This thread is to share known features, not to share personal opinion about a device. Please respect this :).

Maybe. Since Xiaomi sole partner with Huami and Huami own amazfit. It could happen..

The spec of the Amazefit 6 mentions a clip dock for charging in the fine print so it seems it is not magnetic like the Mi Band 5.

Also, in searching for potential chipsets on the Amazefit, I found this: Huami's Next Wearable AI Chip Huangshan-2 Scheduled for Mass Production in Q4, 2020, 50% Energy Saved with Faster Atrial Fibrillation Detection

Based on what it says the newchipset Huangshan 2 will start production Q4 2020 so that is still months away. I suggest that Amazefit 6 will be using the gen 1 of the chipset because there is SomusCare access on the AF6 as noted on Magical Unicorn's screen shots. Huangshan 1 chipset supplies this feature.

The second gen chipset seems to have massive power saving and we might see it debut on the Mi Band 6.

There is also this from a translated Chinese site: Google Translate

This is my first post here, so if I have not posted in the correct location, Admin, I apologise.

a clip dock with pogo pins ? that could be similar to the way MB4 is charging (horrible!) . where did you see specs mentioning a clip dock for charging?

From Zepp (formerly Amazfit) 4.8.9 there is some things interesting like Tokyo is the codename for Amazfit Neo, Lisbon for Amazfit GTR 2, Newton for Amazfit GTS 2.

smali_classes8\com\xiaomi\hm\health\device\deviceconfig\configs\MILI_TOKYO.smali


smali_classes8\com\xiaomi\hm\health\device\deviceconfig\configs\MILI_LISBON.smali


smali_classes8\com\xiaomi\hm\health\device\deviceconfig\configs\MILI_NEWTON.smali

But there is something even better : York is now Amazfit Band 5 instead of Amazfit Band 6.

res\values\strings.xml


smali_classes8\com\xiaomi\hm\health\device\deviceconfig\configs\MILI_YORK.smali

So, what's now Athens, the Amazfit Band 5 until now ? It's always Amazfit Band 5.

smali_classes8\com\xiaomi\hm\health\device\deviceconfig\configs\MILI_ATHENS.smali
But, compared to York, in strings.xml file Athens is only Athens.

So what is the benefit of declaring in code both York and Athens as the Amazefit Band 5?
That's a good question, and why rename York Amazfit Band 5 when we already saw the Aliexpress page fully ready with for name Amazfit Band 6 ?

Personally I have no idea, wait and see to know more about that :).

Could both declarations just be a placeholder and they have made allowance for rebranding Athens or York as a yet unknown new model name?

Or maybe they are on to you MU, and they are trying to throw you off the scent ;)

From Mi Fit and Zepp applications, we know Mi Band 5 Pro (Kongming Pro) will be XMSH14HM, and will have NFC.

In com/huami/nfc/web/NfcDevice (Zepp):
Code:
public static final String DEVICE_MODEL_KONG_MING_PRO = "XMSH14HM";
