An official listing by Redmi has confirmed that there are three major highlights of the Redmi Note 9 5G launch event that will be held on Nov. 26 in China. Redmi General Manager Lu Weibing will be hosting a talk show mostly to talk about the new products. A screengrab of the official listing shows that the company will also unveil new smart products at the event. Since Weibing already teased the arrival of the Redmi Watch earlier this month, it appears that the first smartwatch by Redmi may get unveiled alongside the Note 9 5G series.
The Redmi Watch’s MIIT certification from September revealed its model number is REDMIWT01. In the same month, the Xiaomi Mi Watch Lite was spotted with model number REDMIWT02 model number at the UL (Demko) certification. Since both have similar model numbers, it appears the Redmi Watch could be made available with the Xiaomi Mi Watch Lite moniker in markets outside of China.
Last month, the Xiaomi Mi Watch Lite bagged certification from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The listing had revealed that the Mi Watch Lite has a square-shaped color display of 1.4 inches. The screen carries support for the auto-brightness feature.
The Mi Watch Lite offers 50ATM water resistance and many fitness modes including 24-hour heart rate monitoring. The device is backed by a 230mAh battery that supports 5W charging. The smartwatch is also equipped with built-in GPS and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity.
Now that the same watch is likely to launch in China as the Redmi Watch, both devices could be packed with identical specs. At present, there is no word on its pricing.
