Hello everyone, welcome to Geekbuying
Today we are going to unbox and review the Mijia Electric Scooter PRO
We will focus mainly on its industrial design and user experience to give you a general idea of how it is
and whether it’s worth buying or not.
Open the box, we see the handlebar and the main body of the scooter,
there is a bag with five screws and a screwdriver,
instructions,
charging cable, power adapter and a hose to pump up the tires
My first impression of the scooter is “holy smoke it’s so heavy”
but that could be a good thing
Because to some extent, weight means quality, and the riding stability is likely to be better
Of course, you can say it is not very easy to carry around.
It is very simple to assemble:
first put these wires into the stem
then put the handlebar on the stem,
and last screw these 4 screws to fix the handlebar
Done!
The wheels of the Mijia Scooter Pro are still the same as the first generation:
same material and diameter, both adopt – as the official called –
“hot-melt pneumatic tire, which generates excellent shock absorption and better traction on multi-terrain roads”.
Move to the front, we saw the handle, the brake handle, a bell,
a display that shows info crystal clear even under the direct sunlight, we’ll get to that later
and the throttle.
There is a front headlight and back red taillight, they are bright!
On the pedal, we can see there are a lot of protrusions,
which increases the friction and safety when you are riding.
You can also see a Mijia logo.
Finally, there is a charging port and a foot stand on the left side, nothing more on the right or bottom.
To fold it, it’s very easy, move the buckle to the right side, use a bit of force to lower the handle down,
put down the stem, and the button of the bell will buckle on the protrusion of the rear wheel cover
now you can carry it.
The whole design feels premium, elegant and refined.
Check all these well thought details on the scooter: polished shell,
sleek color matching,
the heavy metal underbelly engineered for strength and weight
This thing is a piece of art! Thumbs up for the superb design!
Short press the power button to turn on the PRO
place one foot on the board, one foot on the ground to slide a short distance
press the throttle at the same time
Here you go!
Even a person who has never had experience riding any type of scooter can be an expert in one minute.
I gotta say the riding experience of the Mijia Electric Scooter PRO is the best of all the scooters I have ever ridden.
It is really stable and comfortable on the flat concrete floor, even on a less flat road like this.
When going uphill, the powerful motor can easily outperform other scooters as well.
More importantly, during the riding we found the sound is very quiet and even soothing, check out.
The screen that comes with the scooter making the riding experience even better,
it shows all the basic information you need like battery juice, speed mode etc.
In the power-on state, short press once to turn on the front and rear lights;
short press twice to switch between ECO, D and S modes,
the speed is 15km / h, 20km / h and 25km / h respectively.
What’s more, you can connect pro to your phone:
Download the Mi Home App, add the scooter PRO.
After the connection is successful, you can see that there is a Bluetooth icon on the screen.
The first time you connect, the app will remind you to set a password.
In the app, the home page shows your scooter battery level, average speed etc.
Slide to the right to lock, at this time, any operation on the scooter will be disabled, slide to the left to unlock.
Click on the top right corner to see some of basic information, such as cruise control, password resetting or firmware update etc.
To my surprise, there is also an Energy Recovery Strength option here,
whatever that is, it seems good for the battery life, although I have not tested it yet, thumbs up for that if useful.
Just like I said in the video Mijia Electric Scooter pro is the best among all the scooters I’ve used bc of
its excellent workmanship - it combines the design aesthetics and practicality;
its overall safe and stable riding experience, for the brake system is the same as the first generation, the E-ABS on the front tire and disk brake on the rear tire
And the long battery life, it can reach up to 45km, which is 15km more than the first generation;
Beyond all that, I can list even more about its advantages such as easy to fold, extra bright lights and silent operation
Whether you want to buy it as a gift to give to someone or you want it for self-commuting
It is definitely a major go.
Of course, if you have to say some cons of it then would be it is a bit too heavy?
about 2KG heavier than the first generation, that makes even more difficult for a girl to carry up the stairs;
second is the tire, the inflatable tire gives a super stable experience
but because of that so you have to pump it up few times each year
and get a bit worried of something puncturing the tire,
however, that is not likely to happen.
At the same time, I noticed it’s easy to get worn,
the first day I took the scooter out of the box, folded it a few times and then I found I scratched the tire cover!
Also I noticed the paint was gone (here) after a few days of use
That sucks!
In terms of price, it is about $150 more than the first generation on our site (Check the link in the description)
but the range was increased by 15KM.
If range is important to you, the Miajia Pro is worth the extra cost.
But if you are satisfied with a range of 30KM, the first generation is just fine!
So to conclude: If you ignore those small flaws and the price is not what you consider at all, then go for it!
You won't regret it!
But if price is your major concern then I would recommend the first generation of Mijia Electric Scooter
or the KUGOO S1
They are not bad at all!
Alright! That’s it, thank you for watching
