There is no screen only a few LED lights, and while this may not sound like much it means the Mi Band has a 30 battery life and does it’s few simple roles very well.

    Does anybody else have problems connecting to the band with Lollipop? I’ve had since flashing Cyanide L based on Lollipop 5.1.1, while running Kit Kat everything was fine..

      Works like a charm on all my 5.0 devices, so I guess is more a ROM issue than actually Android 5.1 issue.

    Thanks Xiaomi! I love Mi Band, and it just got more better. Xiaomi promises 1 month of battery life, but I have used this Band 61 days and I still have 27% juice left in battery. Best bang for the buck fitness tracker ever <3

      You need to get the modified APK with app notifications, then you will get the 30 days hehehe.

      My MiBand Band just broke yesterday, I need a new one ;_;

        You can just replace the bracelet.

      I’m jealous, after 3 months of usage it’s always been about 45 days. The Mi band app on Google Play has a lot of people complaining about the battery only lasting 1-2 days, safe to assume they have conterfeits.
