Mijia Weibo post confirming new wearables

The Mi Band 5 is expected to bring a 1.2-inch OLED color display and NFC on global units which would allow for contactless payments. Up until now, NFC was only available on Chinese Mi Band units. Apart from the update display and expanded NFC functionality we don’t know much about the new band.

According to speculation, the Mi Band 5 will launch at CNY 180 ($25) in China. As usual, the wearable will arrive to global markets later on.
