At the Xiaomi CIVI launch event, the company also announced a bunch of ecosystem products. One of these is Xiaomi Watch Color 2, the successor to the Xiaomi Watch Color from late 2019. Let’s take a look a look at what the new smartwatch from Xiaomi has to offer.
Xiaomi Watch Color 2 Specifications and Features
Just like the original Xiaomi Watch Color and the Xiaomi Watch Color Sports Edition, the new Xiaomi Watch Color 2 flaunts a sporty design. The smartwatch features a metal bezel and weighs around 36.3g.
The body of the watch comes in three colors (White, Blue, and Black). However, customers can choose from six different-colored straps (White, Blue, Black, Yellow, Orange, and Green). The last three straps are sold separately, while the first three are part of the default package based on the color of the body.
The wearable sports a 1.43-inch circular AMOLED display with a 326 PPI and a 60Hz refresh rate. Users can customize this large screen by applying preferred watch faces from a collection of over 200.
Like any other smart wearable, this one also arrives with a PPG sensor for heart rate monitoring and an SpO2 sensor for blood oxygen level monitoring. It also has features like sleep tracking, stress monitoring, breathing training, menstrual cycle tracking, and more.
Further, the smartwatch comes with 117 sports modes and 19 professional sports modes. Since it has a dual-frequency GNSS chip (GPS, BeiDou, GLONASS), users need not carry their smartphone for locating tracking during workouts. The product is also 5 ATM water-resistant for durability.
The wearable pair with Android and iOS devices via the Xiaomi Wear application. It not only supports Bluetooth calling and Xiao AI virtual assistant for smart device controls but also limited third-party applications (only on Android). It also has NFC for contactless payments.
Last but not least, the Xiaomi Watch Color 2 is backed by a 470mAh battery, which is rated to last for 12 days on a full charge. The smartwatch takes around 2.5 hours to charge fully via a magnetic charger.
Xiaomi Watch Color 2 Price and Availability
The Xiaomi Watch Color 2 is priced at ¥999 in China. The wearable is already up for pre-order in the country. Customer pre-ordering the smartwatch gets a 100 discount. Hence, they only have to pay 899. The product will go on sale for the first time on September 30.
Since the original Xiaomi Watch Color and Xiaomi Watch Colors Sports Edition made their way to international markets with different brandings like Mi Watch, Mi Watch Revolve, and Mi Watch Revolve Active, the new Xiaomi Watch Color 2 could also release outside mainland China.
