A few hours ago, Xiaomi unveiled the great launches that await us from the brand, among which is the Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 4. The new renewed version of the legendary Mi Band activity bracelet, which already caught our attention due to its value for money with the Mi Band 3 model. Does it still stand out among all the wearables available on the market? Is it worth waiting to get hold of the latest model?
Color screen and strap compatible with the Mi Band 3
The most striking thing is the color screen and the different customization options that differentiate it from other fitness bracelets. To date, they all had a black and white screen, but its new design makes it much more cost-effective than the Mi Band 3. It has 0 inch OLED screen, contributing almost a 40% more usable area on the panel. Also, seeing your data in color is always much more enjoyable.
On the other hand, we discovered a higher resolution and brightness, compared to the previous model. Of course, the design remains basically the same: a waterproof plastic strap with the elongated device in the middle. If you want to give it a different reason, you can get any other strap in five different colors, which curiously are Compatible with the Mi Band 3.
New functions and greater autonomy
Let's get to the interesting. The Xiaomi Smart Band 4 has several sport-specific modes, swimming being one of the most prominent. It is capable of holding up to a depth of 50 meters, although we could also enjoy this on the Mi Band 3. However, you can continue to record data from runs, bike rides, walks, etc.
As always, you will have a link to the mobile application to review all the records monitored 24 hours a day. It will even monitor your heart rate and alert you if you reach levels that are too high.
Of course, it still has a notification system if you spend a lot idle time, as well as the control of night rest. It should be noted that the new bracelet shows the different phases of your rest so that you can control sleep habits and not alter the circadian rhythm.
Regarding the battery, this model presents a autonomy of up to 20 days, a little more than in the previous version. Although it remains to be seen if it will be consumed before using some type of function.

Xiaomi has launched three different models for sale in China: the standard, with NFC function and a special edition of The Avengers. In Spain, the Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 4 bracelet will go on sale on June 26 for 34 euros. We will have to settle for the standard version without NFC.
