you have to view live via the phone app from what I can tell
If you use an Android phone, there is an app call "Mi Band Notify & Fitness" which you can set it so it takes a heart rate reading continuously, every 30sec, 1 mins etc up to every 6 hours.
But two things, you will need to purchase the IAP which is $2.44 and the phone has to be connected to the band for the heart rate reading.
The app can also export the readings out to an excel file if you need it too. :)
Have you tried Mi Band tools? Seems to be the more common choice?
Nope, haven't tired Mi Band tools, got the Notify app before finding out about the Mi Band tool. Anyone tried both?
Edit, maybe you can do full time heart rate and that is when it last 10 days, which is still pretty good imo
Yes, compare to Fitbit HR it would.
They got a factory english tool for this version - or the russian / english version of the app cover?
Still haven't received mine from the 3rd of Feb…. so dont be in a hurry…
I only got my one from the last sale this week. That's more than 6 weeks to deliver.
would gearbest deliver it quicker? it's less than 1 dollar difference.
Is the heart rate accurate in people's experiences?
I've had a couple of the first gen ones, found them useful. Worth splurging on a newer one?
I'm seeing 26.90 when I follow the link.
Anyone else?

I thought the 30 days battery life was without using the HR sensor and it's more like 10 days when the sensor is active (apparently takes a reading on demand or automatically once every 10 minutes).
