Chinese company Xiaomi recently came out with a series of rubber band watches that are stylish, sleek and ridiculously affordable. For roughly $13 you can purchase one of these technicolor wrist watches that are sure to last you a lifetime.
While most watches tend to cost you an arm and a leg, the Xiaomi Mi Band watches are incredibly affordable and well-made. Unlike most watches the Mi Band doesn't have a regular circular display. Instead this watch has a rectangular time face filled with health-monitoring sensors, a vibrating alarm, a light-up screen and 30 days-worth of battery power. You can even hook the Mi Band up to your smartphone. Each Mi Band watch comes with a colorful rubber band in a wide variety of neon hues.
