At the end of March, Xiaomi presented the next generation of her successful fitness bracelet Mi Band 6. He recently received an update that allows him to reply to messages directly from the bracelet. The update is currently only available in China.
Expected improvement
The fact that Xiaomi Mi Band 6 is a successful product is also evidenced by the fact that in less than 10 days from the launch of sales on the global market, it managed to sell it more than a million pieces. Mi Band fitness bracelets have always been popular, thanks to their low price and wide range of functions.
Xiaomi Mi Band 6 is currently receiving a much-anticipated update that brings a feature that many Mi Band owners have been dreaming of for several years. The update allows you to respond to alerts right from your bracelet, without having to pull out your smartphone.
The function is available in firmware version V1.0.1.32 and currently this function is limited to use only in the SMS application. Other applications such as Messenger, WhatsApp or Telegram do not offer this feature.
It is also questionable whether this improvement will reach the global version of the bracelet, as this update is for the Chinese version only. If so, we will definitely let you know.
There are other shortcomings
Currently, the global version of the bracelet also lacks a supported Czech or Slovak language. We know from previous experience that this should happen during this year. In the meantime, we will have to make do with English.
The global version of the bracelet also lacks an NFC chip, so in Europe we cannot enjoy payment directly from the hand. But these are the things we have already criticized in Xiaomi Mi Band 5.
If you're interested in the bracelet, don't forget you can buy it in this reference. We are already testing it in the editorial office and you can look forward to our detailed review soon.
