Yes, Mi Band have IP67 secure that should protect from dust and water. You can use it while taking shower/bath, but I strongly recommend not to use it in water. Some users had water inside capsule after taking shower and batch. So just take off Mi Band while you take shower, keep your body clean!

At this moment, there are different color rubber straps on sale, similar to one you have by default. There are 2 types of straps selling, official and fake, so take care choosing it.

Nope.
8. Can it work at cold winter times?
