As reported two days ago, Xiaomi Malaysia announced that they are bringing the Mi Smart Band 5 into Malaysia and it's finally launching here. As speculated, the official price tag is RM169 and interested customers may purchase the wearable through their online store on Lazada and Shopee.

Compared with the predecessor, the Mi Smart Band 5 is a significant upgrade featuring a 1.1-inch AMOLED display which means it can show you more data, real-time stats and even lets you personalize the theme (there are over 65 themes). Of course, you can also find more exercise modes and there are new ones such as rowing, yoga, rope jumping, elliptical and more. A new stress level detection, breathing exercises, female health-tracking, PAI health matrix and others can also be found.

Moreover, the Mi Smart Band 5 has a better and accurate heart rate tracking thanks to the PPG sensor. But perhaps the biggest upgrade is that it now supports magnetic charger and can last up to 14 days of battery life (results may vary based on usage). Finally, it can be connected to both iOS and Android platforms.

If you prefer to purchase the Mi Smart Band 5 at a physical store, you will have to wait at a later date. However, the Mi Store at Sunway Pyramid is already selling the wearable for the same price but as a global version, so we think other Mi Stores around could be doing the same.
