This popular deal is back, slightly cheaper than last time even more so using coupon AU $4.49 Off Order of AU $29.92 or more
You can get the coupon from this recent deal
Reading comments from previous deal, it seems they received theirs about 2 weeks after ordering which is excellent for free standard shipping from China.
Price in title inclusive of GST - Don't forget cashback for further savings.
Whats the main difference? I have seen people say that the Chinese version works in English also.
I have the Chinese version. Slightly different battery size and alipay which is only usable in China.
It comes in Chinese but once you pair it the language changes to your phone language.
I confirm the battery size is the same as the global version. 135mAh
When you download the Mi App and pair it, it will install the English version to the band.
I'm using the Mi Band 3 Paid $15 delivered and love it, I think the China Version has NFC I could be wrong..
did some reading, apparently the NFC Version only works in China, for things like mobile payments and transport touch & go etc… Bummer
Bought one from last deal Mi eBay store and band 4 display is a lot better and brighter than band 3 and you can install custom face and can display non English notification.
is this price with or without GST?
It's inclusive of GST. It's for the CN Standard Version. Hope it works ok.. Make sure you activate the coupon code also to get the $4.49 off also.
I'm getting $22.30 as exclusive of GST ie it's adding another $2.23 to the price. What am I doing wrong? 🙁
I got a US $7 coupon to use with this deal, so brought the price to US $42 for 2.
Good price. Came to A$32.84 with commbank conversion.
Was looking at the global version recently and couldn’t find it under A$50, good to learn that this China version will switch to English when synced.
Same with bankwest zero platinum. I forgot to do cash rewards though sighhhhh
Does this work with the 'sleep as android' app for sleep tracking? Ive heard varying things.
I can't see an option in the mi fit app. The mi band tools app has it but I've not personally used it.
Yep works for me
I think you need to buy the excellent Mi Band Tools app. Well worth it for all it's other features
Just got the global version for my wife. We have found it fairly inaccurate in measuring steps compared to her fitbit. We did the 100 step test. Fitbit counted 98, Mi Band 4 only 43.
We might have a dud, but searching online seems that this is quite a common issue.
that is because you didn't take chinese steps
that is because you didn't take chinese step
So step backward XD
How's the heart rate monitor?
Bought the V1 and it was pretty crap when it came to accuracy.
Thanks in advance
Maybe a fake version?
Does anyone know if you will be able to use alipay with an australian bank acc ?
You cannot unfortunately
When i search these on ebay i find many gobal versions around 30 dollars? is there a reason people are jumping at the chinese version for 32 dollars? am i missing somehting? i have also read that the step counter is not very accurate can anybody confirm?
Chinese version will change to English when you connect with the Mi app. Global version only offers English packaging.
am i missing somehting?
The eBay ones are likely fakes
ahh okay, suprised they dont get reported. through the above link there are multiple different options (CN version, global version, different bands, different chargers) is there a specific one you reccomend i assume the only way to get the above price is for the CN version but i dont mind paying a couple dollars more of global version if its safer.
Are the ones on ebay fake? If we can buy through ebay and use coupons it turns out to be a bit cheaper? Example
I’ve seen reviews on Amazon and reddit saying that a lot of people ordering Mi Fit bracelets from certain sellers receive knockoff versions, which look very similar - even the packaging - but are inferior, fake items.
Here is the device people most commonly seem to get:

I'd be wary of the ebay version. Under the "Item Specifics" section of your link it says "Brand: Unbranded".
If you look at the Brand in eBay description. It says unbranded…it should say Xiaomi if it’s original I guess….
Huawei Honor band 5 is superior to this IME.
Yes but do you really want the Chinese government knowing your heart rate, foot speed and urine schedule
;) just jokes people
Haha. It also has Sp02 which is useful for people, like those with lung conditions, sleep aponea and a range of other things.
Hi mate, I saw some comments on this deal saying it doesn't have SpO2 monitor
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/480174
Which one did you get?
@OzBestDeal: Whichever version you get, Chinese or global, it will generally come on the Chinese version (activated). But don't despair, a firmware update is coming next month to enable the functionality on devices where it is disabled.
@Oofy Doofy: Ah I see, so it's disabled by firmware.
Hmm I wonder why they cripple their own products
But that would be the same for Xiaomi, no?
Quality wise Mi 4 is slightly better same with battery life. But for SpO2 and tru sleep functions I bought honor 5 too. Less watch faces compared to Mi band and accuracy very similar.
I have one of these and highly recommend them.
Got it as 32.84 through bankwest card ;)
I am between Samsung Galaxy fit and this Mi4… 5ea Mi4 vs 1ea Galaxy Fit….hmmmmm
So if i buy the NFC one that means ill be able to make payments with it in australia ?
No. Won't work with anything here.
All your data goes to Chinese government be careful!
Great, now they know how much I sleep and how far i walk :/
So they will know what time to kidnap you in your sleep.
And what time to ransack your house searching for pro democracy propoganda.
Xie xie
How safe will it be to use credit card directly on website since they don’t have paypal ?
That is my reason I don't want to buy from AliExpress. As I remember the first time you use them there are process to verify your CC.
Use a pre-loaded card. That's what I always to for Internet purchases. If it's compromised, they only get what you've loaded onto it, not the credit limit.
Great deal. Great product. Have been using mi band 3 and very impressed w battery.
Just got one for $33.34. Thanks OP.
Quick question guys. Does this notify me of notifications for reminders or habit tracking apps? So I could set a time for certain habits and this could vibrate and remind me without me being distracted by my phone.
Yes.
Cheers mate. I can't seem to be able to get the coupon code though. It says all coupons have been claimed although I havent bought anything from AE in the recent past.
I believe this is only for the CN standard version, not the global. Can you please confirm?
