The post Xiaomi Watch 2 Renders, Specifications Surface In A New Leak appeared first on Gizmochina.

A new Xiaomi smartwatch has been spotted online. The wearable officially goes by Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro.

This is the first time we are hearing the name. But unfortunately, the listing only reveals a couple of things.

Let’s go through everything that’s known about this upcoming product.

As per Xiaomiui, the forthcoming Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro with model number M2233W1 has been listed in the IMEI database. This means it has support for cellular connectivity (eSIM).

Thus, consumers will be able to use the smartwatch even without a smartphone. It should allow data connection and calls.

Looking up the model number, we found that the wearable was already spotted earlier this year by GoAndroid. Looks like it will be accompanied by two more smartwatches with model numbers M2234W1 and M2235W1.

Since their model numbers only differ by a single digit, they are most likely part of the same lineup. They could be collectively called Xiaomi Watch 2 series.

Sadly, we don’t have details on the specs of these smartwatches. However, going by a report from March, these wearables could boot Wear OS.

For the unaware, these won’t be the first Wear OS smartwatches from Xiaomi. Because the company’s first-ever smartwatch (Mi Watch) from November 2019 actually used Google’s platform.

These upcoming wearables will probably be positioned as the successors of the Mi Watch. Hence, the use of the marketing name ‘Xiaomi Watch 2.’
