The Xiaomi Mi Band is a very popular fitness tracker thanks to its bargain pricing and impressive build quality –but be that as it may, its size is something of a deterrent to some who look for proper-sized watches; in comes the brand’s newest Xiaomi Mi Watch – a smartwatch-slash-fitness tracker that, as per Xiaomi tradition, is also very affordable.
Priced from a low 99 Euro (RM481), the watch comes with a full-colour 1.39-inch AMOLED display panel that allows more to show compared to the narrow Mi Band. There are side buttons that act as controls and navigation. The watch only weighs 32g and has 5 ATM water resistance rating.
When it comes to health and fitness tracking, the watch comes 117 exercise modes, GPS tracking, plus monitoring features for heart rates, sleep pattern, blood oxygen level and air pressure.
According to Xiaomi, the watch’s 420mAh battery can last up to 16 days, but of course, this could differ depending on real world usage. There are several band colours including black, beige, navy blue, yellow, orange, and olive. There’s no word on when the phone will arrive in Malaysia yet, but we could possibly hear more about it during the Mi 10T’s local launch this October 6.
