There must be 100s of Smart watches and fitness band Brands N Types around, but for me Xiaomi produce a functional fitness pedometer around with a clock, superb battery life though the looks are a bit lacking. 

Well to cut the story shot, I drop my Mi Band 2 some where and with a metal strap to boot.  How come?  I found out that if I fasten my Mi Band to my belt, its more accurate,  well I did not strap it on properly.  So a replacement is required.

I decided to purchase through Lelong.com through one of the shops there, and after browsing through Price range from RM92 to RM 160 plus though those come with extra straps, or metal bracelets, leather straps, extra chargers.  I decided to purchase from a particular shop that I have purchase from before  Just for the Std package, RM94.50 per unit, + RM6 for Postage and Paying by Credit card charges all coming up to RM103.75 via Net Pay.  This is somewhat cheaper then the Official Xiaomi Price of RM128

So I ordered and paid around 9am Day 1, at 2pm Day 2, Item have arrive in my hands. That like 30 hours from ordering to arrival, Excellent Service, Fast, Efficient & Cheaper, I will definitely put tradeshoppe on top of my buy again priority lists. 

So now for my next problem,  My original Mi Band, could not charge properly so I was unable to unpair it, when my original Mi Band 2 arrive,  so I know I may encounter some problems.  So I browse through the net and read some solutions and opinions.
