Mother's Day is fast approaching (Sunday 10^th May), and if you haven't shopped for a gift yet, don't stress — there are plenty of great gifts that you can get for your mum from the Mi Store. We've put together a list of some thoughtful gift ideas that we think she will love this Mother's Day.

Please note that due to the increased volume of deliveries NZ Post is experiencing, there might be a slight delay in the arrival of shipments. We recommend ordering as soon as possible to receive your gifts by Mother's Day. Otherwise, tell mum you love her and these gifts will be as good as ever once they arrive!

Take care of mum's health with the Mi Fitness Smart Band 4 — one of the best-value fitness trackers on the market. The Mi Band 4 features upgraded and improved step count algorithm, a heart rate monitor, sleep monitor, and health and fitness tracking.

Not only can the Mi Band 4 track health and fitness, but it also makes mum's life easier by displaying incoming calls, and notifications from WeChat, WhatsApp, and Facebook simply by raising the wrist. When connected to the Mi Home app, she'll be able to set daily goals, check on her progress, view health data, and so much more!

Because of it's minimal and simple design, the Mi Band 4 will fit with any look or outfit, and if mum wants to change up the colour down the line, we've even got standalone bands that can be purchased at an affordable price!

Mums are the busiest people in the world and anything you can give to make her life easier, and/or give her a little more time to herself and to relax is a winner! In fact, it seems to be a winner for everyone all around and it's the reason our Robot Vacuums are so popular. 

The Roborock Vacuum Cleaner E35 Smart Robot is one of our many smart home products that just make life so much easier! With one of these, you can vacuum the entire house with the push of a button, while you sit back and enjoy a nice book, or Netflix, or whatever you choose to do with this extra time. In fact, you don't even have to push a button if you schedule the vacuum through the Mi Home app. That means you can even get the vacuuming done while you're asleep or when you're not even at home! When the room is completely cleaned up, the robot will automatically return itself back to the dock and begin charging, ready for the next vacuum. So what else can be expected of this vacuum?

• Efficient and intelligent cleaning for one. This E35 uses a dual-gyro system together with motion tracking sensors to carry out logical and efficient cleaning in every room. 
• You'll get a thorough clean with 2000Pa of intense suction that easily pulls dirt off of hard-wood floors, and drags it from deep inside carpet fibers.
• The E35 vacuum and mops simultaneously for sparky clean floors (except for when on carpet of course). The mop sucks in water evenly as it cleans, so it cleans without leaving behind puddles.
• And more! Click here to read more about what you can expect. The most thing to remember is, expect clean floors with very little effort required!
