Honor Band 3 vs Mi Band 3
The Mi Band 3 was launched in China alongside the Mi 8 and Mi 8 SE smartphones at Xiaomi’s 8th Anniversary event last month. It features a 0.78-inch OLED display and is rated for up to 5 ATM water resistance. In terms of battery life, Xiaomi claims the Mi Band 3 is capable of providing up to 20 days of stamina on a single charge. Some of its other key features include a PPG heart-rate sensor, triaxial acceleration, sleep monitoring, NFC support, and all the usual fitness tracking capabilities. Once it launches in India, the Mi Band 3 will be taking on the Honor Band 3 directly. However, as you can tell from the specs above, the Honor Band 3 does have a slight edge over the Xiaomi fitness tracker.
