Xiaomi’s Mi Band (Mi Smart Band) line of fitness trackers is very popular and a best seller thanks to its wide range of features and affordable price tags. The Mi Band 6, the latest version launched this year sold more than 1 million units in less than a month after it was available for purchase.
We do not expect Xiaomi to announce a successor this year but there is a high chance that the Chinese manufacturer may be working on more than one new Mi Band. Alongside a successor to the Mi Band 6, a new report has revealed that Xiaomi is planning a concept version dubbed the Mi Band X which will have a 360° wraparound display.
The news first appeared on Weibo via a user that goes by @我才是羽度非凡. The post revealed that Xiaomi is working on a Mi Band with a flexible display that goes around the entire circumference of the device thus needing no strap. Think of it as an advanced version of the Nubia Alpha and Nubia Watch. The source backs up the leak with a picture that seems to be from a Xiaomi event.
We do not know when Xiaomi will announce this product. We also do not know if it will be available for purchase or if it will just be Xiaomi showing us what it can pull off just like the Mi MIX Alpha. If it does make it available for purchase, we expect it to be way more expensive than any of the Mi Band fitness trackers it has announced. Nevertheless, we are excited and we are sure our readers are too.
