The Redmi Watch is finally official in India, marking Xiaomi sub-brand Redmi's debut in the smartwatch category. Weighing just 35 grams and packing in-built GPS, the Redmi Watch arrives to take on rivals like the Realme Watch and Amazfit Bip U Pro. It launched at the same event as the Redmi Note 10S smartphone, signalling Redmi's wider push into India's connected-device market. Below we break down the price, specs and standout features in full.
Redmi Watch design and display
The Redmi Watch features a 1.4-inch TFT LCD display with a 320x320 pixel resolution, topped by 2.5D curved glass for a smooth, scratch-resistant finish. The company claims the panel reaches a peak brightness of 350 nits, which should help readability when you glance at it outdoors. At a featherlight 35 grams, the watch is built for all-day comfort and barely registers on the wrist during workouts or sleep tracking.
On the personalisation front, buyers can pick from four strap colour options - Ivory, Black, Blue and Olive - along with three watch case colour options: Ivory, Black and Blue. The mix-and-match approach lets you tailor the look to your style, and the standard 20mm strap size keeps replacements easy to source.
Redmi Watch built-in GPS, sensors and fitness tracking
A key highlight here is the Redmi Watch built-in GPS, which is joined by GLONASS and Bluetooth 5.1 (Low Energy) for connectivity. The onboard sensor array is comprehensive for the price, including a PPG heart rate sensor, a three-axis acceleration sensor, a geomagnetic sensor, a barometer, a gyroscope and an ambient light sensor that adjusts the screen automatically.
On the fitness side, the watch supports 11 sports modes covering running, hiking, walking, cycling, swimming, cricket and more, making it versatile enough for casual and dedicated users alike. Health and wellness features include 24/7 heart rate detection, sleep tracking, guided breathing, air pressure detection and step counting. It also offers more than 200 watch faces, 5 ATM water resistance, music control, alarms, weather and app notifications.
Battery, processor and key specifications
The company says the Redmi Watch delivers up to 10 days of battery life on a single charge and can be fully recharged in roughly two hours. At launch, Redmi did not disclose the processor, RAM or storage details of its first smartwatch. Here is a quick look at the confirmed specifications.
