How many devices have we seen born on the market that, after a short time, have received a Pro variant? Whether we are talking about phones, wearables or even headphones, many of these terminals have a more powerful version than the original… except for the Mi Band .
Apparently, this is going to change with the arrival of the new bracelet on the global market, as a new finding suggests that Xiaomi could be working on something similar with its line of fitness accessories. After the announcement last week of the Mi Band 7, new evidence points to a possible launch, closer than far, of a Mi Band 7 Pro.
References to this new device were found in the brand’s Mi Door Lock app, with the illustration of a fitness band identical to that of the Mi Band 7 and accompanied by an NFC version (another of the devices that has not yet seen the light).
what is known
As for the differences between the two variants, there is no solid evidence yet. The possible changes that we could find in the Mi Band 7 Pro could revolve around a larger screen, a larger battery or maybe even some additional sensors, such as the GPS that we have already seen in other devices of the firm and that could reach this bracelet.
This new accessory from the Chinese firm could arrive in July, along with the Xiaomi 12 Ultra, which means that there is still time for the manufacturer to listen to our wishes to add some other interesting feature to the bracelet.
What we want
Here we give free rein to our desires, we must bear in mind that many of these characteristics would imply an increase in the price of the accessory, which could be closer to 100 than 50 euros. Still, for asking not to stay.
- Speaker and microphone: All of us who have tried a smartwatch with these features know how comfortable it is, not only to receive or make calls, but also to listen to our music anywhere without having to depend on the smartphone or headphones.
- Examples of exercises: Some of the smartwatches that are on the market, not very modern, allow us to visualize on the screen how the exercises that we have to do to achieve a better physical condition are carried out. If it is true that the screen of the Mi Band 7 Pro grows in size, it would be a good time to integrate functionality of this type.
- NFC : Yes, we already know that there is a version proposed with this connectivity as its main virtue. But, if the NFC tool is added to the Mi Band 7 Po, it would be a way to put order in the brand’s catalog and avoid launching several versions of the same product. At the user level, being able to pay with the bracelet would be a dream come true, as has been the case in China for a long time.
The question now is, if Xiaomi integrates some of these functions in its next bracelet… What is going to differentiate the Mi Band from the rest of the smartwatch that the brand sells for less than 100 euros in our country?
