Xiaomi certified the Smart Band 8 at NRRA Korea and the listing came with images that reveal key details about the wearable. The images reveal that the device itself will stick to the pill-shaped design, but for the first time the strap will be a two-piece instead of a rubber loop.
It’s not the first time Xiaomi has implemented this solution in its wearables – the Redmi Watch 3 and Smart Band 7 Pro also had two-part straps that needed a small fastening mechanism. However, it is the first time that the company’s most affordable band gets the new solution.
In terms of specifications, the NRRA said nothing about the band. However, given the fact that the Smart Band 8 is indeed collecting certifications in markets around the world with the model number M2239B1, a launch should be just around the corner.
