New Xiaomi Mi Band 8
On April 8, at 19:00 Chinese time, the long-awaited launch of the latest Xiaomi Mi Band 8 took place. Although Polish fans of this popular gadget still have to wait a little longer, we are eagerly awaiting the moment when the armband hits our home market.
The new Xiaomi Mi Band 8 provides a completely revised design compared to previous models. The manufacturer aimed to create a more versatile device that can be worn in a variety of ways, such as as a necklace or an accessory for sports shoes. Xiaomi is also giving us a wider choice of straps, offering different materials, patterns and colors so that the band can be even more personalized.
One interesting new feature is the ability to attach the armband to a shoe with a special accessory. This allows us to take advantage of Running Beam mode, which measures our running parameters in detail, such as step frequency, stride length and ground force. This is ideal for those who treat running more professionally.
Mi Band 8 also has built-in games, which is an interesting feature. We can have fun playing the popular puzzle game 2048 or enjoy various quizzes and simple Arkanoid-style games. It's a great way to relax and have fun in between activities.
The latest Xiaomi Mi Band 8 model introduces a revolution in the way the straps are attached. The traditional one-piece solution has been replaced by an innovative approach, where the straps are now connected from the top and bottom of the device.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.
The 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 just 27g, making it virtually imperceptible during daily activities.
The device features an impressive 1.62-inch AMOLED screen, offering a high resolution of 490x192 pixels. This allows users to enjoy a clear and crisp display of information and watch faces. Pixels with a pixel density of 326 PPI ensure sharp details and readability even under heavy use.
The Mi Band 8's screen brightness is an impressive 600 nits, making it readable even in bright sunlight. In addition, the screen uses touch technology, allowing intuitive navigation of various functions and settings. One of the interesting features of the Mi Band 8 is the ability to choose from a variety of watch faces, allowing you to customize the look of the band to suit your own style and preferences. You can choose from a variety of themes that allow you to personalize the appearance of the screen.
In terms of durability, the Xiaomi Mi Band 8 has a 5 ATM waterproof certification, which means you can wear it while swimming or showering without worrying about damage. In addition, the band is also dust-resistant, making it ideal for daily use and sports activities.
The 190 mAh battery provides long battery life on a single charge. Depending on how you use the device, the Mi Band 8 can last up to 16 days. Note, however, that using the "Always-On Display" function (constantly displaying the time and other information on the screen) can reduce the operating time to about 6 days.
Among the Mi Band 8's features are a heart rate monitor, SpO2 level measurement and more than 150 sports modes. The iDong is also an interesting feature. iDong is a feature available on the Xiaomi Mi Band 8 that offers additional training capabilities. It is a kind of boxing trainer enclosed in a small capsule that helps users improve the technique and performance of their punches and dodges. With iDong, users can receive tips on how to accurately deliver punches and perform dodges, which can be especially useful for those training in boxing or other martial arts. This functionality adds training value to the Xiaomi Mi Band 8 and allows users to develop their sports skills.
Xiaomi Mi Band 8 prices depend on the version of the wristband. The version without NFC functionality has been priced at 249 yuan, which is equivalent to about 150 zlotys. The NFC-enabled version, on the other hand, is slightly more expensive, costing 299 yuan, or about 180 PLN. However, it is worth remembering that Polish prices may differ from Chinese prices, and will include additional import and distribution costs.
