News & Reviews:   Xiaomi Mi Band 1S

Xiaomi didn't just only showcased the 6.44-inch Mi Max and a brand new MIUI 8 OS, but also a new generation Mi Band, a 10k mAh battery and a Xiaomi iHealth box. There wasn't much information about the products, but here's what we know so far.

The Xiaomi Mi Band 1S is currently on sale at RM65 only at its launch, which is just slightly more expensive than the price of its predecessor the Xiaomi Mi Band was when it first launched. Weighing at only 5.5 grams and measuring 37mm x 13.6mm x 9.9mm; this little fella is light as a feather (metaphorically speaking). The battery power has increased from 41 mAh to 45 mAh and previously the Mi Band could last 30 days so the Mi Band 1S should be able to last longer. However, there are some new features that might sap away its longevity or remains the same (we shall see).
