Xiaomi Mijia Electric Scooter

Advantages: Ease of use, light weight (relatively). Ready to use instantly. Can be folded and unfolded quickly. Mileage from one charge in 20 km is not so little. I would like to believe that after a year or two, the capacity of the built-in batteries will not drop so much. The built-in lantern, despite its seeming compactness, shines and illuminates very well, I was surprised.

Disadvantages: Much is said about tire wiping and steering play. Let's see, time will tell. Lack of mileage and speed indicators on the scooter itself. By connecting smart all this can be seen, but for this it is boring to think about fasteners.

Comment: It is important to think over and choose the route of movement in advance. Try to avoid uneven surfaces. Ideal for this scooter is smooth and level asphalt. Large tiles, paving stones, tiles and even markings at pedestrian crossings deliver decent vibrations to the whole body. If there is an option to use public transport with a scooter, then you should think about the convenience of getting on and off when there are a lot of people. After all, folding into a completely compact version will not work. Attention: Xiaomi has released a scooter that looks completely similar, but with a less capacious battery, which is successfully used by dealers who are not clean on the hand. Model with 7800 mA battery - Mijia M365, with 5200 mA battery - Mijia M187.

Advantages: Cheap compared to competitors, simple. Riding is a lot of fun, a great way to get around town in summer.

Disadvantages: The wheels are weak, even if you pump up 3.5 atmospheres, as recommended on the forums, it is easy to break through any irregularities, so you have to drive relatively carefully. I will probably order myself solid rubber tubeless tires on Aliexpress. The folding unit in the steering wheel is made flimsy, it seems that problems will arise with it after a while. Despite the fact that it weighs only 12.5 kilograms, the scooter is still quite bulky and heavy, it is not very convenient to carry it with you in transport, although it is possible. Do not think that you will be comfortable with him on the metro or on the bus and then there will be no disappointment.

Comment: I live in the Moscow region, I go to work in Moscow by train. I bought it in order to travel from the Yaroslavsky railway station to work in the Electrozavodskaya metro area, about 4 kilometers. On foot for about 40-45 minutes, too far for a walk, which must be done twice a day. Public transport routes are not very convenient, it still turns out 15 minutes on foot and 15 minutes in transport, plus an unpredictable waiting time, sometimes you have to stand for 15-20 minutes at a bus stop. On a scooter I get to work in 10-12 minutes steadily, in summer it is very convenient and pleasant.

Advantages: Good scooter, rides briskly, good build quality, great design.

Disadvantages: I think the disadvantage is that Xiaomi has released a twin brother, but with a less capacious battery, which is successfully used by dealers who are not clean on hand. Model with 7800 mA battery - Mijia M365, with 5200 mA battery - Mijia M187.

Comment: Be careful when buying, as sellers hide this fact, hoping for ignorance of buyers. The site may contain a description from an older model with a declared power reserve of 30 km, in fact they are selling a model with a less capacious battery and a power reserve of 20 km. You can notice the difference in the Ninebot or MiHome mobile application. In the battery parameters, if the capacity is 5200 mA, then this is the younger model M187, if 7800 mA, then this is your horse. Good luck to everyone, be careful.

Advantages: The material and appearance, everything looks very high quality and thoughtful, I must admit it was Mijia that accidentally swept past me that prompted me to buy, it seemed to me very easy and convenient to get to the metro and from it to work. Very simple control, few settings from the phone.

Disadvantages: However, in fact, the scooter is much heavier than it seems (although it seems to be quite light in comparison with other models), it will be very uncomfortable with it in public transport, and it is better to forget about a trip to the metro at rush hour altogether. The handles do not fold, which is why the scooter, even when folded, is very cumbersome. On the paving slabs, he almost does not notice joints, but even small pits do not go unnoticed, it is not suitable for a primer. It would not hurt at least some ring through which it would be possible to fasten the lock in the parking lot, it would be awkward to enter a store or office with such a device ... Almost immediately the brake began to creak, on the brake disc there is a small figure eight because of which it was fiddling for more than an hour with fitting brakes so as not to cling

Comment: This is my first electric scooter, so it is difficult to compare with others, so the review is based only on my expectations and what I received. Inflate your tires immediately after purchase - although they look inflated, they are actually almost empty. Ideal for driving on sidewalks and park paths, but don't rely on public transportation.

Advantages: Super price-quality-comfort ratio. It rides well with my weight 85-90kg with a load. Turns on / off instantly. In fact, I pressed on, jumped on it, and drove at a speed of 25 km. This is truly an experience like the transport of the future. It is convenient to travel with him to the MCC, less convenient in the subway in mid-hour, unrealistic at rush hour. There is enough charge to get tired of going anywhere in a day. The only bad thing is that there is not enough for two such long trips / two days. It feels like charging an iPhone. Only there is no power bank. Inflatable wheels + large diameter perfectly dampen tiles, etc. Never compare with a simple scooter (it was oxelo town 7). Good grip and stability! Likewise, better than any simple scooter. Feels like (the first self-propelled personal transport) - a plague! The way he drives is drop dead. I thought I would get bored faster. The final plus is its design and high-quality assembly. Red dot award.

Disadvantages: In my version, there was a backlash in the folding mechanism assembly. In theory, it is fixed by adding a washer to the axle. But I'm too lazy to do this, I laid the node with 6 layers of electrical tape and everything is ok. Would have liked more charging so as not to recharge every time after a long trip. Not for fragile girls who I think to cut a lot with him around the city and in transport. Man, pump the bittsuha while you raise / lower him up the subway stairs. Want less weight. I want more dynamics when climbing a hill.

Comment: Now the mileage is 60 km in a month of not very active use. There have been no incidents with punctured wheels or wiping the camera. Just in case, I ordered spare ones from Ali.

Advantages: - price - recuperative front and manual rear brake (disc)

Disadvantages: It's hard with him in public transport.

Comment: At the moment, we have been using the device for 3 weeks, the mileage is 205 km, until nothing is broken, not frayed. The tires were inflated by me to 3.5 ATM once immediately after purchase. After 30 kilometers, the rudder folding unit really began to play and creak under load on the steering wheel, it does not really interfere. The lower plastic cover was immediately changed to an aluminum one; it is sold under the name "ProDeckFull protection for the deck of the Xiaomi MiJia Scooter". The device has two modes of operation: - normal: fast acceleration, the maximum speed on a flat surface is 25 km / h, the rider drags 100 kg up a hill with a slope of 15 degrees - economical: slow acceleration, max. speed on a flat surface less than 20 km / h, 100kg. drags up the hill no more than 5 degrees. Economy mode is activated by double pressing the Power button when the scooter is already on, while the lower LED of the charge indicator glows green. Economy mode only saves energy through less aggressive acceleration and slower speeds. When driving on a crossroad and against strong winds, there is no savings. With a weight of 100 kg (myself), the battery lasts 15 km on the way with four / five elevation changes of 10-15 m and calm weather. With a strong headwind on the same route, the mileage drops to 12-13 km. Weighing 50 kg (my son), the same route, calm weather, the battery is enough for the 30 km declared in the performance characteristics. When you accelerate and release the throttle, the scooter itself brakes with a motor-wheel, giving part of the energy back to the battery. How much it slows down depends on the setting (via smartphone) Accelerator Mode, which has the values ​​Weak, Medium, Strong. I have Strong and I like this thing - I almost never use disc brakes, only when descending steep ramps or if I feel that I do not have time to brake with recuperation. To turn off the recuperation, you need to turn off the scooter, most often I do this at pedestrian crossings so that the device does not resist :) moving it across the road.

Advantages: Simple, convenient, maybe even the best for the money.

Disadvantages: Model with 5200mAh battery - Mijia M187

Comment: Important: Xiaomi has released an outwardly identical scooter, but with a less capacious battery, which is not successfully used by online stores that are not clean on hand. The model with a 7800 mA battery is Mijia M365, and with a 5200 mA battery is Mijia M187. In all cases, it is better to take a scooter with a 7800 mA battery - Mijia M365, it has more traction and is 2-3 thousand more expensive, but it covers 2 times more distance on a single battery charge (up to 23 km), and its younger version with a battery 5200 mA - Mijia M187 (up to 11 km) and less powerful and quickly dies, respectively. In a small hill does not tighten in any way and does not gain speed more than 15-20 km Tested by several people weighing from 60 to 90 kg! Do not break your high, take the one that is more powerful. These electric scooters are usually sold under the guise of powerful ones, as if at a discount, for a special offer, etc.))) don't be fooled! ... and if you, like me, were bred and sold a less powerful scooter with a 5200 mA battery, then feel free to ask for the money back or change it to a more powerful model with a capacious 7800 mA battery or threaten a court with full moral compensation)) During For 14 days, they are obliged to change or return money, if any information was hidden from you during the purchase: battery volume, mileage on one battery charge, maximum speed. It is very simple to justify the return of the scooter: it does not give out the declared characteristics for the mileage on one battery charge of 10-11 km instead of 30 km, as stated.

Advantages: - Cool, unusual. - Not too high price - Kit in the European version - Build quality, in general, not bad - Power reserve - Ninebot app

Disadvantages: - Curved screw holes on the steering wheel - The quality of the paint on the footboard - Heavy, but you get used to it quickly - Curved brake disc; Out of tune brakes

Comment: I bought this miracle a little less than a year ago, so I can confidently describe its pros and cons. Pros: 1) Cool, unusual. It would seem that already every fifth person is on a monowheel or an electric scooter, but those around me are still surprised and ask what it is, how many rides, etc. 2) Not too high a price. I bought it in early summer 2017 for 21450.3) The kit is in the European version. It is better to take it, because you will receive two spare tires. I struck the front one on my scooter on the third day, not noticing the drain in the dark and flying into it at speed. I had to wait almost a month for the cast. 4) Build quality is generally good. If you don't kill it, it will last for many years. There are shoals, but about that in the minuses. 5) Power reserve. I drive 25 km in normal mode guaranteed. Weight approx. 70 kg. 6) Ninebot application. Convenient, beautiful. I recently bought a phone holder for the steering wheel, now I use the phone as a speedometer or navigator. Cons: 1) Curved screw holes on the handlebars. I took the scooter out of the box, hooked on the steering wheel, but it does not lock - crooked screw holes. I had to drill. 2) The quality of the paint on the footrest. A year later I got off + - by 20%. And not in the place of contact with the asphalt, but on the front, which does not come into contact with anything at all. 3) A bit heavy, but you get used to it quickly. It is convenient to carry. 4) Curved brake disc; Out of tune brakes. So it is, the disc has not yet changed, but adjusted the pads for it so that it does not ring when driving. The rear brake has to be released from this, but the problem is compensated for by the electronic brake. I set it to medium and forgot. As a result, I can say that the scooter is definitely worth its money. I am rather a neat person, so the scooter does not require significant investments. I am satisfied with the purchase, I definitely recommend it.

Advantages: - You can forget about the bike - Compact, easily folds up and fits in the trunk - Causes a lot of pleasant emotions, this is one of those things that you want to go out on a warm evening and ride for an hour - You don't need to fasten and leave anywhere, as is the case with a bicycle, you can take to the store with you - Where you previously traveled in 20 minutes on foot, you can fly up on a scooter in 3-5 minutes

Disadvantages: - I rate the build quality at 4.5 out of 5. That is, the product out of the box needs to be finished off with a file. - Toothache hard when inflated according to the manual under 60 psi. Because of this, I ride by the side of the road, tk. on the ingenious tiled curbs, it starts to shake as if he was saddled with a washing machine at maximum speed - All spare parts (in Moscow) cost inadequate money. Sellers order the same folding mechanism, made on a lathe for three kopecks, and the price starts from 1500 rubles. The butterfly, which eliminates the backlash of the folding mechanism, printed on a 3D printer, is virtually free, starts at a price of 250 rubles. There is no point in talking about tires and cameras - a high-quality kit can cost under 5000 rubles! - No bag hook. It is very convenient to ride a scooter to the nearest store, but the package has to be hung on the handle, which introduces a certain imbalance in the control - When 20-30% of the battery remains, it accelerates and drives rather sluggishly. As soon as the charge drops below 10%, the scooter stops driving completely and starts crawling towards the outlet. Traveled over 1000 km. My height is 185, weight 90. - I was worn out with the rear brake. The brake disc is crooked, the mechanism does not work well, you need to constantly tighten the cable and shaman in every possible way. - On the 800 km run, the wing fell off. It just burst. New on Ali starts at 200 r. - The steering column loosened terribly to 700 km. And not the folding mechanism, but the pipe itself. Welded with argon, it helped for a week, then the pipe burst. As a result, they fixed it with bolts by drilling the column.- There were no problems with the wheels, I checked the pressure and pumped it up once a month or two. The tread is significantly worn out. - Folding tongue is slightly bent but still holds. In general, a scooter requires an investment of ~ 5000r. Change steering, wing. Install a reinforced tongue. In the future, replace the rubber. And you can drive another 1000 km + I use it several times a week, regardless of the weather. With my pressure washer.

Comment: The first thing to understand is that the European version of the scooter does not require significant modifications out of the box! Do not watch videos, do not read articles and do not listen to reviews, they are just trying to make money on you! - Native tires are capable of running more than 1000 km if you monitor the pressure (the tread will sooner wear off than the tire will fray)! - The steering rack starts to play, but quite a bit. This happens approximately once every 200 km, if you "hang on the steering wheel". The treatment is elementary - sculpt a piece of electrical tape and cut off the edges with nail scissors. If you do not hang on the steering wheel, you can forget about looseness and play in the steering rack. - No reinforced tongues, butterflies, bearings and other things that are trying to sell you for many thousands of rubles are not required in the first few thousand kilometers! They are simply trying to make money on you by selling cheap and unnecessary parts for astranomic money, claiming that the native components are made of plasticine and urgently require replacement. - Sealing the scooter is not required unless you plan on scuba diving! Carcher wash, rain and snow, he goes through without any problems! There is a membrane under the button on the steering wheel, water does not get there! The Chinese have thought of everything, there is no need to buy additional pads "from water" and other junk. What modifications should you make out of the box? - Place the mudguard under the front fender. Then the dirt will not fly under the battery compartment. The point is not in the battery, but in the protection itself, which is made by "honeycombs" and absorbs all the dirt. If you ride in bad weather and put the scooter indoors, you will find a puddle of mud underneath. - Make protection against abrasion of the wire on the rear fender. Conditional necessity, nothing happened to my wire for 500 km. But if you have a habit of accidentally leaning on the rear mudguard, remove it, cut out a small rectangle from a plastic bottle and attach it to the native screws, thus covering the wire. Check your tire pressure once every two weeks and ride for fun!

Advantages: I have already traveled 190 km, and decided to write a review because I see here his average score is 4, and this is nonsense, since for 24,000 it is simply definitely the best thing on the market now! I ride both a longboard and a bike, but only an electric scooter was able to replace a car in a number of cases, now I almost never use the car! From the house through the park 7 km to the MCC is a thrill! And even on the subway it is normal if not at rush hour. All in all, this is why it is the best choice: 1) Wheels! Yes, there is a risk of puncture, once when I was driving with a child on a very bad surface, the rear wheel was punctured, it is solved with a set for repairing cameras for 100 rubles. There is no point in changing to cast ones, all the buzz disappears. 2) Style! They don't write much about this, but in vain. This is important for me, I go to meetings in a suit. The rest of the scooters look somewhat frivolous. 3) Technique! Batteries from LG, Bluetooth, a powerful motor-wheel with a margin for tuning - you can put another controller and a battery, it will break 40 km / h and drive 40-50 km! This is done by the guys in Moscow. 4) Price! This is a super trump card. You simply cannot buy anything else of this class for 23900. In general, take it, do not hesitate, it is 100% worth it!

Disadvantages: IMPORTANT! When you press the handbrake, engine braking is activated due to the supply of counter current! Those.if you brake with the handle, the energy is spent and not recovered! There is recuperation when you just drive without pressing the brake and of course without pressing the gas! For example, you let go of everything from the hill and go. In the application, you can set accelerator mode - strong so that it recuperates more strongly, but also slows down more strongly, keep in mind! In general, all the disadvantages stem from the advantages.
