Xiaomi‘s Smart Band 9, the successor to the popular Smart Band 8, may be closer to a global launch than previously anticipated. While the device was recently unveiled in China, new developments suggest an expedited international rollout.
An Amazon Italy listing for the Smart Band 9 with an August 19 release date has surfaced, though pricing details remain unverified. This potential early global release differs from Xiaomi’s usual pattern of delayed international launches for its wearable products.
A report from Gadgets & Wearables has claimed that this upcoming wearable will cost €39.99 on Amazon Italy, a slight increase from the €36.99 price tag of its predecessor. As mentioned above, the pricing has not yet been officially revealed. That said, we can pretty much expect the Smart Band 9 global model to come with specs and features identical to those of the Chinese model.
Xiaomi Smart Band 9 specs:
The Xiaomi Band 9 has a 1.62-inch AMOLED display with a brightness of 1200 nits and over 200 watch faces for customization.
Health monitoring is 16% more accurate for heart rate compared to the previous model and includes blood oxygen and stress tracking. Sleep tracking has also been improved, suggesting optimal sleep cycles for better recovery.
There are over 150 workout modes, including guided running courses. The Band 9 connects via Bluetooth 5.4 and provides basic smart features like music control, message replies, and weather updates.
Some models include NFC for contactless payments. It is water-resistant up to 50 meters, making it suitable for swimming. The 233mAh battery offers up to 21 days of use on a single charge.
