It is already known that Xiaomi will be announcing a handful of products tomorrow. While the Xiaomi 11T series, the Mi Pad 5, and a new Mi 11 Lite phone are already confirmed, a new leak has revealed a list of other products that will also make an appearance at the global launch event.

The Xiaomi event will also include the launch of a new smart TV called the Xiaomi Smart TV Q1E according to Ishan Agarwal, the young Indian leaker. He also mentioned in an exclusive report by 91Mobiles that Xiaomi will also announce the Mi Smart Band 6 NFC Edition, the AX3000 Router, and a new projector called the Mi Smart Projector 2.

The Smart TV Q1E is rumored to be a rebadge of one of Xiaomi’s TVs sold in China but this should come with Android TV (or maybe even Google TV) pre-installed. It has been stated that the TV will have a 55-inch screen which may be an OLED panel.

Xiaomi already launched the Mi Smart Band 6 in Europe, and it arrived in India last month. However, the model sold in both regions doesn’t have NFC and thus can’t be used for payments. With the launch of the NFC Edition tomorrow, folks who use payment services such as Google Pay can pick up the fitness tracker.

Less than two months ago, Xiaomi launched the Xiaomi Router AX9000, a Wi-Fi 6 router with a special band for gamers. Now it plans to launch a new one called the Mi Router AX3000, not to be confused with the Redmi AX3000. The Xiaomi Router AX3000 is sold in China for ¥349 (~$54) which is pretty affordable but the global version is expected to cost more. It is powered by a Qualcomm chip, has 256MB of memory, 4 hidden antenna, and 4 signal amplifier.

Last but not least is the Mi Smart Projector 2 which should be a more affordable version of the Mi Smart Projector 2 Pro that was announced in March 2021. The pro model launched for €999 and may be out of the reach of several folks. With the standard model, which should also run Android TV out of the box, more people should be able to pick up a Xiaomi projector.

All of these products should be announced in Europe but it remains to be seen which of them make it to other regions.

Xiaomi may be preparing for the European rollout of the Mi Band 6 NFC, going by details officially provided by the company that the device has been certified in Italy. The Mi Band 6 series was released back in March 2021 in China, and no foreign market has had the NFC version since then.

The two models in the Mi Band 6 series differ only in terms of NFC connectivity. The Mi Band series has often seen a staggered release of the higher model. This was the case with the Mi Smart Band 4 NFC which took about a year for it to be unveiled globally, after the release of the non-NFC version.

The Italian certification most probably indicates that the Mi Band 6 NFC will soon be found in European markets. It may well start with Italy, going by the certification announcement, but would obviously shift to other countries in the region.

The Xiaomi Mi Band 6 NFC is an elegant smart wearable device with an array of impressive features including various sensors for monitoring vital statistics. It is also possible that the Mi Band 6 NFC will support greater functionality than the Mi Smart Band 4 NFC, which also had support for Mastercard bank cards.

As per pricing, it is still unclear what the price of the Mi Band 6 NFC would be. However, it is expected to be higher than that of the Mi Band 6, which is sold for $44 on Amazon. We expect the Xiaomi Mi Band 6 NFC to be pricier than the $44 tag for the non-NFC version of the smart wearable.

Xiaomi India posted a teaser video on Twitter today, teasing the Mi Band 6 in the country. This is the first official teaser for the Mi Band 6 in India. Notably, one of the brand execs had already confirmed its launch at the Smarter Event next week.

The tweet mentions, “Back with a bang, and this time- bigger and better! With a vivid AMOLED Display, the Mi Smart Band6, offers more at just a glance.” As we know, the Mi Band 6 comes with an edge to edge AMOLED display, and the tweet from the company reiterates the same.

The Mi Band 6 is set to be announced at Xiaomi India’s Smarter Living 2022 event on August 26. The company is also expected to announce newer Mi Notebook models, a smart security camera and a new WiFi router.

Mi Band 6 Features and Specifications

The Mi Band 6 comes with a 1.56-inch AMOLED display having a resolution of 152×486 pixels and a 2.5D curved glass on top of it. The display offers 50% more brightness than its predecessor.

The Mi Band 6 offers more than 130 watch faces, with 60 available on the global unit. It brings the functionality of customizing the watch faces with their photos. The Mi Band 6 also gets the animated watch faces from its predecessor, the Mi Band 5. The fitness band is backed up by a 125mAh LiPo battery, which would last you 14 days.

The Mi Band 6 supports up to 30 exercise modes with auto-detection enabled for some activities, including outdoor running, walking, treadmill running, outdoor cycling, rowing, and elliptical training. It also comes with support for 24×7 heart rate monitoring (PPG) and SpO2 (Blood Oxygen measurement).

Xiaomi India has scheduled its Smarter Living 2022 event for August 26 at 12 PM. For those who don’t know, ‘Smarter Living’ is the Chinese tech giant’s annual launch event in India to unveil a bunch of ecosystem products. That said, though the company has just begun to tease this year’s edition, it has already revealed some of the products that will be announced next week.

According to exclusive resorts by Moneycontrol and India Today, Xiaomi has confirmed to launch a high-end WiFi router, a security camera, Mi Band 6, and a Mi Notebook at the ‘Smarter Living 2022’ event in India on August 26.

As a whole, the company is said to announce 5-6 products across entertainment, connectivity, and security categories. Unfortunately, though the firm has revealed four products, we have very few details about them, except for the Mi Band 6, which is being sold in multiple markets for months now.

As of now, Xiaomi has only confirmed that the upcoming Mi Notebook model will not only have a backlit keyboard but also a built-in webcam. These two features are not present on the Mi Notebook 14 and Mi Notebook 14 Horizon Edition released last year.

Further, the official Mi TV India is also teasing a product. Hence, we can expect either new Mi TV models or a Mi TV streaming device. Other than that, Xiaomi has confirmed India Today that the firm will also launch a new pair of truly wireless earphones but at a later date.

Since we are more than a week away from Xiaomi Smarter Living 2022 event, we expect the company to tease the products leading up to the day of their launch.

Xiaomi Mi Band 6, launched for the global market as Mi Smart Band 6, is the successor to the Mi Smart Band 5 and it has already enjoyed a firmware update back in April 2021. It is a very popular wearable device both in China and in other regions where it is currently available. It is small, lightweight (weighs just 12.8g), affordable, and comes with some extended features.

The previous firmware update of the Mi Smart Band 6 saw the addition of breath monitoring during sleep tracking. The new firmware update which has version number 1.0,4.38 has now added a flashlight feature and support for more languages. The rollout of the new update is already running in the UK, Kuwait, and the Czech Republic, while other countries will enjoy the update subsequently. The new flashlight feature will help users to have better visibility in dark places. It illuminates the screen of the Mi Smart Band 6 when activated although it is not as powerful as that of a smartphone, for example.

Users of the Mi Smart Band 6 who want to update their firmware are advised to first update the Mi Fit app to version 5.3.0 so as to have a seamless update. Going by the trajectory of updates for the Mi Smart Band 6, additional features have been gradually added to the device whenever there is a new firmware update. The device provides several monitoring options including menstrual cycle tracking for women, blood sugar monitoring (SpO2), heart rate tracking, and additional sports modes from its predecessor.

The Mi Smart Band 6 has a 1.56-inch AMOLED touch screen with a sharp 325ppi resolution and a capacitive display, with no touch-sensitive key present. It is 5ATM waterproof-rated and its 125mAh battery can last up to 2 weeks of normal usage. The Mi Smart Band 6 has a magnetic charger that can charge the device from 5% to 100% in under 2 hours.

The Mi Smart Band 6 is yet to be available in some countries including India, so we expect more rollout information from Xiaomi soon.

About a month ago, Lei Jun, Founder and CEO of Xiaomi had announced that the shipments of Mi Band 6 has crossed the mark of one million units. Now, Zeng Xuezhong, Vice President of Xiaomi Group and President of Mobile Phone Division has posted on Weibo that the total global shipments of Mi Band 6 have exceeded three million units.

For the uninitiated, the Xiaomi Mi Band 6 is the latest version of the wearable fitness tracker from the Chinese giant launched in March this year. It comes in two variants, a standard model without NFC support and another with NFC support.

While the Mi Band 6 was announced in March, the device went on sale in China from 2nd April and in less than a month, overall sales of the wearable crossed 1 million. Now, in about two months, the sales have crossed the 3 million mark globally.

The standard version is priced at 229 yuan which is approximately $36 while the NFC variant costs 279 yuan which roughly converts to $44.

The Mi Band 6 features a 1.56 inch AMOLED color display which amounts to a 50 percent increase in the display area and offers 326PPI. Xiaomi ditched the physical touch button and has introduced support for gestures.

It is capable of tracking the blood oxygen levels along with being capable of monitoring heart rate and users’ sleep as well. Furthermore, the fitness tracker also features other health and sports tracking features, including 30 sports modes with support for tracking running, cycling, walking, and many more.

There are six auto-detect exercise modes, 24×7 heart rate monitoring (PPG), and SpO2 (Blood Oxygen measurement). The device is rated 5ATM for water resistance and is powered by a 125mAh LiPo battery with up to 14 days of battery life.

Mi Band 6 aka Mi Smart Band 6 is the latest fitness tracker from Xiaomi. The company announced it in late March. Since then, the wearable has made its way to multiple markets. In fact, the firm managed to ship over a million units within a month from its availability. Now, almost two months after its announcement, the device is receiving a new firmware update with a much-awaited feature.

Soon after its release, the Mi Band 6 got a firmware update for features related to sleep tracking. Now, Xiaomi is rolling out another update for this wearable, which bumps up the firmware version to 1.0.1.32.

The latest firmware update for the Mi Band 6 (Mi Smart Band 6) arrives with Mi Fit v5.1.0 (companion app). Hence, in order to install the new firmware, users will have to update the Mi Fit app from the Google Play Store, GetApps, Mi App Store, or Apple App Store.

According to the official changelog, the new update adds support for text message replies. Hence, the Mi Band 6 becomes the first-ever fitness tracker from Xiaomi to let users reply to text messages. 

We are not sure how this feature works as we don’t have access to a Mi Band 6 right now. But it looks like this feature is limited to China and users will be able to only send pre-defined replies to incoming text messages and calls. Anyway, what we know is that this feature only works on Mi Band 6 paired with Android smartphones.

The latest firmware update also brings pomodoro function, increased pace goal setting for outdoor running, support for new transit passes (Greentown Pass, Ganzhou Pass, Shaoxing Pass), and bug fixes.

Back at the launch, Xiaomi talked about this feature on the Mi Band 6 and said that it monitors your breathing quality while you are asleep. Speaking of which, it also has sleep tracking with REM & non-REM options.

REM sleep is basically sleep occurring at intervals during the night and is characterized by rapid eye movements, more dreaming, faster pulse, breathing, and body movements. If you are too much into your work and your stress level shoots up, you might experience an improper sleep cycle at times.

REM sleep tracking, when combined with the sleep breathing quality, can help you figure out how frequently are you experiencing the discomfort. Anyway, to update the Mi Band 6, ensure that the Mi Fit App is on version 5.0.0.

These aren’t the main feature available on the Mi Band 6. It has more than 130+ watch faces(China), 60+ watch faces(global), 30 exercise modes, 6 auto-detect exercise modes, 24×7 heart rate monitoring(PPG), SpO2(Blood Oxygen measurement).

Xiaomi’s Mi Band line of fitness trackers has been a huge success. Last year, it announced the Mi Band 5 in June in China before a global release in July as the Mi Smart Band 5. Less than a year later, a successor is on the way and it will launch as the Mi Band 6.

The new fitness tracker has been confirmed to launch on March 29, the same day Xiaomi will announce the Mi 11 Pro, Mi 11 Ultra, and new Mi MIX phone. The new fitness tracker is expected to pack new features and upgrades but the design doesn’t seem to have changed.

A live photo that surfaced last week shows the Mi Band 6 has a practically identical design to its predecessor. The image also showed a magnetic charging cable just like that of the Mi Band 5.

Abi Go, Xiaomi’s Head of Product Marketing and Global Spokesperson also shared a video teasing the launch of the Mi Band 6.

One of the features the Mi Band 6 is expected to have is support for blood oxygen level detection (SpO2 monitoring). It came as a surprise when the Mi Band 5 was announced last year and it lacked this feature. It has also been reported that it may feature a bigger display, up to 30 sports modes, and should be available in standard and NFC variants.

The Mi Band 6 should launch outside China as the Mi Smart Band 6.

Xiaomi is expected to launch the Mi Smart Band 6 very soon. It has already got certified in India, Indonesia and reports say that it is going to have a larger screen and improved activity tracking. Today, a supposed live image of the fitness tracker has appeared online.

The live image of the Mi Smart Band 6 has been found on the EU Declaration of Conformity page. It is seemingly filed by the partner Huami with which Xiaomi is said to work at least for another three years. Specifically, the image appears under the name Mi Smart Band 6 and model number XMSH15HM.

If you recall, we have already seen this model number in BIS, and Indonesia Telecom listings before. Talking about the image(above), which shows the side look of the device, we see a similar strap and display design like the Mi Smart Band 5. There is a charging cable beside confirming the presence of magnetic charging.

While we can’t be sure that the Mi Smart Band 6 is a ditto of the predecessor, the design of other straps and the pill-shaped display(from the sides) certainly hints at similarities. It is possible that the fitness tracker might retain the design elements from Mi Smart Band 5 whilst sporting a larger display.

The Mi Band 6/Mi Smart Band 6 first appeared on the internet where its existence got leaked on the Zepp app code. This report said that it will have support for Blood Oxygen monitoring(SpO2 sensor), and come with Alexa assistant built-in.

Some other rumors on the specs of the Mi Smart Band 6 include NFC, and non-NFC variants for different markets, built-in GPS, Heart rate Monitoring(PPG), Sleep tracking, 30 activity tracking modes including  Zumba, cricket, basketball, and kickboxing.

Xiaomi is gearing up to launch the most expected Redmi Note 10 series in India next month. The company could also launch the successor of Mi Smart Band 5 soon as the Mi Band 6 gets Indonesia Telecom and India’s BIS certifications.

As noted by Mukul Sharma, a Xiaomi device with model number XMSH15HM appears on Indonesia Telecom and India’s BIS listing. Among these, the former gives away the name of the product as ‘Smart Band 6’.

If you recall, Xiaomi launched the predecessor ‘Mi Band 5’ in China but brought it to markets like India as ‘Mi Smart Band 5‘. Going by this, the ‘Mi Smart Band 6‘ could launch as the Mi Band 6 in China. Either way, Xiaomi hasn’t confirmed anything yet.

Regarding the specs, the Mi Band 6 with the same model number XMSH15HM allegedly got leaked on the Zepp app code. It revealed that the fitness tracker will come with SpO2(Blood Oxygen Monitoring), and Alexa assistant Support.

It is also expected to feature a bigger display than the 1.1-inch screen on the predecessor. Just like previous versions, it could get an NFC, and non-NFC variants for different markets, built-in GPS(rumored), Heart rate Monitoring(PPG), Sleep tracking, and more.

Other possible specs include 30 activity modes(Sport Modes) including  Zumba, cricket, basketball, and kickboxing. Xiaomi launched the Mi Band 5 back in September 2020 in India for a price of ₹2,499.

While there is no info on the color variants and pricing, we can expect Xiaomi to price the successor around the same price tag(if not higher) as before. Let’s wait for more details in the coming days.

This is 2021 and going by Xiaomi‘s release cycle for the Mi Band series, the Band 6 is expected to make its debut sometime this year. There is no indication as to when that will happen but the Mi Band 6 has started to feature in leaks.

A Geekdoing forum user MagicalUnicorn has discovered several details on the Zepp app said to be for the Mi Band 6. The Zepp app is Huami’s app for the Amazfit and Zepp smartwatch/fitness band lineup. As you may already know, the Mi Band lineup is manufactured by Huami. The company last year launched the Amazfit Band 5, an Mi Band 5 with some upgrades.

The Mi band 6 is said to bear the codename “Pangu” and will not only come with the same useful features as its predecessor, but it will also bring on board several new features as well as visual improvements.

The device comes with the model numbers XMSH16HM and may likely have NFC and non-NFC versions for the Chinese and global markets. The Zepp app source code revealed data shows that the Mi Band 6 will come with support for Alexa and a SpO2 sensor for blood oxygen measurement.

In addition, the Mi Band 6 is also expected to come with built-in GPS but there are conflicting commands found in the firmware code which disputes this. The leaked watch faces for the Band 6 have a higher resolution than those stored in the Mi Band 5, further suggesting that the fitness band may feature a larger display than the 1.1-inch screen found on the Mi Band 5.

Further, the leaker also discovered that there may be up to 30 activity modes on Band 6 as against 11 models on the Mi Band 5. Some of the new additions include dance, Zumba, cricket, basketball, and kickboxing.

However, we must point out that these features may actually be for the Amazfit Band 6 since the Zepp app is for Amazfit/Zepp products. We already know the Amazfit Band 6 exists as early as August 2020 and that it will have some of the new features spotted on the code such as SpO2 and Alexa support. However, the Mi Band 6 may still share similar features with the Amazfit branded version.

It may still be too early to conclude as we are still several months away from the launch. The Mi Band 5 was launched in June 2020 and this year’s version may also come around that same period.
