On the other hand. We have the Apple Watch. Also, with a user guide Besides, you will found an additional strap for larger wrist and a magnetic USB charger. Very easy to use. The Mi Watch Lite is lighter with 33g compare to the 52g of the Apple Watch.

The finish is better on the Apple Watch With Apple, You will have a digital crown and a button on the Mi Watch In addition, Apple Watch comes with a speaker and mic.

Like the contextual watch faces Here, You can also customize the pieces of information with more content compared to Mi For example, You can display your schedule.

For example, On the Mi Watch Lite notifications are read-only When, you receive a call on the Mi. You can reject it, On Apple, you can respond To test the 24h heart rate, monitoring we use the WHOOP, strap it outworks the competition Indeed, Even if the 3 devices use photoplethysmography technology, (monitoring Heart Rate by shining light through the top layer of your skin) WHOOP, has developed many proprietary techniques, hardware enhancements So.

It will be the best standard to determine the best between Mi and Apple To obtain this result with the Mi Watch. You need to set the heart rate monitoring at 1 min So. You will have this well-detailed heart rate curve, With the Apple Watch. Furthermore, you can't choose the frequency, so you can have no record during 9 min. It results in this no detail curve.

With the WHOOP record. We understand better why to use it as a standard. This is the most reliable 24h heart rate, monitoring By, comparing Mi and Apple result with WHOOP. We see more precision on the Mi Watch Lite side, The, Mi, Watch, Lite, sleep tracking, detects, deep and light sleep as well as awake phases. Apple sleep tracking, only detect time in bed and time asleep.

Whoop provides an in-depth sleep monitoring, WHOOP tracks, all 4 sleep stages with precise accuracy: slow-wave sleep, (SAS), REM, light, and awake Another time, The Mi Watch Lite is the more accurate in front of Apple with WHOOP as the standard reference This time, We test the quality recording for running And. The standard reference will be the Garmin heart rate, monitor The, first element to test: the GPS tracing Mi Watch Lite uses GPS/GLASS constellations The Apple Watch uses only GPS constellation In. The end, Mi Watch Lite is more precise than Apple Watch Here's, the heart rate curve after the run with Mi Watch Lite And. Here the less precise one from the Apple Watch This is the standard reference signal from the Garmin heart rate, monitor The, most precise signal. Neither Xiaomi nor Apple have exploitable heart rate data for professional athletes.

For amateur usage, Mi data seems more interesting. When, it comes to swim. Apple Watch data seems more reliable and interesting in terms of performance learning For. This review, heart rate monitoring was set to 1 min, but by default, it is every 30 min In. This configuration, the Mi Watch Lite, is up to 9 days of battery life.

This is the big issue with the Apple Watch You have 1 day of battery life, Not practical. If you want to monitory your night.
