A few hours ago the bracelet has appeared by different certification agencies revealing some of its characteristics. In this way we can already get an idea of what is going to change the brand regarding the Xiaomi Mi Band 3.

Before you know the changes, it is opportune to know what is offered to the user the Xiaomi Mi Band 3. It is a bracelet with black and white OLED panel capable of withstanding a depth of 50 meters and with a curved design that is embedded in a silicone bracelet. All with Bluetooth 4.1, and a 110 mAh battery.

Confirmed changes in the Xiaomi Mi Band 4

NFC

Today, two different versions of the Xiaomi Mi Band 4 have been filtered on the network. One of them is the NFC variant, under the model number "XMSH08HM", while the second is the bracelet without Concectividad NFC, with model number "XMSH07HM". Remember that the Xiaomi Mi Band 3 NFC Edition never came to Spain but this year may if we have model with this connectivity.

Bluetooth 5.0

The great novelty, for the moment, is that both wristbands will connect via Bluetooth 5.0, a great improvement over the Xiaomi Mi Band 3, which is connected via Bluetooth 4.2. Thanks to Bluetooth 5.0 we will have a stronger connection and a greater reach compared to previous generations.

Load without removing the module

The Xiaomi Mi Band 3 requires removing the module from the belt to be able to charge it by connecting it to the electric current. The Xiaomi Mi Band 4 will present a more modern charging system as it would have magnetic load support on the back of the device. This would allow to avoid the dispensing of the silicone band to load the wearable.

Expected changes in the Xiaomi Mi Band 4

Bracelet redesign

One of the great reviews poured on the Xiaomi Mi Band 4, which are not many, is that the terminal looks a rough and outdated design. There are many fans who demand the brand a change in the lines and shapes of the bracelet towards something more like the Honor Band 4, with its flat screen that is better fit with the lines of the wrist.

Color screen

The great but that we put to the Xiaomi Mi Band 3 is that it does not include, among its characteristics, a color screen. This could be the big change between the Xiaomi Mi Band 4 and the Xiaomi Mi Band 3 because most of the smart bracelets that we can find today in the market look like a color screen that extends, and much, the possibilities of wearing the bracelet.
