It is becoming increasingly clear that the product renewal cycle at Xiaomi is faster than technological progress. This gives the impression that some new products are victims of this and therefore presents few novelties. This may be the case with the brand new Xiaomi Smart Band 7 unveiled in China on May 24, 2022.

Bigger screen and better sensors

In terms of novelties, there is above all a 1.62-inch AMOLED screen against 1.56 inches for the previous generation. The definition is also improved and goes up to 490 x 192 pixels. In contrary au Smart Band 6the new bracelet now offers an Always-On compatible screen.

Always a very low price

In China, the Xiaomi Smart Band 7 will be marketed at 239 yuan, or approximately 33 euros excluding tax. As in the case of the Smart Band 6, Xiaomi will also propose a version with NFC for contactless payment. As always with Xiaomi, it will take a few months to see the product officially land in France.
