On April 8th at 7:00 PM Chinese time, the long-awaited launch of the latest Xiaomi Mi Band 8 model took place. Although Polish fans of this popular gadget have to wait a little longer, we eagerly anticipate the moment when the band will hit our domestic market.
The new Xiaomi Mi Band 8 offers a completely revamped look compared to previous models. The manufacturer aimed to create a more versatile device that can be worn in various ways, such as a necklace or an accessory for sports shoes. Xiaomi also gives us a greater choice of straps, offering different materials, patterns, and colors to make the band even more personalized.
One of the interesting new features is the ability to attach the band to a shoe using a special accessory. This allows us to use the Running Beam mode, which measures our running parameters in detail, such as step frequency, step length, or ground impact force. This is an ideal solution for those who take running more professionally.
Mi Band 8 also has built-in games, which is an interesting feature. We can enjoy the popular logic game 2048 or enjoy various quizzes and simple games in the style of Arkanoid. It’s a great way to relax and have fun during breaks between activities.
The latest Xiaomi Mi Band 8 model introduces a revolution in strap attachment. The traditional one-piece solution has been replaced with an innovative approach, where the straps are now attached from the top and bottom of the device. This innovation opens the door to creating a unique look that combines elements of designer elegance and fashionable style. 
Xiaomi Mi Band 8 has compact dimensions of 48×22.5×10.99 mm, making it comfortable to wear on the wrist. It is also extremely lightweight, weighing only 27g, making it practically unnoticeable during daily activities.
The device is equipped with an impressive 1.62-inch AMOLED screen, offering a high resolution of 490×192 pixels. This allows users to enjoy clear and sharp display of information and watch faces. Pixels with a density of 326 PPI ensure sharp details and readability even with intensive use.
The brightness of the Mi Band 8 screen is an impressive 600 nits, making it readable even in bright sunlight. Additionally, the screen uses touch technology, allowing intuitive navigation through various functions and settings. One of the interesting features of the Mi Band 8 is the ability to choose from different watch faces, allowing you to customize the look of the band to your own style and preferences. You can choose from a variety of themes that allow you to personalize the screen’s appearance.
In terms of durability, Xiaomi Mi Band 8 has a 5 ATM water resistance certification, meaning it can be worn while swimming or showering without fear of damage. Additionally, the band is also dust-resistant, making it ideal for everyday use and sports activities.
The 190 mAh battery provides long-lasting performance on a single charge. Depending on how the device is used, the Mi Band 8 can operate for up to 16 days. However, it should be noted that using the “Always-On Display” feature (constant display of time and other information on the screen) may reduce the operating time to about 6 days.
Among the features of the Mi Band 8 are a heart rate monitor, SpO2 level measurement, and over 150 sports modes. An interesting feature is also iDong. iDong is a feature available in Xiaomi Mi Band 8 that offers additional training possibilities. It is a kind of boxing trainer enclosed in a small capsule, helping users improve the technique and efficiency of their punches and dodges. Thanks to iDong, the user can receive tips on precise punching and dodging, which can be particularly useful for those training in boxing or other martial arts. This functionality adds training value to the Xiaomi Mi Band 8 band and allows users to develop their sports skills.
The prices of Xiaomi Mi Band 8 depend on the version of the band. The version without the NFC feature is priced at 249 yuan, which corresponds to about 150 zlotys. Meanwhile, the version with the NFC feature is slightly more expensive and costs 299 yuan, or about 180 zlotys. However, it is worth remembering that Polish prices may differ from Chinese ones and will also include additional import and distribution costs.
