Product Overview
Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 6 is a sports smartwatch with a significant bump over its predecessor while keeping its sleek profile design. Xiaomi improved primarily the watch's packaging: Unlike the Smart Band 5, the Mi Smart Band 6 is encased in a full aluminum chassis. This is fronted with a 1.56-inch OLED display with 326ppi pixel density.
Inside, the basic setup is more or less the same with the Smart Band 5. This includes 5 ATM water resistance and 14-day battery life backed with a 125mAh Lithium-ion polymer battery.
Still, the new model now supports over 30 fitness modes. More functionalities are also supported when paired with Xiaomi's latest smartphones.

Reviewer score 71%Xiaomi Mi Band 6 is an excellent fitness band for people interested in their overall health. It shows notifications from your phone with moderate regularity, with most, but not all, alerts showing on your wrist. The battery will last for two weeks before it needs a recharge, but this will depend on your own use. The whole band has 5ATM (50 meters) water resistance so it's suitable for swimming.
