Design And Build Quality

It’s impossible to talk about the Mibro Lite 2 without mentioning how beautiful the design is. This model has a lot to envy, unlike other competing devices, as soon as the Lite 2 is extracted from the box, the smartwatch presents itself to us in all its glory, with its metal body of great rigidity and its large 1.3-inch circular AMOLED panel and it looks elegant with its 2.5D curved glass. We can guarantee that the first impression will be positive. The rounded face and simple curved body remind me of the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2, so the smartwatch is sure to be stylish in all situations, whether you want to use it for sporting activities or more events.

Truth be told, from a build point of view, after several days of use, I have yet to find any flaws in this component for its price, resulting in a glossy finish and no scratches just like day one. The same applies, of course, to the different sensors placed on the lower bezel, as well as to the two buttons crown and flat on the right, the upper one is rotatable and clickable and through it, you can directly access the main menu and the other one to the sports modes. To make calls, just below the button, you’ll find the microphone, and the addition of holes in the left part, which is the built-in speaker.

The strap is one of the important things to complete the overall look of the watch, which is why it is made of silicone there is another one from leather, it’s lightweight and comfortable on your wrist for long-term use and does not feel on the wrist in the least. And because it’s removable, you can use any 22mm strap.

Display Screen

On the other hand, Mibro has invested heavily in the most important aspect of the smartwatch which is the amazing display quality, I am happy to say that I was completely impressed with its display on the Mibro Lite 2. When I first turned on the watch, I was immediately greeted with vividly saturated colors and deep shades of black that blend almost seamlessly with the bezel.

By far, the most notable part of the Lite 2 is the large, bright, customizable 1.3-inch 360*360-pixel AMOLED display with 4 dials of always-on mode that lets you view the current time, how many steps you’ve taken while walking, the battery level, message notifications you’ve received on your smartphone and various other information will be available without you necessarily needing to unlock the watch, making It keeps you aware of every important moment in your life around the watch. There’s a library of watch faces, though you’ll need to install most of the new faces through the Mibro Fit app on your smartphone.

That’s why a sharp, vivid screen is central to the success of a smartwatch product, and the watch face stands out, and this is something Apple does very well in its watches. Also worth noting is the peak brightness that is capable of rendering content on the screen even in direct sunlight. Texts and numbers are crystal clear for reading. Therefore, there is no problem in displaying various contents on the screen. The contrast and sharpness offered by 60Hz elevate this panel on par with most popular competitors.

Mibro Lite 2 Watch faces

If you’re tired of the system’s default dial wallpaper, Mibro has made concerted efforts to design a slew of versatile watch faces with customization support so you can choose from over 100 watch faces with different themes from the app. Custom watch faces are also available, letting you choose one that perfectly matches your mood and outfit. You can easily switch between them in many ways, by long-pressing on the home screen or via the Mibro Fit app, or simply using the rotating top button. It has included a variety of retro, analog, 3D, and digital faces, or you can even use your own as a watch face wallpaper or any background and have the ability to customize. And with the wrist feature to wake the screen and always-on mode, that would be great.

Waterproof

Like the previous smartwatches for Mibro, the Mibro Lite 2 has a 5ATM Waterproof certification, which is a great upgrade so you can put it on during the shower or in the pool and you can wear it when washing hands or on rainy days, what makes this rating better than IP68 is the possibility of using the watch for swimming because it can withstand pressure at 50 meters of depth Water, And this you will not find in any other smartwatch. However, exposure to saltwater or hot water can damage it, and avoid any harm Long or short term and with the presence of a speaker and a microphone, avoiding it will be good, however, if it’s exposed to water in any way, I prefer to dry the watch after immersing it in water and before operating it so that it stays with you for as long as possible.

How To Use Mibro Lite 2

The screen responded to scrolling and taps without the slightest delay or uncertainty, as you can navigate within the different menus thanks to different gestures on the screen with which to perform the following actions:

• Swiping from the top reveals the Control Center, where we find the option to activate the lock screen, do not disturb mode, adjust brightness, general settings, and more. It also gives you a percentage of your battery, and see if your phone is connected to this watch.

• swipe up: access notifications, which can only be viewed on the screen but are impossible to interact with in any way;

• Swipe left or right: With this gesture, you can access some summary pages that display activity status, heart rate, sleep, Music player, and weather. Going to the right, you will obviously go around in a loop and get to the main quarter, which can be changed at any time.

The main menu can be accessed by pressing the top button, you will find Music control/music play | Stress | Breath | Calendar | Shake to take pictures | Find watch | Do not disturb | Power saving mode | Sedentary reminder | Alarm | Weather | Timer | Calculator | Stop watch | Screen locking | Password setting, and more. Also, it supports 3 viewing modes (cellular, waterfall, and list views) You can change between them by double-clicking the crown button.

Hardware & Connectivity

Under the body, we find a sector of hardware in line with this price range, the Mibro Lite 2 has some significant changes which come with a dual-core Bluetooth main control chip, low power consumption dual-core architecture, and a built-in 2.5D 240MHz GPU graphic processing unit for faster response speed and faster data processing and is paired with storage for storing contacts, watch faces, notifications, and more. The sensor on this device is Heart Rate its one of the best in this market and is known for giving good results and will help you take better care of your health and encourage you to work out more.

So the Lite 2 is equipped with Bluetooth 5.1 allows a strong wireless connection with the smartphone quickly and accurately with the possibility of making calls directly from your watch and without delay. Turning to the application developed by the brand, in fact, we see how the information detected by the smartwatch is transmitted to the application fairly quickly. Also, it’s able to manage all operations in the best possible way. Among the latter we have: measured heart rate, blood oxygen, stress, and temperature, albeit with an accuracy that is acceptable for its price. Then getting up with the wrist movement is excellent, fast, and fairly accurate. Finally, the absence of a built-in GPS and NFC module will force you to rely on your smartphone.

Health & Fitness Functions

The Mibro Lite 2 is competitive in all aspects that a smartwatch mainly needs. Taking a look at the sports activities, it is clear that the company wanted to provide everything necessary to facilitate the end user. With more than 60 types of exercise, Lite 2 is prepared for practically any type of exercise, from walking to cycling, through all winter sports and those involving the use of the ball. By scrolling through this list, in fact, it is possible to explore the different options, finding in fact countless different activities. But the main factors, after all, are always the same and are suggested as follows: outdoor running, indoor running, outdoor walking, indoor walking, outdoor cycling, indoor cycling, climbing Mountain, hiking, elliptical running, rowing machine, free workout.

In addition to physical activity, the Mibro Lite 2 is equipped with various sensors to detect heart rate, and track sleep, stress, SpO2 level, and breathing rate. And Mibro did not disappoint me in tracking the heart rate as it was very accurate and it works 24 hours a day, you are connected all the time regarding the heartbeat and when there is a spike in these readings, you will be alerted immediately, and all of this applies to SpO2 too. As for step tracking, while it’s pretty generous with step counting, it’s still surprisingly accurate for a watch that costs just $65. As expected from Mibro!

There is also an option to test your mood, although I am not sure about its sufficiency. However, I was quite satisfied with the results obtained from sleep monitoring by detecting the time you fall asleep and the time you wake up. So I think Mibro has done a great job in this regard, and also showed us many other data related to deep sleep and light sleep.

In short, as a smartwatch to track fitness, health, and sports, we can say that Mibro Lite 2 does a good enough job for us. Also, remember that monitoring data and results are for reference only and not for diagnosis or treatment.

Mibro Fit App For Mibro Lite 2

On the phone side, the work Mibro has done on the Mibro Fit app has been painstaking, though it reminds us of other Chinese companies and how they designed their fitness apps. If you have used an Amazfit or Huawei watch, this app will look very similar.
This can be easily found on the Apple Store and Play Store and is absolutely free. It is therefore simply necessary to open it, add the smartwatch and wait for the entire configuration phase.

How To Pair The Mibro Lite 2

Connecting the smartwatch to your phone is very simple:

• Turn on the Bluetooth of the watch and mobile phone.
• Click Add device in the APP settings to connect the watch to the APP.
• iPhone phones need to agree to app display message notifications, Android phones need to agree to read all notification permissions such as contact information, and agree to app background operation in the settings.

How Mibro Fit App Works

Once all operations are completed, the various information detected by the wearable device will also be quickly reported on the APP. As in previous models, the user interface is easy to navigate, which at least from a graphic point of view is coherent and intuitive. In fact, from the main screen, we can instantly get an overview of our activities, as well as take a look at our heart rate, sleep monitoring, pressure, and body weight.
Set various heart rate monitoring options, enable notifications from different apps, set a reminder, and much more. But not only that, because in addition to all the various information on the smartwatch itself, it is possible to display more data within each individual area on the main page of the application. By clicking on the heart rate square, for example, we immediately see the full graph for the day, with all the different measurements, as well as data on the average frequency, and maximum and minimum beats.

Bluetooth Calling On Mibro Lite 2

Unlike other “smartwatches” that only notify you when a call arrives, One of the most attention-grabbing highlights of the Mibro Lite 2 is the ability you can answer your smartphone calls directly from the smartwatch. Just sync them via Bluetooth 5.1 and, as soon as you receive a call, click on the button that will appear on your watch’s screen to answer it.
it’s equipped with an integrated microphone and a speaker, with the former serving up surprisingly clear sound that can be heard over general din (such as road noise), making it usable, As for the microphone, it’s mainly used for on-wrist calls or, if you’re paired to a smartphone. So it not only displays an incoming call but can also receive and dial calls made via Bluetooth directly from the watch with good sound from the speakers and a mic, and of course, this is done with your smartphone, So you don’t have to take out the phone of your pocket every time you want to make or answer a simple call.

This smartwatch lets you save important and frequently-called contacts so that you don’t have to dig through an extensive contact list to make a call, especially when you’re pressed for time. also features a dial pad that enables you to make calls quickly and conveniently.

To enable Bluetooth Calling Function on this smartwatch, you need to first connect it to the compatible app. Once connected, you need to manually go to the phone’s Bluetooth settings and pair this smartwatch (Bluetooth Name: Mibro Lite 2). Upon pairing, you will get a notification: Connected for calls and audio.

Notifications

Notifications on the Mibro Lite 2 arrive quickly and are clear and easily readable. And you won’t miss important messages or notifications. However, you cannot reply to messages. The watch syncs with your smartphone to display incoming calls, messages, social media (Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter), and other app notifications, allowing you to stay connected even when you’re on the move.

Mibro Lite 2 Battery Life & Charging Time

The battery performance of the Lite 2 varies depending on how you use it and what you use it for, as some features will drain the battery more. And because it has a capacity of 350 mAh battery allows a standby time of up to 60 days. For continuous use, the brand advertises 12 days with 24/7 heart monitor use. The watch charges in about two hours.

However, this is on paper but in reality, it may differ slightly since when fully charged, the watch barely managed to reach the end of the 5 days. This difference in endurance is mostly due to the always-on feature, which may have affected performance. With its battery saver, it’s possible to increase battery life by 12 days by turning off Bluetooth connectivity and features like heart rate monitoring, leaving you with basics like steps and time. Despite all this, I can say that the battery of the Mibro Lite 2 is impressive.

Final Verdict

Mibro Lite 2 is one of the most popular smartwatches on the market right now. It is a high-performance smartwatch that is available at a very affordable price. It comes with features that you would find in relatively expensive smartwatches. The smartwatch comes with a 1.3″ AMOLED screen with the ability to make calls and many useful features that you will need every day.

It also comes with amazingly accurate health and sports sensors. In addition, it has a 2ATM water resistance capability with 60 sports modes, which will track your exercises and help you achieve your fitness goals. The battery life of the smartwatch is amazingly long 12 days longer than many of its competitors in the market.

I really like wearing the Lite 2 on my wrist even though it only provides the basic functions, but it knows how to do it! It is also light in weight and looks much more expensive than it costs. I can wear this watch comfortably on my wrist for an entire day without feeling any fatigue at all.

It will undoubtedly be difficult to exclude it from our list of the best affordable smartwatches in this category. Making it stand out from the rest of the smartwatches on the market and deviating from the usual in terms of screen, hardware, and even the new software was more than wonderful. Even the rest of the features were more than satisfactory and includes the overall performance and smooth system navigation. Therefore, it is among the most accurate watches we’ve seen.
