Xiaomi announces Pro version of Mi Smart Band 7 that resembles a smartwatch – Tablets and phones – News

Xiaomi has announced a Pro version of its Mi Smart Band 7 for the Chinese market. The fitness tracker has a wider screen, making it more like a smartwatch than a more traditional fitness tracker.

The housing is 44.7×28.8mm, as it turns out on the product page† That is much wider than the 46.5×20.7mm of the Mi Smart Band 7† At 1.64 “, the screen has about the same diagonal as the non-Pro variant, but is much wider: 15:9 instead of 23:9 of the original version. It is an OLED screen with automatic brightness through a light sensor. There is also an always-on-screen function in the software.

Like the predecessor, the new tracker has a heart rate monitor with the ability to measure oxygen in the blood. There is also sleep tracking. The 235mAh battery should last about 12 days, while charging should take about an hour.

The Smart Band 7 Pro will be released in China for 399 yuan, which is approximately 57 euros. When released in Europe, Xiaomi products are usually more expensive than in the home country. For example, the regular version in China costs 250 yuan, about 35 euros; in the Benelux that is 60 euros.
