AnTi, 14 Jul 2020Is there any chance that Pro version of Mi Band 5 will come... moreI can’t see much difference. Presently there are two models with or without NFC and the Chinese QR code shopping system. TBH after buying the BIP S this device is a no brainier. Only has Chinese and English language at present but for 43 dollars it’s excellent. Unfortunately mine had a fault and had to be returned. GPS worked well too and it’s syncs to the MI app and not the Amazfit one

If the NFC takes ~5 days off the battery life, then it's not really worth it (especially if you can't manually turn it off).
I wonder what phone they're going to announce, though. Mi A4? Or a new Mix phone? They should release the Mi 10 Lite Zoom Edition. It's been several months since the phone was released in China (as Mi 10 Lite Youth Edition).

Jakubko, 13 Jul 2020Rumor has it, the Pro version is on the way, maybe with NFC... moreYes it does come with the O2 sensor NFC but no Alexa. The O2 sensor does seem very slow to use, asking the wearer to breathe in and out following the app

If it is going to be sold outside of china,then why not include NFC, a key feature for me and a lot other, who use to pay. Disappointing Xiaomi.

Without NFC, the XIaomi trackers are useless to me and anyone who makes purchases with their tracker or smartwatch. Just being cheap doesn't cut it.
