Step Up & Stay Fit - Xiaomi Unveils Mi Band 2 For Fitness Aware Indians

Coming to the sensitivity and accuracy, Xiaomi has tweaked up the pedometer algorithm for filtering out unnecessary movements and errors to produce accurate results. The built-in heart rate sensor helps to estimate the duration and intensity of workout based on the readings. The idle alert feature with gentle buzz motivates you to keep on moving.

The Mi Fit app (available for both android and ios devices) helps you to pair the band for monitoring your daily workouts in real time. The statistical analysis of your activity via the app helps to improve your performance over time. Moreover, the sleep tracker measures the length, quality, and pattern of your sleep cycles and notifies you about the same.

However, the band can also act as a standalone device to gather the data and later sync with the app. For pairing with your phone, the band is equipped with 2nd generation low-energy Bluetooth 4.0 technology to provide fast, stable, connections while consuming less power. This also ensures a long battery life and stable data transmissions.

In addition to the fitness features, the band acts as a key to unlock your android smartphone. It also incorporates call and message alert feature when paired with your smartphone.

Astounding 20-day battery life – with the power efficient sensors, display, and connectivity, you need to worry less about the battery life and more about your fitness.
