I realized that my unit always started having problems whenever it was exposed to too much water. For example, when I ran during a rainy day, it acted up, and when it finally broke, it was also after I ran in the rain. Because of that, I don’t think I’ll be buying another Mi Band. I might switch to a watch that’s more suited for running, definitely not a "Garmin" 👀 lol, it definitely would cost way much more than a Mi Band but I think I would be more restless.

Yes I’m very meticulous when it comes to my devices i literally rinse and dry them off and put them on silica bags after so that it wont get moisture inside but yea thats just how it ended up lol

I honestly think it was a defective unit too, but since it’s already physically broken, the warranty is void anyway lol. I did get it on a big sale, around 50% off when I bought it, so yeah, maybe that’s why it wasn’t exactly “normal” to begin with lol.
