This one features a 1.08-inch colour OLED display that is noticeably larger than the AMOLED display on the Mi Band 4. The fitness band offers 24-hour heart-rate monitoring as well as five professional sports modes tracking along with sleep monitoring ability. It also comes with the usual calorie and step counters, wake to raise gesture and a 5ATM rating which means it is water-resistant to up to 50 meters of depth for 10 minutes.
