Xiaomi Mi Band 3 and Mi Band 4 unlock Windows notebooks with the new firmware

The latest firmware update of Xiaomi Mi Band 3 and Xiaomi Mi Band 4 allows owners of Windows notebooks to unlock the device through Chinese bracelets.

Xiaomi Mi Band 3 and Xiaomi Mi Band 4, the Chinese company’s low-cost bracelets, have just received a new firmware update that fixes several bugs related to the user interface. In addition to the usual bug fixes, there is news, including a feature that allows you to unlock a Windows notebook, and support for AppleID log-ins for the first time in the line-up.

The Xiaomi Mi Band is one of the most popular products on the wearable market, because of the aggressive cost on the market: small, comfortable to use (even at night), and with a decidedly long-lasting operating autonomy. The Xiaomi SmartBand costs very little (a few tens of dollars). It offers the necessary proportions of all the features that the average user may need.

Firmware update for Xiaomi Mi Band 3 and 4

No frills, but only a lot of substance. Today on Amazon, Xiaomi Mi Band 4 costs about $32, and at this price, there is nothing comparable. With the new updates, Xiaomi has corrected one of the band’s shortcomings, such as the possibility of using it to unlock a connected computer. Unfortunately, the feature is only enabled on the Indian market for now, and it works with Windows.

The Mi Fit app (version 4.0.17) is also updated, which now allows Xiaomi bracelets of the last two generations to access using Apple ID credentials. The update also includes bug fixes on the two devices. The new firmware released on the bracelets is instead of v1.0.9.42, for Mi Band 3 or 4. To date, there seems to be no news for the new Mi Band 3i.
