For the specifications of the forthcoming Xiaomi Band 7, it has been reported that the next-gen model will come with a capacity of its battery of 250 mAh, up from the 125 mAh capacity of the previous Band 6.

Another reason why the Chinese brand is expanding the battery life on Mi Band 7 is because of the speculation about a built-in GPS sensor. It is believed that the Smartwatch Watch S1 that was launched with that the Xiaomi 12 already has GPS connectivity. If this is true, it's the first time a Xiaomi fitness band has been equipped with this feature.
The smart tracker coming out will also sport a bigger display, thanks to the additional resolution of 490 x 192 pixels. The Xiaomi Mi Band 6 we examined last year sports the 1.56-inch AMOLED display with a 152x486-pixel resolution. It's safe to say that Xiaomi will choose to go with an aspect ratio larger for the display.
