Xiaomi may already be preparing its next Smart Band model for global markets. A new wearable carrying the model number M2561B1 has now appeared in regulatory databases from Taiwan’s NCC and Singapore’s IMDA, suggesting an international launch could be getting closer.
Both certifications list the device simply as a “Smart Band,” without revealing its official marketing name. Still, the model numbering gives a fairly strong hint about where it fits in Xiaomi’s lineup.
For reference, Xiaomi previously used model numbers M2551B1 and M2553B1 for the standard and NFC versions of the recently launched Smart Band 10 Pro. Because of that, the newly spotted M2561B1 is widely expected to belong to the upcoming Smart Band 11 family.
Some early speculation points to it possibly being the Smart Band 11 Active, although the certification documents themselves do not confirm that yet.
The timing is interesting as well. Xiaomi only recently introduced the Smart Band 10 Pro in China, bringing upgrades like a 1.74-inch curved AMOLED display, updated health sensors, and improved fitness tracking features. Meanwhile, the previous Smart Band 9 Pro continues to remain one of the more popular budget fitness trackers in several global markets.
Xiaomi’s Smart Band series has built a reputation around offering useful health and fitness features without pushing prices too high. Heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, long battery life, and dozens of workout modes have become standard across the lineup, helping the series stay competitive against more expensive wearables.
At this stage, the new certification listings do not reveal any hardware details, but they do strongly suggest Xiaomi is preparing another wearable launch outside China. If the device is indeed part of the Smart Band 11 series, users can probably expect further refinements to tracking accuracy, software features, and battery optimization.
With the certifications now surfacing internationally, it likely may not take too long before more concrete details about Xiaomi’s next Smart Band begin to appear.
