The Mi Band 5 already launched in China.
The device is expected to get a global launch as the Mi Smart Band 5 on
Wednesday, July 15. Ahead of the event, unboxing photos have surfaced on the
web. The source of the photos is the Portuguese blog Techbit that has already
gotten their hands on a review unit. The Mi Smart Band 5 will come in a black
retail box with the image of the box and the number 5 on the front.
The back of the retail box is white and
has the features and spec sheet of the fitness tracker. Inside the box are the
smartband, a magnetic charger, and an instruction booklet. The Mi Smart Band 5
is said to only support English and Chinese out of the box but a future OTA
update will bring more languages. The new smart band comes with new features
such as customizable backgrounds, stress level monitor, breathing exercise,
customizable shortcuts, PAI Score, support for more sports modes, and support
for menstrual cycle tracking. Unfortunately, it still doesn’t have NFC.
There is no info on the price tag of the
Mi Smart Band 5 but it should be affordable.
