the screen is that bad? The battery gives for 20 days?
The screen is easy to be scratched. And if you do not do anything with the mi band, it will standby more than 30 days, but I aways test it, so maybe using time less than 10 days.

Maybe using a liquid protector will be fine. I bought a screen protector with the button. If i dont like it i’ll use liquid protectors.

I received my Mi band yesterday with 2 free screen protectors but the only thing they caused is annoyance. How to stick a piece of stiff plastic on a round surface. Impossible ! I ordered new ones on Aliexpress who are shaped in the form of the Mi band. They look like the ones in post #3 and i hope these have a better fit and are easy to apply

I ordered a screen protector which is cover button and edges but its smaller than it looks like so it doesnt covered all the screen. But protector is good. Its really feels nice.

So it's still unclear if the band's screen is glass or plastic but a lot of people are complaining that their Mi Band 3 already got some scratches so I decided to buy a plastic screen protector for my band.

I bought my screen protector on Aliexpress but you can buy the same one here: Soft Screen Protector for Xiaomi Mi Band 3 2PCS - $1.03 Free Shipping|GearBest.com

The screen protector is just a small piece of soft plastic.
A lot of people say it's "impossible" to apply a screen protector on the Mi Band 3 because the screen is curved but it's definitely possible.

So to apply it you just have to clean the screen of your Mi Band and put the screen protector on it. When I applied it, there was a gap with air on the side because the screen was curved and the screen protector is flat. But after a day, it was gone.

This is how my Mi Band 3 looks like with the screen protector


Pros:
1. It will protect the screen (duh...)
2. If you want to sell the Band (maybe when the Mi Band 4 come's out) it's still a lot worth because it has no scratches on the screen so you can sell it for a higher price.
3. It's pretty easy to apply and you almost don't notice the screen protector.

Cons:
1. There is a chance there are air gaps on the sides because of the curved screen but they will disappear after a day or two.

Conclusion:
I'm pretty happy with the screen protector and it works great! They are pretty cheap and easy to apply.
