Sport bands from Xiaomi have been very popular for a long time. It can be confidently said that this is quality equipment, while also being very affordable.
What do we know about the latest Xiaomi Mi Band 7?
The band debuted on May 24 and several significant changes have been introduced, which are worth mentioning. Namely, the most noticeable is definitely the larger screen with a size of 1.62 inches and a resolution of 192 x 490 pixels. In the Mi Band 6, the screen size is 1.56 inches with a resolution of 152 x 486 pixels. The latest band features a higher brightness level (500 nits vs 450) so the maximum brightness on sunny days will work perfectly. However, in both cases, there is a lack of automatic brightness adjustment. The band is equipped with a 2 times larger battery. Its capacity is 180 mAh vs 125 mAh in the Xiaomi Mi Band 6.
In both cases, however, there is a lack of a GPS module, so it is not possible to record the course of our route. The latest model does have an Always-On Display mode, which means that notifications and the date are available all the time. The available animated watch faces look great, pleasing the eye with an interesting graphic design. The new Mi Band has received as many as 120 different activities, which is a significant difference compared to 30 activities in the previous model. A new feature is also the SpO2 sensor, which will check the oxygen content in the blood and alert when saturation drops below, for example, 90%. Thanks to the enlarged screen, there are more charts, they are much more vivid, and messages have more content. The Xiaomi Mi Band 7 is also slightly faster. Measuring heart rate or blood oxygenation is quicker, so the speed of results will appear faster.
And what about the price of the Xiaomi Mi Band 7?
In China, the band is priced at 249 yuan (which costs about 160 PLN here). The NFC version is more expensive, rising to 299 yuan (costing about 200 PLN). We can only speculate how much the latest band will actually cost in Poland, but we can be sure that the price will be quite affordable given the capabilities it has. So if we need a clear screen and the latest features, it is worth considering purchasing the newer variant. It is also worth mentioning that the Mi Band 6 straps are compatible with the latest model, despite the larger screen.
