A tracker under a hundred dirhams rarely bothers with watch face variety, but the Xiaomi Smart Band 8 Active Pink ships with over 100 pre-installed faces, so the screen itself can be restyled constantly without ever connecting to an app store or paying for extras.

Smart Band 8 Active Pink: 100+ Watch Faces Included
Every face is available immediately in the Xiaomi Mi Fitness app with no separate purchase, covering everything from minimal digital layouts to busier faces packed with stats. Combined with the interchangeable strap colours in the range, the look of the tracker changes far more than the modest price would suggest.
What the Lower Price Actually Trades Away
Compared with the standard Smart Band 8, this version drops the AMOLED screen for TFT LCD, skips Always-On Display and the ambient light sensor, and reduces sports modes from 150-plus down to just over 50 with no built-in GPS. Every one of these is a deliberate cost-saving choice rather than a manufacturing shortcut, and the core health tracking remains genuinely intact.
Full launch detail is in this Notebookcheck report on the Smart Band 8 Active launch.

Smart Band 8 Active Pink: Core Health Tracking
Continuous heart rate, blood oxygen, sleep stage tracking and stress monitoring all remain present despite the lower price, alongside female health tracking through the same Mi Fitness app used across Xiaomi’s wearable range. The core health features were not the part Xiaomi cut to hit this price point.
Who Pink Suits
Because the strap is easy to change out, choosing Pink now does not lock you into the colour permanently if your preference shifts later.
Pink is a soft, muted tone that reads as considered rather than childish, distinct enough to spot instantly on a gym bench or desk. It suits anyone who wants a visible personal touch without spending extra for it.
Smart Band 8 Active Pink Battery Life
Xiaomi rates the 210 mAh cell at up to 14 days under typical use, and independent testing by one reviewer reported around 12 days with regular heart rate monitoring and notifications enabled, dropping to about 5 days under heavier daily workout tracking. That real-world figure lines up closely with the official rating.
