Xiaomi Watch S3: 9 HIDDEN Features You MUST Know! 

Hey by any chance are you using an iPhone with the Watch S3? The sub-reddit link below seems to suggest the emoji support is fine with Android phones connected to Xioami watches. Not sure if it helps, but yeah it's annoying. It didn't make much difference to me as the watch never showed messages more than the 1st or 2nd line anyway so emojis, if any, were cut off by the watch. Someone else in the comments also mentioned about the emojis support. Cheers for pointing it out to everyone in the comments 🙌🏼 www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=www.reddit.com/r/smartwatch/comments/1bf826k/emoji_support_on_redmi_watch_4/&ved=2ahUKEwiQuKj4162HAxWacKQEHT1HD30QFnoECA4QAQ&usg=AOvVaw1FZYMnaTm1dUBgnamfB2Gz

Here are the key settings you can adjust: Warm-Up Time: Set the duration for your warm-up phase before starting the intervals. High-Intensity Interval Duration: Specify the length of time for each high-intensity interval. Low-Intensity Interval Duration: Set the duration for the recovery or low-intensity intervals. Number of Intervals: Choose how many intervals you want to complete in your workout. Cool-Down Time: Set the duration for the cool-down phase after completing the intervals. Hope this helps 🙂

Yeah I didn't see a calculator on it either.

Maybe in the next update?

Hi! There's an issue with emoji support on the Xiaomi Watch S3. Not sure if the sub-reddit link below helps, but yeah it's annoying. It didn't make much difference to me as the watch never showed messages more than the 1st or 2nd line anyway so emojis, if any, were cut off by the watch. Someone else in the comments of my other Xiaomi Watch S3 video also mentioned about the emojis support. www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=www.reddit.com/r/smartwatch/comments/1bf826k/emoji_support_on_redmi_watch_4/&ved=2ahUKEwiQuKj4162HAxWacKQEHT1HD30QFnoECA4QAQ&usg=AOvVaw1FZYMnaTm1dUBgnamfB2Gz

Hi! Check out my full in-depth review and the comments section there: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xKbocmw6fBM.html I answered your query in the comments section there :-)

@@thewearableist I really like how it looks, has so many practical features

💯 it does

Hi! You can transfer music downloaded on your phone straight to the Watch S3 after which you can listen to it straight from the watch. There are, however, no Spotify/Deezer/Prime Music apps on this watch so you can only transfer music you've downloaded manually on your phone to the watch. Hope this helps 🙂

@@thewearableist it helps i lot thanks can i tell me how many song i can download in avrage

Hi! I don't believe there is voice feedback from Alexa on the Watch S3 - atleast I couldn't see any option or setting for this. All responses and feedback from Alexa were just displayed on the screen for me.

Thanks bro😊 Keep it up!

@existentialbaby hello. It's somewhere

@@thewearableist thank you for replying.

No worries

Hi! Nope, you're not alone, I've had this as well when I was reviewing the Watch S3. Also, occasionally, it would only show small previews of messages, WhatsApp, emails, etc, rather than full messages. Only sometimes, it shows the entire message. Thanks for pointing that out to everyone 🙌🏼

@@thewearableist I previously had a Xiaomi S1 Active, so, a previous model, an older one, and that one displayed emojis perfectly... I was negatively surprised that S3 doesn't have emojis support... I don't know if this could be fixed in some way but it is a minus for S3 that, otherwise, is really ok from many points of view... but nowadays emojis are being used all the time so this is something I can't understand...

Yeah agreed it might be a software fix from Xiaomi further down the line, but surprised to hear the watch S1 could do it but S3 struggles with this.

@@thewearableist yeah, S1 active, still shows emojis perfectly as it is used by my wife now... So her older model shows emoji but mine, that is newer, doesn't... I was shocked that there are almost NO reviews on S3 that would point the lack of emoji support... Only 2-3 reports of others like myself and that is all...

Hey by any chance are you using an iPhone with the Watch S3? The sub-reddit link below seems to suggest the emoji support is fine with Android phones connected to Xioami watches. I had connected the S3 to an iPhone when reviewing. Not sure if it helps, but yeah it's weird. It didn't make much difference to me as the watch never showed messages more than the 1st or 2nd line anyway so emojis, if any, we're cut off by the watch. It's still weird though, I agree.

Hi! It depends on what banks in your country have signed up to Mi Pay (it's a very restricted list as far as I have seen). And only Mastercards work with Mi Pay. To see the list of supported banks: 1. Download the Mi Fitness, Xiaomi Wear, or Xiaomi Wear Lite app​ 2. Activate your Mi account by choosing your country.​ 3. Activate your Mi Smart Band via your Mi account. ​ 4. In the tab “Devices”, choose ”Fitness bracelet Mi Smart Band 6 NFC” ​5. Open tab “Bank card” and enter your Mastercard card data​ 6. Confirm the authorisation via SMS Hope it helps 😀

​@thewearableist it's worth noting that "Curve", which is available in many countries, will be accepted into xiaomi pay. Where I live for example no banks are supported, but curve is, so I can just make a curve account, add my card there, and add the curve card to the watch.

Hi! Can you please clarify what is not connecting? Alexa?

For India, it won't connect. On your mi fitness app, you need to select a different country like Hong Kong or UK 🇬🇧 or anything else, it'll detect the watch. Since it's not released in India, you won't be able to pair it with the app. I'm assuming that's what you asked.

Ok thanks

For the money it’s a very good watch and the build quality is great it’s very eye catching. I have the silver bezel one with a nice thick silicone orange strap. I managed to link up my bank of Scotland debit card to the nfc using the curve app. I do have pixel watch but prefer this . That was a good review 😊

@datatrax1966 that's great! I need to get me a Curve card as I can then link my banks to Garmin as well.

Ok thanks
