Open the box on Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro: Large 1.74 inch screen, battery up to 21 days

Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro is the new generation of the Xiaomi Smart Band Pro Series product line and I have had the opportunity to experience this device for a while. Below are my initial feelings about Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro.

Machine box and accessories

The box of Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro has the main white color tone with the image and product name prominent on the front side. The left side of the box also prints more highlight information of the smart bracelet such as AMOLED screen, long battery life, integrated GNSS positioning,...

This is the front side of the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro box.

These are the accessories in the box of Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro.

Overview of appearance, design details

The large screen factor is one of the important highlights for the Xiaomi Smart Band Pro series and this is no exception with the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro. The device still has a 1.74 inch screen similar to its 3 predecessors (Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro / 8 Pro / 7 Pro). Besides, the four edges around the screen are curved in 2.5D shape.

Because I used to use its predecessor Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro, I am not too unfamiliar with the design of Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro.

The aluminum alloy frame of Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro is lightly curved and has a rough finish.

Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro also has a ceramic frame version similar to the Xiaomi Smart Band 10. This is a notable upgrade compared to the previous generation but unfortunately I have not had the opportunity to hold the device directly.

I have flexible wrists so many devices look good on me, including the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro.

The left and right sides of the device have no physical buttons.

The top and bottom of the device are both designed with latches to secure the product to the strap.

The bottom of the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro is where the health monitoring sensor is located. Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro comes with a soft and skin-friendly TPU strap. I like that Xiaomi designed a click strap mount on the back (which has appeared since the Xiaomi Smart Band 8 Pro). Thanks to this type of mount, I can remove the wire very easily and change the wire style when necessary.

I like the TPU strap on Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro because this material is soft and skin-friendly. To share more with you, at first I didn't know how to press the strap button, so the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro strap often slipped while wearing it. Only then did I realize and press harder to make the wire fit into the joint more securely.

If I press the strap button as shown on the left, the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro easily slips out of my hand. The picture on the right is the correct way to press the strap button.

The device also has a strap attachment/removal mechanism that is very easy and convenient. The feeling of wearing Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro is light and comfortable thanks in part to the device weight of less than 30 g. I can comfortably move and practice sports with this smart bracelet.

I like the feeling of wearing the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro.

Configuration parameters

I will quickly review the configuration parameters of Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro based on information from the product homepage:

Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro has built-in Xiaomi HyperOS 3 operating system.

As soon as you connect the device to Mi Fitness software (Android / iOS), the system notifies you of a new software update. Too much!

A few highlights

The time I used Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro was still short and not enough for me to fully understand the product. Therefore, in the product highlights section, I will use more information from the manufacturer for your reference. 1. Large 1.74 inch screen, AMOLED panel: One of the important strengths of Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro is the screen. According to my experience, Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro offers good display quality, showing a lot of content when I view notifications. Besides, this screen also has high brightness to help you see it when used outdoors. Another very important point is that the notice board supports Vietnamese display without font errors.

The large 1.74 inch screen of Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro helps me see many notifications' content. I am also satisfied with the device's notification speed and no Vietnamese errors. 2. Battery life up to 21 days with light intensity: The manufacturer shares that Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro can operate up to 21 days with intense use light.

According to my practical experience, the device can operate continuously for about 7 days with relatively heavy usage. More specifically, I use the device to track exercise at least 5 days a week (each session lasts 1 hour). Besides, I wear the device continuously (except when taking a shower), and at the same time turn on the AOD screen, heart rate monitoring functions, stress, and blood oxygen levels.

The battery life of Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro is good enough for my usage needs. 3. Upgraded sleep algorithm, capable of monitoring average HRV during sleep: The manufacturer shares that Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro is integrated with sleep algorithm 2.0 to provide 11% more accurate results than its predecessor Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro.

In addition, this smart bracelet is also equipped with the function of monitoring the average HRV index (heart rate variability) during sleep. This index helps us monitor sleep quality, and the body's energy recovery and cell repair processes can occur normally.

Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro has the function of monitoring average HRV index while sleeping - an upgrade compared to its predecessor Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro. If I had to suggest a smart bracelet to someone, I would suggest Xiaomi Smart Band 10. In case that friend has slightly higher needs, I would choose Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro. How about you? See more:
