Xiaomi Mi Band 4

Xiaomi is the undisputed leader in the arena of fitness trackers. The ambitious Chinese brand's fitness trackers sell in the millions, and their functionality grows exponentially from generation to generation.

Key innovation

The "folk" fitness tracker Mi Band in the fourth generation appeared to the general public at the dawn of the summer season of 2019. The key innovation that found implementation on board the bracelet was the equipment with a 0.95-inch diagonal AMOLED colour display. It is topped with 2.5D tempered glass with an oleophobic coating. Users are provided with 4 regular dials for judgment, as well as a huge number of main screens for every taste and colour are available in the Mi Fit application.

As usual, the display of a fitness tracker displays the time, notifications from applications and instant messengers, information about the activity of the “carrier”, a detailed weather forecast, etc. From now on, you can tap on it to control the smartphone's music player and smart home devices of the Xiaomi ecosystem. Bluetooth 5.0 is used to connect with mobile phones.

Improved Algorithms

As part of the fitness component, Xiaomi Mi Band 4 has got improved algorithms for tracking activities, including when doing water sports(the bracelet recognizes various styles of swimming: freestyle, butterfly, etc.). A separate honor to be mentioned is given to the support of the voice assistant Xiao AI (does not support the Russian language). By the way, despite the colour screen, the tracker still “lives” without recharging for an honest 20 days. The reason for this is the increased capacity of the rechargeable battery (135 mAh). In pursuit of the standard version of the bracelet, the older Mi Band 4 model with an NFC module is presented on store shelves, but it is not “friendly” with Google Pay and in our latitudes there is essentially no sense in it.
