Smart watches are becoming increasingly available in the market, as Hardware and software have been steadily improving, as prices have dropped. In recent months we have surprised the fun with the first Xiaomi smart watch with Wear OS: Xiaomi Mi Watch.
Although this phone is set for the Chinese market, on iFixit they were able to access the unit to make one of their favorite photos. How easy is it to adjust a smart watch for this style?
This is the Xiaomi Mi Watch inside
In an age when electronics are becoming increasingly integrated, we are getting more and more difficult calls to fix until advanced models are not possible. Same thing with smart watches? If we know how small they are, it would make sense to think so.
At iFixit ask this same question and to solve it they have decided to skip the Xiaomi ride clock.
The hardest part of disassembly is the screen, which is not always easy. These types of devices are usually lubricated with an attachment, and to be able to unlock them often install multiple heaters and use the right tool. This is an intriguing part of the vision you employ, because at iFixit they guarantee that during the process you will end up causing a clock-like damage.
Once dispersed, we find a clock where many things are standard and can be easily changed. It is also possible to drain the battery although first it is important to remove the motherboard.
Overall, iFixit gave it 4 out of 10 points on its repeat test, indicating that it is possible to unlock and fix it, even though it is not easy. So Do you have to separate the clock? Well it doesn't seem like a good idea, because in addition to physical damage you will lose symptoms such as water resistance.
