Marques Brownlee, aka MKBHD, recently accompanied the NBC production crew and Spurs staff for an in-depth look at the tools and people who transform an NBA playoff basketball game into the polished feed that millions watch from home.

Slim dimensions and a capable display give the new Xiaomi Watch S5 a strong foundation for daily use. At 46 millimeters across and just under 11 millimeters thick, the watch weighs only 46 grams without a strap.

Stainless steel forms the frame across color options that include black, silver, ceramic blue, and jungle green. A 5 ATM water resistance rating handles swimming and showers without issue.
