Greetings comrades,
Hope you're all well especially during this troubling time.
I believe this may be the cheapest price for the Xiaomi Mi Band 5 Chinese version, and from a very reputable seller - I've bought lots of stuff from Goldway, including a Xiaomi redmi note 4x.
I would link to some specs, reviews but gotta run, and we all know Xiaomi.
Cheers, Wystri Warrick 😄
It's working for me, I got all the way to the payment screen :(
the link works for me on PC but not on phone

450 nits? That's impressive! I bought the cheapo Chinese knock off of the cheapo Chinese original—M5—and the screen is unreadable outdoors XD
Orders from aliexpress are taking a long time.
It's orders from China, not just aliexpress. Delivery network has come to a grinding halt.
Still waiting for my order even after 2 months,
I had a thing delivered after 6 months
Given there'll be an uptick in the level of orders in the sale, you might find these will arrive a bit faster than where things have been at the last few months.
But yes, the lack of air travel means that air freight has been slower.
Ordered something on eBay, shipped from Sydney to Sydney. Took 2 weeks. Bought two items on Aliexpress shipped from CN, almost 2 months, and still waiting.
I waited 91 days for one item, but neither example has anything to do with what I'm saying.
This next 90-day period is AliE's biggest for the year.
Just had something delivered using Aliexpress Standard Shipping I ordered on 17th of July. So 28 business days. Not too bad.
Ive ordered 9 things over the last 2 months all from China. The most useless item of the bunch a keychain arrived first within 2 weeks even though it was the last item I purchased. They were all shipped roughly around same time. Who really knows whats up with the postal services :L
Can these display progress on Strava or do you need to record via the Mi Fit app?
anything else missing from the Chinese version other than nfc?
(assuming nfc works for payment using a bank app or Google wallet.)
thinking of getting this for the mrs since her zenwatch is not giving accurate metrics
That's how I read it, once sync'd it will change to English from the initial language of Chinese.
global version had the sp02 sensor stripped out as well for some reason…
Does the CN version have sp02?
Chinese version is cheaper, I've read that it's the same as international anyway other than the packaging?
better since it has NFC
The NFC is useless outside of China
oh… well then I guess its basically the same then. The review i skimmed only mentioned the NFC
Is the Chinese NFC different?
@wisdomtooth: NFC on Miband 5 works only with Mipay which is the Xiaomi payment gateway and only exists/works in China.
I was going to order from Ali, and then the shipping times threw me off.
Just think of it as a surprise Christmas present for yourself !
code does not work
This promo code is a limited offer and is no longer available.
Shipping from HK would take a month, ordered 1 at $37.5
Not sure why is this a bargain when the ALDI watch are sale for 39.99. They have a magnetic charger and can be used more of a watch rather than a band with all the same functions.
You're comparing Miband 5 vs Aldi smart watch? Why are you even on ozbargain, just shop at the Reject Shop or $2 shop and you'll always get a bargain.
