Sony is celebrating a decade of PlayStation in China with a rather unexpected product—a PlayStation-branded fitness tracker. The special edition wearable surfaced on PlayStation China’s Weibo account in a blue box. And by the looks of it, it seems like a reskinned Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro rather than an entirely new device.
Take a look at the PlayStation-branded fitness tracker
At first glance, the PlayStation version of the tracker doesn’t bring any major design overhauls. The main visual change is the strap, which now features PlayStation’s signature face button icons and the familiar logo.
Alongside the themed strap, the package reportedly includes a plain black alternative, a commemorative card, and a charging cable. However, Sony hasn’t revealed whether there are any software customizations to reflect the gaming brand’s presence on the device.
Under the hood, the Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro comes with solid hardware for a budget fitness tracker. It sports a 1.74-inch OLED screen with a 60Hz refresh rate and 1200 nits of brightness.
Its shell is made out of aluminum and is water-resistant up to 5 ATM, allowing you to wear it worry-free during swims. It’s also feather-light at 24.5 grams and a mere 10.8 millimeters thin.
As a fitness band, it’s natural that the Band 9 Pro offers standard health-tracking features such as heart rate, SpO2, sleep monitoring, and menstrual cycle tracking. Fitness enthusiasts also get support for over 150 sports modes, GPS tracking, and an impressive battery life claim of up to 21 days.
Sony hasn’t shared whether this PlayStation-themed fitness tracker will be available outside China. Given that limited-edition PlayStation products often remain exclusive to specific markets, global availability seems unlikely. Still, if you’re a hardcore PlayStation fan and happen to be in China, this could be a unique addition to your collection.
