Xiaomi has officially teased a new Mi Band 3 variant
which it dubbed Explorer Edition. The “Explorer” or “Exploration” was first
used on the Mi 8 edition which features a translucent back panel. Now, the
company has got a Mi Band 3 version bearing the same name. The Xiaomi Mi Band 3
Explorer Edition doesn’t have a translucent cover rather, it features a
translucent milk-colour rubber strap.
The new Xiaomi Mi Band 3 explorer version was teased
by the official Xiaomi Band Weibo handle and isn’t any different from the
models presently on sale, except for the strap. The translucent strap looks
quite eye-catching as a result of the contrast created between the black
fitness tracker and the strap. But there isn’t anything special about the
translucent strap anyway. Already, the Mi Band 3 is available in Black, Orange
and Blue straps.
Xiaomi didn’t reveal if this version will be going
on sale soon but there are indications that it will not be sold. Instead, it might be given away free to fans via a
lucky draw.
