    Not a smart watch, but a Mi Band fitness tracker.

    Pros:

    • works well enough
    • Private
    • data visualizations are great
    • Advanced sleep tracking
    • Lots of customization features

    Cons:

    • needs 3rd party app to sync weather
    • Doesn’t exit cleanly
    • Calendar sync has never worked for me (even though I gave it necessary permissions )
