Hey, what's up its week, four Xiaomi phi, and today we're looking at the all new me smart band.4 I've actually got the global version here, not too Chinese version as you've. Seen in all the reviews, it actually seems like the biggest upgrade since the van to. But how good is it really? Let's find out, let's go in the box, you'll find a smart band, some instructions and a charger would USB cable to charge. The bandwidth. First, you'll notice, the design of the band 4 has slightly changed. The meat band 3 seems to have a much rounder looking glass face and a display is by far the biggest visible upgrade.
Not only does it now have a full color AMOLED display that has an increase in size of about 0.2 inches. The resolution also went up from 128 by 80 on the band 3 to 240. By hundred and twenty on the band 4. Also, the battery has a slight increase from 110 235 million power with battery life on both the meat band 3 and am even for being around 20 days. Bluetooth has been upgraded to Bluetooth, 5.0 and the size and weight seems to be pretty much the same. The charger has a slight change and the charging pins have been relocated as well, and this charger still uses a USB connector.
The been for has 6 access, sensors for sports and fitness tracking, and it's supposed to be much more accurate when tracking your activities, including swimming the strap, doesn't seem to have changed, and it looks and feels pretty much the same as under my band 3. The functionality has improved slightly, but in broad terms it's still pretty much the same. It's got a step counter and the heart rate monitor for fitness purposes. It will give you all kinds of notifications from your phone. You can see your calendar control the music player on your phone, see incoming messages, see incoming caller Ids, set an alarm clock pretty much all the stuff you'd expect.
It's also got a sleep tracker, but that means you would have to wear it when sleeping which I personally, don't find to be that comfortable. So, let's look at how to set it up, how it is in use and let's test how water-resistant it is you'll need to set it up using the fit app in which you could log. In with your shell me account in Demi Fit app, you can add a new device, and it will pair tab and over Bluetooth once the band is set up in the fit app. You can monitor the fitness tracker. The heart rate sensor change, watch, faces and control everything that you want the band to do here.
We going to select a bunch of watch faces which you can synchronize with the watch, there's quite some cool looking once and a bunch of well less cool. Looking once it's mentioned on the Xiaomi website that they gradually will be adding more watch face designs over time, which makes me hope they will add some cool, looking ones in the near future. So I took it with me for a day, and it did seem to track my steps quite well, and also I wanted to try out it water resistance, and you know me I'm, not gonna, just throw it in a glass of water. That would be too easy. I want to try this out for real and I, took it with me for a swim.
It held up very well no problems at all, and it actually tracked the swimming very good as well. I swam for about 500 meters, normally I do like 5 kilometers, but I just wanted to see if this works, and it seemed to work pretty well. So now what do I think of the band for well? First, I really like that it's got a full color display it's a lot brighter, which makes it a lot easier to read, and it really makes the band 3 look very dim. It's also got a higher pixel count, which makes text and graphics look a lot better. So these are some great improvements without compromising battery life.
I, don't really like that! You can see the actual display much better on this model when you hold it in to light in certain angles. You can really see the size of the display and I personally would have loved to see a full display as big as the watch itself. I did notice that it's less visible on to me, band 3, for example, maybe because of that thicker and round glass I also would have loved to see it compatible with the old Chargers, but they've changed that from the band, 2 to the band, 3 and now from 3 to 4. They change it again. Also, the charger of the band 3 has a wider and better feeling cable, which makes this one feel quite a bit more fragile.
It does offer a lot more functionality and a fitness tracker really seems to have improved I, also kind of would have loved to see NFC beat a standard on all the me bands. I do think that the new me band has a lot of improvements that make it look and feel more like an actual Smartwatch than just a fitness tracker, especially with the higher resolution. Color display, and personally I find the brightness to be one of the biggest improvements. So overall I do think it's got some great improvements which make for a date and night difference with the Ben 3. The global version of the band 4 just got released in Europe for around 40 euros, but its price might be a little different, depending on which country that you want to buy it.
So that's about it for the band 4. What do you guys think? Is it a great improvement over to me band 3, or are there any things that you would have loved to see improved on this one as well?
