It looks like there was a purpose behind Xiaomi lowering the price of their Mi Band to 69 Yuan as a reliable source has revealed that the company plans to release a new bracelet soon called the Mi Band 1S.
According to the source, the Mi Band 1S will feature a similar design to the original Mi Band but will be slightly bigger due to it housing a larger sensor which features a new optical heart rate sensor. The new heart rate monitor is the new bracelet’s biggest feature. According to rumors, the new sensor is able to detect the user’s heart rate while awake and while asleep.
The rest of its feature will be similar to the original Mi Band which include a step counter or pedometer, a calorie counter, a sleep monitor, alarm, phone unlocker, call alert, and more. With the new heart rate monitor, the battery life of the Mi Band 1S is expected to be less than the original Mi Band but should still be around two weeks long.
As for pricing, the Mi Band 1S will take the previous price spot of the original Mi Band at 99 Yuan, keeping Xiaomi’s fitness bracelet pricing below 100 Yuan and making the Band 1S the cheapest fitness bracelet with a heart rate monitor. Xiaomi plans to release the Mi Band 1S later this week on November 7 but the new product should start showing up on the Xiaomi official website, Lynx, Jingdong, and other online stores on November 11.

Meizu official says that on December 6 there is new accessory product for the conference in Beijing along with Meizu Note5.
We can see the details in the photo that is a bracelet. As for the price, it is about 499RMB, it's 72.3usd.
I'm doubted what characteristics does that bracelet exceed the price of xiaomi miband2? Not cheap, it is something expensive. Do you consider it?

We can see the meizu smart band in the photo(i can't post here now),something normal not especial,with function alike others xiaomi band ,
but with long time use once charged.Some said it looks nice.About the price,is 229RMB,not 499 yunes .
I'll wait for more details.As a user de miband ,i really expect something new.
Could someone suggest a good Fitness band for K20 Pro (which has SP02 and improper heart rate alert which means continuous heart rate monitor). Does MI band 4 or Honor band 5 works with this?
I have honor band 5 and ir works fine
I'm using the GT watch work fine for me. I use it more as a smart watch instead of a fitness tracker but I compared it with my fitbit before and the GT watch was more accurate on step count.

I guess I'm not the only one around with an old good Mate 20x waiting patiently for this year's new phones revelation firmly determined to upgrade.
And I did some research. I don't want to replace the phone for something worse. I'm not into such a big screen anymore, I prefer something lighter and more ready for one hand manipulation.
There is not much available or coming to the higher class. According to reviews, Galaxy S20 has problems with the main camera, besides Exynos for non-US markets lags significantly behind Qualcomm and it is overpriced. Note is not substantially different. Oppo seems to finish this year's production, its Find X2 pro is currently the best choice but it still has software problems. There is an interesting new kid in the block - Vivo X50 pro plus, but Vivo is so slow regarding system upgrades that is wise to forget it. Otherwise there is another mighty product in the market - Xiaomi Mi 10 pro, its's really ugly according to today's standards and the global software is buggy.
Sure, there are bunch of Huawei phones from Mate 30 pro 5g to P40 pro+, they are still actual and reliable. And a new pair Mate 40 and 40 pro are coming. It's now confirmed and some of their characteristics are known already:
1. Both phones are coming wth curved screens, Mate 40 pro with a waterfall 1080p OLED 90Hz display in dimensions between 6.7 to 6.8 inches, which is just right for my new orientation. The displays of the Chinese manufacturer BOE have been chosen by Huawei for its next high-end smartphone, namely the Mate 40 . The most powerful version of the terminal, the Mate 40 Pro , will have three companies as official suppliers: Samsung Display, LG Display and the aforementioned BOE.
2. They might have 24 and 32MP selfie snappers and Mate 40 phone might have triple settings in the back camera with main 50MP RYBY, 16MP ultra-wide, 3x optical zoom lens respectively, while the Mate 40 Pro version comes with 4 sensors main and wide 50MP RYBY, 5X periscope and a ToF sensor.
3. The battery of phones will have the capacity of 4500-5000 mAh with the support of 66W fast charging technology, and 40W wireless charging.
4. As we already expected both phones come with EMUI 11 on the base of Android 11 (without GMS) and are rumoured to round late September/ Chinese language Nationwide day which falls on October 1, 2020.
5. There are more improvements already speculated as outstanding performance, 5G capabilities, system optimization, ID design, unique features like remote thermometer.

All these are good news but there are bad too. Both models supposed to be equipped with the new 5 millimeter SoC dubbed as Kirin 1000/1020. But we know that the producer of this chip TSMC stopped receiving orders on May 15 and all due Kirins must be taken over till September 15 according to the US trade ban. There are rumors that Huawei didn't assure enough chips and that deliverable quantity could only cover 80% of expected Mate production. Not to mention that Huawei might want to save some of these chips for next year's P50 models. Hence the Kirin supposed to be intended only for Chinese market, global Mate 40 phones might come with Mediatek Dimensity 1000+ SoC (Samsung's dual chips policy). What looks like a bad joke: Dimensity 1000+ is not a 5mm chip, it's not equivalent Kirin 1000/1020, it's even well below Snapdragon 865. Make no mistake: in 2021 5g becomes something that makes a difference between phones.
And there is more. The most important improvements of Android 11 seems to be 5g and electronic id documents support (together with car keys replacement). The end of China - US trade war is nowhere in horizon. On the contrary - the CCP aggressive attitude toward China neighbours is bound to bring even greater restrictions. Huawei is working hard to attract developers to its app store but more and more Chinese apps are blacklisted every day. There is not only GMS outage to consider (it could even be bypassed), the growing limitations of use Huawei products puts the new Huawei phones on the risky side.
The bummer is that Huawei is so highly above the rest in R&D investments that there is hardly any decent competition. We'll see what might bring Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro+ and Nokia 9.3 if they are real.
For me there is no upgrade path from 20X.
Maybe ROG Phone 3 if the cameras are great but other than that idk

This is how I feel as well. If Huawei would of simply allowed launcher changes on my phone (china phone) and bootloader unlock so I could eventually move to lineageos it would be perfect. It's one of the only phones that didn't slow after a short time. I feel like once the security updates run out I'm hosed due to not being able to update it to another room.
Early reports of the new Fitbit bands planned is that they're going to stick to Fitbit OS and with that most probably FitbitPAY. Why has no one made a fitness band with Wear OS or at least a band with NFC that supports GooglePay?
I do not want to replace my analogue watch with a smart-watch, but I would like to track my steps/HR/sleep/etc. and use GooglePay so I'd be happy wearing the band on my right hand with my analogue watch in my left hand. What's the solution, other than wait longer?
The Fitbit Charge 5 uses FitbitPay
The Garmin Vivosmart 5 uses GarminPay
The Xiaomi Miband 6 is only compatible with MasterCard(?)
Is there a fitness band which is compatible with GooglePay?
Hey, i have been using OnePlus 6 from the time it was released. Country : India. Need an upgrade from this phone. Budget : till 50k INR +- 10k. I want a phone which has good battery life and hardware. I play some mobile games like Arknights, efootball 22, genshin etc. Also I travel a lot, so something which has nice width of network bands for local sim network please. Was thinking of Samsung S21 but feel free to suggest me.
Hi
I think on a Rs. 50K budget there are three smartphone models that you can consider depending on gaming performance and battery life.
1. IQOO 9T :
It has the latest flagship processor from Qualcomm i.e. Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (TSMC) which performs better than snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in terms of thermal throttling and heat management. The same chipset is used in ROG Phone 6 Pro which is probably the best gaming smartphone right now. You can play most of the games in maximum settings. Battery life is also very good. It has a 4700mAh battery (which can easily last one and a half days, depends on your usage) with a 120W fast charger in the box which can full charge the battery within 30 minutes. It supports 9 bands of 5G and 4G carrier aggregation works as well. You can check the all the supported bands in the official page ( https://www.iqoo.com/in/products/param/iqoo-9t ).
The IQOO 9T starts from Rs. 49999. You can get upto Rs. 6000 discount on prepaid and selected bank card payments on official website. Also you will get a IQOO Gamepad worth Rs 3999 if you buy before 10th August.
2. Vivo x80 :
It comes with the lastest flaghip chipset from MediaTek i.e. Dimensity 9000 (TSMC) which also handles thermal throttling and heat management better than Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset (SAMSUNG) and it is also very power efficient. Gaming performance is top notch and battery life is also excellent. It has a 4500mAh battery (which can handle single day moderate to heavy usage ) with 80W fast charger in the box which can full charge the battery within 45 minutes. It supports 11 bands of 5G and 4G carrier aggregation works as well. You can check the all the supported bands in the official page ( https://www.vivo.com/in/products/param/x80 ).
The Vivo x80 starts from Rs. 54999. You can get Rs 3500 discount on selected bank card payments on official website and flipkart if you buy it before 9th August.
3. Oneplus 10T :
You can consider OnePlus 10T if you are an OnePlus fan and looking for a bloatware free OS then "Coloured" Oxygen OS 12 based on android 12 will fullfill your requirement because both IQOO 9T and Vivo x80 has Funtouch OS 12 based on android 12 which comes with bloatwares pre installed. It also has Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (TSMC) SoC whose performance is top notch. It has a 4800mAh battery (which can easily last one and a half days, depends on your usage) with a 150W SuperVOOC fast charger in the box which can full charge it within 20-25 minutes. It supports 11 bands of 5G and 4G carrier aggregation works as well. You can check the all the supported bands in the official page ( https://www.oneplus.in/10t/specs ).
The OnePlus 10T starts from Rs.49999. you can get upto Rs. 4250 discount on if you buy it before 10th August.
Among the three I think IQOO 9T is the best value for money smartphone according to your requirements.
Let me know if you have any confusion regarding the information. If you purchase any of the three smartphones, please share your experience after using it.
