Last year, in December, Xiaomi had launched the Mi Watch Color as a watered-down variant of the Mi Watch. Today, as expected, the company has launched a new variant in its home market — Mi Watch Color Sports Edition.
The Xiaomi Mi Watch Color Sports Edition has been priced at 699 yuan, which is approximately $105. It will be available for pre-order from today and during the pre-sale period, it will be available for 649 yuan, which is about $97. The company will start shipping the device from 1st November.
The highlight of this newly announced smartwatch is that it comes with a SpO2 sensor for blood oxygen detection, a feature that was missing in the original model launched last year.

The smartwatch features a 1.39-inch HD AMOLED display that supports Always-On mode. It seems that the company has added 120 watch faces on the device and has added support for 117 sports mode to track fitness and health-related activities.
Apart from the SpO2 detector, there’s also an ultra-wide-range heart rate sensor and the device comes packed with a new high-end GPS chip to track movements. Along with Bluetooth 5.0, it also supports NFC for connectivity.
The device is powered by a 420mAh battery and the company claims that it can provide 16 days of usage on a single charge. The Xiaomi Mi Watch Color Sports Edition comes in three colors options — Black, Blue, and White while the straps come in six different colors.
