Xiaomi’s wearable making subsidiary, Huami, has launched two of its latest smartwatches in India. The two smartwatches – the Amazfit BIP, and Amazfit Stratos, that also mark the entry of Huami in India are priced Rs 5,499 ($79) and Rs 15,999 ($232) respectively. Both the Amazfit BIP and Stratos offer not only smart functions but also fitness tracking and sports activity tracking as a package.
The Amazfit Stratos is the more premium one and has more features, as the price suggests. It has a relatively bigger 320 x 300p circular screen and can track more sports activities than the Amazfit BIP, thanks to the inbuilt gyroscope. It can track activities like swimming, skiing, Tennis matches and more which the BIP can’t. It has 4GB of storage and 512MB RAM. It is powered by a dual-core chipset clocked at 1.2GHz.
