I was keen to get a basic fitness tracker/heart rate watch. I figured I'd rather go with Xiaomi than some totally random one.
I didn't do heaps of research but this looks like a good price for this one - it looks like it is roughly equivalent to the Mi Band 5 or 4 but a fair bit cheaper.
This link has "limited stock" but there are a couple of other sellers at the same price point.
Mi Band 4C Smart Watch $25.90 Delivered
Price was $22.90 for the last 6-7 months.

Price went up to $25.90 a few days ago.
Prices increases are NOT bargains…
Bought this watch during an eBay special. Can confirm it's absolutely rubbish. Doesn't track steps properly (tested against my old miband 3 and smartphone). I reverted back to my miband 3 for the meantime and currently have a miband 6 on order.
Don't waste your money. Would be good for as a gift for kid or something.
Judging by the comments…seems a little research might've been a better idea. Ouch!
Haha yes I think I'll be calling my order after this feedback. Should have posted first!
Bought this for $5 from Ninjabuy a while ago, don't use it much as it's very difficult to put on and the step counter is often inaccurate.
FYI you charge this by removing one of the wrist bands and then plugging the whole watch unit into a USB port
There's also no way to switch the power off — it will continually stay on until the battery runs dry.
Agree with others. Bought it from previous OZB deal because it was cheap. It's a pain to put it on. It's quite frustrating. Hard to take one part of the band off to charge. Sometimes, when I am awake, the watch thinks I am sleeping so the sleep tracking is wrong.
I will toss it into the bin. I refuse to give this to any friend or family (coz. he/she will suffer). How can someone design this junk?
$25.90. Honestly, you are better off flushing that down the toilet than buying this dumb, frustrating watch.
For 5 bucks as part of the ninjabuy im happy with it. Mainly use it as a media control for music etc when headphones don't have physical buttons and to find my phone when on silent.
Wouldn't pay more than 10 or 15 bucks for it though.
Yep. Better off paying the $30 or so for a PineTime.
Which models allow you to read SMS from your phone?
This watch will push notifications (Insta, SMS, calls etc) to your phone.
Mi watch Lite. The large screen is adequate for showing SMS. Got one a few months ago, and the only gripe is that Xiaomi Wear does not connect to my Mi scales. The clip on charging adapter is also quite good and charges in about 2 hours from 5% (USB3).
Not a bad watch, but its a pain in the ass to put in on. Also it doesn't sync with Google Fit, which can be annoying if those with Wellbeing or Medibank app collecting points.
I wanted it to use to wake my up according to my sleep cycles but the standard firmware doesn't support it. There is some other firmware you can put on these devices but not the 4C so do your research if you want to put on custom firmware.
nah, doesnt matter how much you pay you are still wasting your money.
no but no bat no bit
even at $10 it is $10 goes to collecting dust.
just no
