Hey, what’s up? Sami here.
This is the Mi Band 7, I bought it several days ago
and I’ve using it heavily in the past few days.
It’s hard to say I like it, especially compared it to the Huawei Band 7.
The comparison review video of the two will be on my channel several days later
once I used them even more.
So please subscribe to my channel if you haven’t.
While today in this video, I will show you something special about the Mi Band 7.
Just like I’ve shown at the beginning of this video, I used the Mi Band 7 for gaming,
calculating, or even e-book browsing.
In the next, I’m going to show you how to achieve these cool features!
They are cool, right?
Just like my sponsor Geekbuying’s 10th anniversary promotion.
There are massive coupons, crazy deals and giveaways, make sure to check it out,
the link is in the description.
Before we get started please make sure to download the App MT Manager and Zepp Life.
Connect your Mi Band 7 to the Zepp Life.
Go to “Store” to choose any watch face and sync to your Mi Band.
This step takes about 20 seconds and yeah please memorize this watch face you’ve chosen.
Then we download the file “Dinowatchface.bin”.
For where to download the file, I have put a link in the description,
make sure to check it out.
Then we open this file with MT Manager.
On the right column, we select “Android” file, click “data”, scroll down to find
the file “com.xiaomi.hm.health”, click in, go to “files”, then we can see the
“watch_skin_local” file.
Tap it, find the watch face file we just synced to the Mi Band.
Remember I just reminded you to memorize it?
Then we long press the bin file on the right side, copy its name.
Then we long press the “dinowatchface.bin” on the left side and paste the name we just copied.
Then we move the bin file from the left side to the right side.
Select “Move and replace” and click “OK”.
That’s the step on the MT Manager.
Moving to the Zepp Life, under the previous synced watch face interface,
we click “Sync with face” and wait about 30 seconds.
Bang, the new watch face has synced to your Mi Band!
Here we click on the watch face and then we can have fun with it.
The same method to install the calculator, other small games, and e-book.
BTW, the newest e-book watch face supports up to 10 books
and each book offers up to 500,000 characters.
All links for downloading these watch faces I have put in the description,
you can check them out and try them for yourself.
You may wonder how this was possible on the Mi Band 7 while not on the previous generations.
My guess is they have upgraded to a more powerful CPU.
I’ve mentioned this in my previous review of the Mi Band 7.
Still, we can’t directly install apps on it, we can use watch faces as the carrier.
Just imagine we could program all those classic games like Tetris or Snake
and apply them to the Mi Band 7.
That would be much more fun than any of its predecessors. Right?
Of course, we just can’t forget to give big thanks to our hard-working developers
like GiveMeFive and NEWORUAA from the forum bandbbs.cn.
Without them, this video would be impossible.
While playing games or reading e-books on a 1.56” screen doesn’t sound like a good idea,
it’s the spirit that inspired us.
Never stop exploring, is it?
Alright, that’s the video.
What are you gonna do with the Mi Band 7?
Let me know in the comments.
Please don’t forget to subscribe.
I will always share such interesting tech videos beyond those normal ones.
Thanks for watching.
I’m Sami and I will see you in the next one.
