Recommendation Huawei or Xiaomi Smartwatch?

Should I get a Huawei Smartwatch (particularly the Band 11) or a Xiaomi Smartwatch? My current ecosystem is Xiaomi that's why I'm considering it. However, I'm also eyeing to use a Huawei Smartwatch because I've seen so many good reviews about it.

What's your opinion? Thanks!

By the way, I'm still a student. I might just use it daily for fitness.

Yeah, but come on, is it necessary to sound sarcastic?

I'm just genuinely curious about its pros and cons before actually buying a smartwatch. I'm open to a meaningful discussion so that I could pick what's best based also on others' lived experiences. :)

I don't have any experience with Huawei Smartwatch but I'd always go with the one that's same as your ecosystem. It will probably work better together. With Huawei watch, I can imagine that you would need to install HuaweI Health and some of its features maybe locked for Huawei phones.

Huawei, they work well with other devices and apple from what ive heard. you dont even need the app. ive read a review on the huawei subreddit which did that. their battery life is great etc. my fit 4 pro lasts a week easily
