Xiaomi Redmi Watch 4: Smartwatch with GNSS and metal housing to be launched globally soon, according to certification

The Redmi Watch 4 is likely to be launched around the globe very soon. The smartwatch, which has already been officially presented, has not yet been announced by Xiaomi for launch, but has already been spotted at the Bluetooth SIG. Since the smartwatch features wireless technologies, such certification is also necessary. Although certifications are never a means to an end, they are very strong sign of an impending international release. However, there is currently no information on an exact release date. The watch was listed by the Bluetooth SIG on December 8.

The Redmi Watch 4 is a smartwatch with an aluminum casing and a stainless steel crown. The display measures 1.97 inches diagonally and has a resolution of 390 x 450. Unsurprisingly, the screen is touch-sensitive. The brightness is specified as up to 600 cd/m². It is equipped with the sensors expected of modern smartwatches: An acceleration sensor and a gyroscope are installed, while the optical sensors can measure both heart rate and oxygen saturation. A magnetometer and an ambient light sensor for adjusting the screen brightness are also on board.

GPS, Beidou, Glonass, Galileo and QZSS are supported. NFC and Bluetooth 5.3 are also not lacking. The 470 mAh battery can be fully charged in just 85 minutes. In China, the Redmi Watch 4 is already available for a price equivalent to around $65. The Redmi Watch 3 is currently on offer at Amazon for just under $110.
