Xiaomi is not only the leading smartphone brand in India, but the Chinese handset maker is also the top-selling wearable company in the country. Thanks to the affordable price tag of the Mi Band 2 and Mi Band HRX Edition, Xiaomi rose to the top position in the wearables category in India. Now the brand is looking to cement its position at the top and brought the Mi Band 3 to India at an aggressive price of Rs 1,999. The Mi Band 3 is a major upgrade over the Mi Band 2 and offers additional features such as continuous heart rate monitoring, bigger display and a slightly larger battery. Here are the top five features of the Mi Band 3 which make it a worthy purchase.

The recently launched Mi Band 3 comes with a lot of new features, and of course, it offers all of that at Xiaomi’s competitive and attractive price point. No wonder, the Mi Band 3 is bound to give some solid competition to other fitness bands from Huawei or other Chinese manufacturers. Since the Mi Band 3 is already available in China, India and several other regions, here are the top 5 features of the Mi Band 3 before you make a purchase.
Touchscreen
Among the striking highlights of the Mi Band 3 is the 0.78-inch OLED display which comes with a 128 x 80 resolution. The screen although remains a black and white one, its bigger size lets the device show more information now than before. Owing to the touch-sensitive display, users will now be able to navigate easily through the UI. The touch-sensitive screen will allow the users to reject calls as well.
Battery
The Xiaomi Mi Band 3 cases a 110mAh battery, and since this device comes with a continuous heart rate monitor, it’s not going to last as much as the Mi Band 2. However, the band can still last up to 20 days when the tracking feature is turned off. Given that the screen gets bigger and there are a lot more features than the Mi Band 2, the Mi Band 3 definitely offers a powerful battery.
