Design And Build Quality

The Mibro X1 smartwatch has a circular design that looks very clean and elegant in black color and features an aluminum frame, giving it the look of an expensive watch, it really is amazing, And it has two physical to home and the sports. Overall, the body is slim and light and made of high-quality aluminum alloy which makes it lightweight at just 52g and therefore comfortable on the wrist.

If you look at the back, there’s nothing out of the ordinary, just a plastic cover with magnetic charging pins and a heart rate sensor.

Display Screen

The screen in Mibro X1 is my favorite type and one of the strengths of this smartwatch, it has been upgraded from a normal TFT panel to an AMOLED panel with 1.3 inches and 2.5D curved to display better content and details, and because it has a resolution of 360*360 pixels with a high refresh rate. This is what makes it good screens in a budget smartwatch in terms of size and resolution, even the sharpness of colors and brightness are so good, especially when you wear them in the sunlight you won’t be alarmed by them.

In fact, the reason to make this type of screen my favorite, because this screen is large and takes over most of the interface, and with narrow sides, and this is only found in smartwatches with higher costs. This is in contrast to other inexpensive smartwatches that contain a touch screen, which comes in the middle of the screen and has rather wide sides.

Mibro X1 Watch faces

If you are tired of the system default dial background, Mibro X1 Smartwatch has many pre-installed watch faces, you can switch between them easily by long pressing on the home screen or via the Mibro Fit app for more watch faces with over 100 online watch faces are available for download with customization capabilities for a variety of colors, retro, analog, 3D, and digital faces or your own photos as a watch face background or any wallpaper. And with the wrist-raised feature to wake up the screen, that would be great.

Waterproof

The Mibro X1 is water-resistant with 5ATM protection, 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.

Regardless of that, I do not recommend swimming or exposing it to hot water or saltwater to avoid any harm Long or short term.

Under The Hood

When it comes to performance, Mibro X1 Smartwatch adopts the built-in chip for faster response speed and faster data processing, For your health, this device has a Low-power dynamic optical heart rate sensor, so this wearable device manages your motion every moment and takes good care of you throughout the day.

Although it has a good sensor that is more accurate than other sensors, this does not mean that the measurements provided by this smartwatch are completely accurate, as most of them are largely unreliable because it’s not a medical instrument, but it makes you very aware of your health and physical performance. unfortunately, this is often the case with watches in this price range.

Mibro Fit App For Mibro X1 Smartwatch

Mibro X1 is compatible with the Mibro Fit app for Android and iOS to help you set up and use the watch more efficiently. Unfortunately, it is not the best and does not compare with Samsung / Amazfit or Huawei apps neither in terms of appearance or even language, except that it contains the basic functions that fit this watch with a rather smooth performance.

Mibro X1 Battery Life & Charging Time

In the end, The battery size on the Mibro X1 is something that is considered somewhat positive, as you get 350 mAh which gives you up to 15 days of battery life. but this is done with the reduced operation of the heart monitor, turning off notifications, and other features. In any case, X1 guarantees us at least 7 days for heavy use with heart rate monitoring and notifications turned on, and it will charge through the magnetic charger in about 2 hours.
