Xiaomi’s Mi Band, which has now been followed by the Mi Band 2, stormed the market with a compact size and cheap price tag, and is arguably regarded as the world’s most successful smart band product with its record performance in the market.

The second generation – Mi Band 2 was released early last month after a long wait occasioned by the company’s desire to ensure the device meets the market demand for the highly sought after smart band. The expected release date was even postponed severally to shore up the available stock.

Despite all these measures, the Mi Band 2 is still very difficult to get in the market. The high demand for the second generation smart band has caused its price to spiral upwards and is currently sold for as high as 229 Yuan.  Bear in mind that the Mi Band 2 launched at 149 Yuan in June 2016.

But now, all that is set to change as Huami has made plans to further increase production of the Mi Band. According to Mr. Huang Wang, CEO of Huami which is the company that produces the Mi Band, production of the Mi Band 2 will be doubled next month but it still won’t be enough to meet the high demand.

Lei Jun, the founder and CEO of Xiaomi, whose brand name the Mi Band carries, also admitted via his Weibo account that even though they had repeatedly increased production, the demand for the Mi Band 2 has not been fully met. Lei further corroborated Huang’s information that the Mi Band 2’s production will be doubled from next month in order to meet demand.

The Mi Band 2 packs a wide array of features which makes it a must have for many, considering the affordable price tag. It has an OLED-display and a touch panel, granting users access to more information about distance covered, time, heart rate, body temperature and many other useful data with just one touch of a finger.

Apart from that the device functions as both a fitness tracker and wristwatch with smart technology which responds to your movements. As soon as you raise your hand, the bracelet will display the current time.

Xiaomi recently revealed that it had sold over 6 million Xiaomi Mi Bands in the market. Now that the company has achieved a great milestone, it looks like a new Xiaomi band is one its way. The current Mi Band was released in July last year, so its about time we see a new wearable from the company. Earlier today, a new leak revealed the upcoming Xiaomi Mi Band 2 in picture.

According to the picture leaked, there will be some major differences in the new band. It will feature a touchscreen display which means most of the information could be directly shown on the screen. This could also mean less reliance on the connected smartphone.

Given that the first generation model was focused on fitness, this one too is expected to feature sleep tracking, calorie counter, alarm clock and a lot other fitness centric features. However, now that the Mi Band 2 is rumored to come with touch screen display, don’t expect to get anywhere near the 30 day battery life.

The addition of a touch screen display will most likely drive up the price of the new generation band. However, remember that Xiaomi is yet to confirm the existence of such a new band, so its better to take this news with a pinch of salt.

Stay tuned for more details.

Update: I’m very sorry, we are mislead by the Weibo. This is fake news. The picture is from Zeaplus, but the band looks really a good product, better than Xiaomi Mi Band, it’s only $14.99, here is the more details:  http://www.zeaplus.com/zeaplus-band-feature
