Recently, Xiaomi confirmed that it will be announcing the Redmi Note 10S smartphone on May 13 in India. A new tweet reveals that the company will be also taking off covers from the Redmi Watch alongside the Note 10S.
The Redmi Watch will be the second wearable device from the brand after the Redmi Band, which is currently selling for Rs 1,399. It appears that Redmi Watch was originally announced back in November 2020 in China.
The specs of the Redmi Watch bear resemblance with the Xiaomi Mi Watch Lite, which debuted in December 2020 in global markets. As far as differences are concerned, the Mi Watch Lite supports more sports modes than the Redmi Watch.

The Mi Watch Lite supports GPS and GLONASS positioning but lacks NFC support. On the other hand, the Redmi Watch lacks GPS but comes with NFC support. The Redmi model is equipped with a built-in voice assistant, which is absent on the Mi Watch Lite as it lacks a microphone. Both watches have a 230mAh battery, but the MI model offers longer battery life of 9 days, whereas the Redmi variant offers 7 days of battery juice. There are high chances that the global Mi Watch Lite will be heading to India with the Redmi Watch moniker.
The Redmi Watch has a 1.4-inch IPS LCD display that offers 320 x 320 pixels resolution. It comes with 5ATM water resistance and Gorilla Glass 3 protection for the display. The smartwatch carries support for Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. It may come in multiple colors like black, blue, olive, pink, and ivory.
The Redmi Watch is expected to rival the Realme Watch 2 smartwatch, which is also expected to launch soon in India.
