Mi Band 5
In this paragraph I will only deal with the differences to the Chinese version. These aren't many, but they still make a difference. If you want all general information about the fitness tracker, you should read David's article take a look.
The Mi Band 5 is available for an RRP of 39 euros. (Image: Xiaomi)
Unfortunately, the Mi Band 5 will not support NFC in the global version, this could come with a possible "Pro version". I personally think this is very unlikely. There is also no “Amazon Echo” support.
The Mi Band 5 will be available in Germany at an RRP of 39,99 euros.
My TV Stick
The Mi TV Stick is a stripped-down version of the Xiaomi Mi Box, only as a "stick". In contrast to the Mi Box S, it only has one instead of two GB of RAM and only supports 1080P media. The 8 GB of memory are identical. Nevertheless, it has a Chromecast built in, comes with a remote control and runs with the latest Android TV 9. The Mi TV Stick will be available from around mid-August at an RRP of 39,99 euros.

My True Wireless Earphones 2 Basic
The Mi TWS 2 Basic are also a cheaper version of an already existing one Proproduct, namely the Xiaomi Mi Air 2. However, the "Basic Version" should still support some features. On Xiaomi smartphones there will be an already familiar "pop-up animation" for connecting and a kind of noise canceling to filter out ambient noise.

The battery life will be limited to 5 hours for the headphones directly and 2o hours for the case. In-ear detection is also supposed to stop the music when you take out headphones. The Mi True Wireless Earphones 2 Basic will be available in Germany from around the end of July at an RRP of 39,99 euros.
