The Xiaomi Smart Band 8 joins our comparison of the best connected bracelets

On December 5, we had the pleasure of revealing our test of the Xiaomi Smart Band 8. Qualitative and practical, it joined our comparison of the best connected bracelets. Why did we choose this model? What is its key asset? Our answer in this article!

An ever brighter and more fluid AMOLED screen

The quality of the screen is certainly what most characterizes the Xiaomi Smart Band 8. Its maximum brightness of 600 nits ensures optimal readability, even in broad daylight with bright sunlight. In addition, the refresh rate reaches 60 Hz, for a smooth experience. Whether for sport or simply as a utility item on the wrist, the Xiaomi connected bracelet is very practical.

How does the Xiaomi Smart Band 8 compare to its competitors in the same price range?

These two connected bracelets clearly play in the same league. Their reasonable price is what characterizes them the most. But compared to Xiaomi, the Honor model systematically finds itself a notch behind. The autonomy is certainly good, but inferior to the Smart Band 8. Above all, the screen is less interesting. It shares AMOLED technology, but is less fluid and less bright. You will have understood, our heart swings more towards the Xiaomi model.

Xiaomi, a reference for accessible connected bracelets

As the name suggests, Xiaomi Smart Band 8 is not the first in the series. Since the Mi Band released in 2015, significant progress has been made. The connected bracelet has gained in autonomy (already excellent at the time) and has been equipped with more complete features, particularly for sport. Compared to its big brother, the Smart Band 7, Xiaomi offers us a brighter and more fluid AMOLED screen, from 50 Hz to 60 Hz. All with a price positioning that does not change!
