The new Xiaomi Mi Band rumoured to be launching on November 11th in celebration of China’s Singles’ Day has been sighted on mi.com with a confirmed release date of November 11.
As speculated from the recent leaks of photos and specifications of the new Xiaomi Mi Band. The mi.com listing confirms that it will include a heart rate sensor, which will be able to provide real time monitoring of the wearer’s heart rate.
