Do you charge your phone daily? For me just reach home put the watch in the dock.
Mi band features are no match even can last 20 to 30 days. I go out these days I only wear my gear sport = gear, shopping spay gear , calender gear, notification and reminder gear, answer calls and make calls if phone in bag.
Lastly it looks like a normal watch but work as smartwatch while mi band like children watch.
Band itself is not comparable to Watch anyway, because is so slim and compact till you can wear anywhere like showering and sleeping (or maybe swimming? sorry I dont swim lol)
So is very personal preference to wear watch or band. I charge my watch on dock every night like my phone. but if you have multiple location to access charging is less convenient compare to a smartphone.
Like myself. I can charge my phone at
1. home
2. car
3. office
4. friend house
5. my in law house
whenever I feel that I need to charge and/or my battery is low as long I can find Type C (or Micro USB if anyone still using and/or lightning cable)
but for my watch (or any watch out there) that need to charge daily or 2 days still not quite convenient unless it support wireless charging on flat surface, at least we can utilise the reverse wireless charging or wireless charging pad.
for my own scenario. I have to get at least 5 dock or charging cradle for the watch (depend your model) to allow myself charge anywhere, anytime.
