Red Magic announced its first smartwatch earlier this year when it launched the Red Magic 6 smartphones. Now, it has been disclosed that it will launch another one when it unveils the Red Magic 6S Pro. The new smartwatch will arrive as the Red Magic Watch Vitality Edition (or Lite/Youth) and it will be smaller and cheaper than the Red Magic Watch.

An official poster confirming the arrival of the smartwatch shows it will be available in two colors – black and silver – with matching silicone straps. It will have a metal case and two buttons.

The manufacturer has made some changes to the design such as going for a smaller 1.19-inch screen compared to the 1.39-inch screen of the Red Magic Watch. Thankfully, the screen is still AMOLED and there is support for AOD.

The Red Magic Watch Vitality Edition is also lighter at 23 grams as compared to its sibling which weighs 30 grams. Red Magic says the smartwatch will also have support for multiple sports modes and be able to measure multiple health metrics.

While Red Magic is keeping mute about the price, the Chinese Weibo account, WHYLAB, has revealed that the smartwatch is expected to have a launch price of ¥499 (~$77). For comparison, the Red Magic Watch launched in March for ¥999 (~$93).

The new smartwatch will be announced alongside the Red Magic 6S Pro whose launch is scheduled for tomorrow at 3 PM (China Time).

Earlier today (27th May 2021), RedMagic 6R was launched at a press conference in China. During this event, the company also unveiled the Red Magic Watch Stainless Steel Edition for 599 Yuan (roughly 94 US Dollars).

This version is a new variant of the smartwatch that the company had previously launched. The device is equipped with a new stainless steel strap that also supports adjustable elasticity. This would add a more premium texture to the wearable. The smartwatch sports a 1.39 inch AMOLED display that has a 454ppi pixel density. Similar to most smartwatches, the wearable offers heart rate monitoring, and even blood oxygen detection as well.

Furthermore, the new Watch variant also features in built GPS function that can track the user running in real time and also offer other activity tracking modes. Under the hood, the watch is equipped with a Sony CXD5605 low powered chip that is also compatible with other global positioning systems as well. It supports up to 16 sports modes and even offers 5ATM water resistance.

While most of the specifications of this device are similar to the base variant, the company has launched the new variant with improved battery life. This bumps the battery life from 15 days to 20 days in the new version and will also arrive with the latest software. The smartwatch is priced at 599 Yuan, which costs around the same as the base variant.

Last month, Nubia’s RedMagic announced its first smartwatch. The smartwatch which is sold as the RedMagic Watch and is exclusive to China, for now, has begun receiving an update that brings a dark mode to one of its watch faces.

According to a Weibo post by the official RedMagic account, the latest update to the RedMagic Sports app, the smartwatch’s companion app, lets you choose a particular watch face (Astronaut) that automatically switches from a white background (light mode) to a black background (dark mode) once it is 6 PM.
