When the scooter is on, a quick press of the power button toggles the lights on or off. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A double-press changes between the two speed modes, which is indicated by the lowest dot on the screen. Each speed mode has its own speed limit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>eco (11 mph \/ 18 kmh), the indicator light is green<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>standard (15.5 mph \/ 25 kmh), the indicator light is white<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unboxing and assembly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"963\" height=\"296\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-unboxing.jpg\" alt=\"unboxing of the Xiaomi M365\" class=\"wp-image-8416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-unboxing.jpg 963w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-unboxing-300x92.jpg 300w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-unboxing-768x236.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 963px) 100vw, 963px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Your scooter will likely arrive at your home in a fairly plain brown box, with lots of protective coverings around all of the components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The box will include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>scooter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>handlebars<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>charger<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>toolkit<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>screws<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>tire pump valve<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>user manual<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>quickstart guide<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>warranty card<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>spare tires (only with some retailers)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Minimal assembly is needed before riding, taking less than 5 minutes. Connect the handlebars to the stem, and ensure the cables are connected. Screw the four screws on the stem (two front, two back).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Confirm that the brakes work, tires are inflated, and the battery is charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recommend not throwing away the packaging at least until your return period expires, as you may need it in case you decide you want to return the scooter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">User manual<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 user manual is short and informative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While manuals may not be everyone&#8217;s favorite, I recommend reading or skimming through it for valuable insights specific to your version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Folding and unfolding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"551\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-folding-mechanism.jpg\" alt=\"folding mechanism of the Xiaomi M365\" class=\"wp-image-8407\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-folding-mechanism.jpg 620w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-folding-mechanism-300x267.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365&#8217;s folding mechanism is widely imitated but groundbreaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To fold, unlock two latches, twist the smaller one, and pull down the larger one. Secure the folded stem by connecting the handlebar frame with the rear fender hook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfolding is the reverse, ensuring a secure &#8220;click.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The handlebars don&#8217;t fold and are fixed at a suitable height for most riders between 3&#8217;9&#8221; \/ 120 cm and 6&#8217;6&#8221; \/ 200 cm.  The folding issues that were reported in 2019\/2020 have been significantly improved, and it now offers a well-balanced and secure mechanism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Next we will describe the performance aspects of the Xiaomi M365.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Motor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-motor.jpg\" alt=\"front wheel and motor of the Xiaomi M365\" class=\"wp-image-8410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-motor.jpg 800w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-motor-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-motor-768x639.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 has a brushless DC hub motor, with a real power of 250 Watts and a peak power of 500 Watts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite its modest rating, it delivers reliable and impressive performance, comparable to scooters with 350 Watt motors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The front-wheel placement enhances torque and overall power, surpassing expectations in speed, acceleration, and climbing, outperforming many other 250 Watt scooters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Speed and speed test<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 comes with an official top speed of 15.5 mph \/ 25 kmh, and I never had any issues reaching this speed, even when the battery wasn&#8217;t fully charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The scooter only struggled to reach that speed when the battery was nearly empty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One time I was curious if the Xiaomi M365 could reach a bigger max speed. So, I took it on an open road and the results were 17 mph \/ 27 kmh. It was quite the nice surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The acceleration of the Xiaomi M365 is one of its strong points and one of my favorite feats. While the scooter doesn&#8217;t come with a particularly powerful motor, it still accelerates quite fast and takes just under 6 seconds to reach full speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you aren&#8217;t satisfied with this speed and want more wind in your hair check out my guide on the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/fastest-electric-scooters\/\">fastest electric scooters<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Climbing and climb test<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I found the Xiaomi M365 to be a good climber, but not a great one. To be fair, pretty much no scooter in this price range is a great climber, and compared to its peers, the Xiaomi M365 actually climbs quite well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The official climb angle is 14\u00b0 \/ 25%, although my own experience and climb tests indicated that the scooter would likely conquer hills of up to 20\u00b0 \/ 36%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the scooter will climb the typical everyday hill most of us encounter on our daily rides, and while it will slow down significantly on steeper hills, it may still eat up many of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are one of those junkies who like climbing the steepest hills, check out my guide on the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/best-electric-scooters-for-climbing-hills\/\">best hill-climbing electric scooters<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"dataPointContainer\">\n\t<div class=\"dataPointNumberContainer\">\n\t\t<div class=\"dataPointNumber\">18.6 mi \/ 30 km<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"dataPointNumberDescription\">official range<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"dataPointTextContainer\">\n\t\t<h3 class=\"dataPointTextHeader\">Range and range test<\/h3>\n\t\t<p class=\"dataPointTextParagraph\">Officially, the range of the Xiaomi M365 is  18.6 mi \/ 30 km. Almost all of my range tests confirmed this range, with the average result of most them being around 17.5 mi \/ 28 km.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Xiaomi M365 after one year of usage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 isn&#8217;t just stylish, it seamlessly fits into my urban lifestyle. Its gentle acceleration, responsive handling, and comfortable ride make commuting a breeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 8.5-inch pneumatic tires navigate uneven terrain effortlessly. Maneuvering through traffic feels intuitive, and cruise control adds convenience on longer rides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bright LED lights ensure safety after dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For sure, I can say that my Xiaomi has provided a secure and joyful ride every time. The only problem I have had with the Xiaomi is with the range and battery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It will probably decrease by about 15%-20% from the day you first bought your scooter, and maybe even more if you don&#8217;t take proper care of the battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Xiaomi M365 vs other electric scooters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is how the evergreen Xiaomi M365 compares to other electric scooters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Xiaomi M365 vs Xiaomi M365 Pro<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"774\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi_m365_pro_leaning.jpg\" alt=\"Xiaomi M365 Pro electric scooter leaning on its kickstand in a living room\" class=\"wp-image-7501\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi_m365_pro_leaning.jpg 800w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi_m365_pro_leaning-300x290.jpg 300w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi_m365_pro_leaning-768x743.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the most common comparisons in the scooter world ever, and probably a question that every potential new scooter owner should ask themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While both scooters are excellent, the Pro version, being the upgrade, is a superior choice in many scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the Xiaomi M365 is more budget-friendly. The Pro justifies its higher price with enhanced performance, bug fixes, and refinements, making it a mid-priced scooter around $600.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re on a budget, the original Xiaomi M365, with a lower price, remains a competitive option. The Pro is also slightly heavier and takes longer to charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Personally, I myself went with the Xiaomi M365 Pro (you can read my full review <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/xiaomi-m365-pro\/\">here<\/a>), and I would probably recommend that choice to most new scooterists today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, as I said, if you are not planning on spending more than $450-$500 on a scooter, then you will probably want to stick with the original version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Xiaomi M365 vs Xiaomi Pro 2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"642\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-mi-pro-2.webp\" alt=\"xiaomi mi pro 2\" class=\"wp-image-21471\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-mi-pro-2.webp 1200w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-mi-pro-2-300x161.webp 300w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-mi-pro-2-768x411.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is pretty much the same as comparing the Xiaomi M365 and the Xiaomi M365 Pro, but by making the Pro even a bit better and slightly more expensive as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That further gap in the price difference is justified by mostly minor improvements, as the performance and the general features of the Pro and the Pro 2 are generally the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can see the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/xiaomi-mi-electric-scooter-pro-2-review\/\">complete review of the Xiaomi Pro 2<\/a> to find out more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Xiaomi M365 vs Ninebot ES2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"616\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/segway-ninebot-es2.webp\" alt=\"segway ninebot es2\" class=\"wp-image-21395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/segway-ninebot-es2.webp 1200w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/segway-ninebot-es2-300x154.webp 300w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/segway-ninebot-es2-768x394.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Some consider the Ninebot ES2 (full review <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/ninebot-es2\/\">here<\/a>) to be the biggest rival of the Xiaomi M365.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my opinion, the choice is clear, as the wheel differences between the two scooters make it evident.

With superior range, speed, and power, it&#8217;s a well-received scooter, albeit heavier at 42 lbs \/ 19 kg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In essence, the Ninebot Max is a more advanced, powerful, and premium option, ideal for those seeking a second scooter.

While the folded scooter has a slightly steeper front angle, affecting the center of gravity during carrying, it remains generally portable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It fits effortlessly in car trunks, including compact ones like a Ford Fiesta (which is what I used as a trunk test), and is suitable for public transport and office spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve tried pulling the folded scooter like a trolley by grabbing the handlebars and dragging it, and while it can be done, it&#8217;s not that convenient to do for longer distances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to carry it, I suggest simply pushing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weight limit and usage by heavy adults<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The official weight limit of the Xiaomi M365 is 220 lbs \/ 100 kg. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I was testing the scooter, I mostly weighed around 200 lbs \/ 90 kg. I can&#8217;t be entirely sure about this, but I do believe that I would have got a bit more range if I weighed less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I probably wouldn&#8217;t recommend this as the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/electric-scooters-for-heavy-adults\/\">best scooter for heavy adults<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Water resistance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 boasts an IP54 water protection rating, which is a gold standard in the industry, surpassing many scooters with no water protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to drive a scooter more frequently in the rain without any worrying check out my guide on the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/waterproof-electric-scooters\/\">best waterproof and water-resistant electric scooter<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lights and riding at night<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"437\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-headlight.jpg\" alt=\"main headlight of the Xiaomi M365\" class=\"wp-image-8408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-headlight.jpg 700w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-headlight-300x187.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 features an LED headlight on the handlebars, illuminating the road for about 16 feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For night riding, consider a brighter aftermarket headlight.

The bell on the left is not very loud, and while suitable for alerting pedestrians, it may struggle in noisy environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The display, with only 4 vertical dots, is basic, indicating speed mode and battery level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite its simplicity, the Xiaomi M365, designed in 2016, remains influential in the electric scooter industry, with detailed information accessible through the phone app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">App<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"385\" height=\"604\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/xiaomiM365Pro_mi_home_screenshot.png\" alt=\"Mi Home App\" class=\"wp-image-16\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/xiaomiM365Pro_mi_home_screenshot.png 385w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/xiaomiM365Pro_mi_home_screenshot-191x300.png 191w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 385px) 100vw, 385px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The official Xiaomi Home app is used to connect with the scooter through bluetooth, and it is available for both <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/mi-home-xiaomi-smarthome\/id957323480\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iOS<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.xiaomi.smarthome\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Android<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t let the seemingly subpar reviews on both platforms fool you &#8211; they are mostly from older reviews, plus bluetooth connectivity is a common issue in this type of app, and both apps are quite better than most other scooter apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The app comes with many useful features, and lets you read or control:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>current speed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>distance traveled<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>battery level<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>speed mode<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>lock the scooter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>toggle cruise control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>set the regenerative braking configuration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the official app, I recommend trying out the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/electric-scooter-universal-app\/\">EScooterNerds Universal Scooter Helper App<\/a>, available for both <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/electric-scooter-universal-app\/id1554357221\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iOS<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.escooternerds.electricscooterhelper\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Android<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The app isn&#8217;t meant to be a replacement for the original app, and it should work together with it, giving you additional features like checklists, guides, hacks, tools, resources, calculators, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accessories and customizations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only does the Xiaomi M365 have a ton of after-market accessories available specifically for it, but it will be able to host the majority of the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/electric-scooter-accessories\/\">generic scooter accessories and customizations<\/a>, as its build and design basically dictate the way the &#8220;default&#8221; scooter looks like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Helmet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 requires a helmet for safety, protecting against injuries and legal issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/best-electric-scooter-helmets\/\">electric scooter helmet guide<\/a> for a suitable, budget-friendly option with the necessary protection levels and certifications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Seat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider adding a seat to your Xiaomi M365 for added comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The scooter can accommodate one, and users commonly customize it this way. You&#8217;ll need to drill holes for the seat frame, a straightforward task. You can see the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/recommends\/vbestlife-shockproof-scooter-seat-for-xiaomi-m365\/\">VBestLife Shockproof Seat for Xiaomi on Amazon<\/a> for a great pick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trunk<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A trunk placed on the stem is another super-useful accessory that you can get for cheap. Most trunks will probably fit the Xiaomi M365, although the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/recommends\/epessa-scooter-storage-bag-amazon\/\">Epessa Bag on Amazon<\/a> is proven to be fully compatible and is very affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Downsides, issues, and tradeoffs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365, like any affordable scooter, has some issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary concern is its vulnerability to flats, a well-documented problem that, although improving, remains a significant issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fixing flats can be challenging, and potential buyers should be aware of this issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, I believe this is somewhat overblown, and a lot of flats are just a consequence of improper riding or plain ol&#8217; abuse. But still, you shouldn&#8217;t be surprised if you get one, two, and maybe even three flats a year with this scooter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re okay with occasional flats, other issues are likely less significant. Some are remnants from previous versions, possibly addressed in newer releases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The once prevalent folding mechanism instability, reported mainly in 2019-2020, has diminished over time. Xiaomi&#8217;s commitment to user feedback reduces the likelihood of encountering this problem in recent models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another common issue may be the shaking and vibration of the rear fender. Now, this issue is still somewhat present, and there is a small chance of some owners being affected. This is almost never a serious issue though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those are pretty much all the downsides of the Xiaomi M365. All in all, I believe that this is a very small number of faults for a scooter this cheap, and Xiaomi has done an excellent job overall on the build quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What remains are the obvious tradeoffs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 is not some monster scooter capable of breaking the sound barrier or taking you on journeys that are dozens and dozens of miles long. If you are after a more performant scooter (usually if you&#8217;re picking your second scooter), you will almost certainly want to see some other options better suited for your particular use case:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/long-range-electric-scooters\/\">longest range electric scooters<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/most-powerful-electric-scooters\/\">most powerful electric scooters<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/electric-scooters-for-heavy-adults\/\">best electric scooters for heavy adults<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/off-road-electric-scooters\/\">best off-road electric scooters<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, while the quality of the Xiaomi M365 is admirable for its price, this will still be a budget scooter, and if you&#8217;re after a more premium scooter, you&#8217;ll probably want to see some more <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/most-expensive-electric-scooters\/\">luxurious scooters<\/a>, or some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/electric-scooter-design\/\">best-designed scooters<\/a> of today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Verdict<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"376\" height=\"365\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-standing.jpg\" alt=\"Xiaomi M365 standing on a road\" class=\"wp-image-8423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-standing.jpg 376w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/xiaomi-m365-standing-300x291.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xiaomi M365 is a versatile choice suitable for various scooterist categories.
