Xiaomi Redmi Watch 5

Genuinely impressive product. Exceptional value compared to similar options priced 10x higher

Love this watch . Battery lasts for a very long time and works really well with all messaging apps . Tracks sleep and exercise accurately

This is a good watch, £40, tells the time, doesn't need a battery replacing every 8 months, can make and recieve phone calls, gives me updates and I use the timer function quite a bit for work:)How accurate or not the rest of it is doesn't really bother me.Looks good, feels good. Works well for what I use!Thank you:)

Excellent buy!!! Honestly wasn’t expecting such quality after trying so many smartwatches. Highly recommended

Cracking!!

I've had a few smart watches and they've annoyed me with a lack of configuration. This one is very configurable. Battery life is really good. I honestly cannot find a fault with this.Verry happy with my purchase!

This is a £40 smart watch/tracker. Mostly it's very good like the other reviews suggest, however there are two glaring (to me) issues that mean I will be returning it.1: the step counting is woefully inaccurate. It varies between double counting heavier strides and entirely ignoring lighter walking. I've repeatedly walked across a room several times using my normal stride and it's counted no steps when I've counted 40. Then I'll intentionally walk with a heavier stride and watch it double count steps. Moreover it will count steps when I'm engaged in over activities using my hands but not walking. Overall it's wildly inaccurate and that makes me doubt the accuracy of it's other sensors like calories burnt.2. I can find no way to set the date format to DD/MM (UK/EU style) rather than MM/DD (US style). This appears to be a common issue with Xiaomi devices based on Google searches, cropping up as far back as 2017, with no resolution offered by the company. That suggests strongly that this is a company who doesn't care about customer feedback. Yes it's a small thing, and this is a cheap watch, but showing the correct date is core functionality of a watch and the fact this hasn't been fixed despite years of issues with past devices gives me 0 hope it will be fixed now.So, I'll be returning the watch and getting a different model from another brand.

It is pretty good. But... I was looking for a tracker to rival my 10 year old Garmin Forerunner 235, and I don't think this is it. I have no idea how to manually lap on this watch, and the VO2 max estimator doesn't seem to work which is a bit annoying. It is very good at handling calls and is responsive, but I don't know whether I would buy it again.
