Xiaomi Smart Band 10 launches globally as new affordable fitness tracker

Xiaomi has recently made the Smart Band 10 available to the Chinese market, and now, the affordable fitness tracker has made its global debut. As recent leaks have suggested, the special Ceramic Edition of the wearable is also making its way to the international market, which is a first, as this version of the predecessors remained exclusive to China.

Compared to the last-gen model, the Smart Band 10 comes with a larger display, sized 1.72 inches. The predecessor, in comparison, features a 1.62-inch screen. Besides being larger, the AMOLED panel on the latest model also has a higher brightness rating, with a peak brightness rating of 1,500 nits.

While the screen has seen an upgrade, the rated battery life remains the same as the predecessor (available on Amazon). To be specific, the Smart Band 10 is rated for up to 21 days of runtime. However, Xiaomi highlights that sleep monitoring has seen an upgrade, and the new wearable comes with a personalized sleep guidance feature to enhance users' sleeping habits.

The Smart Band 10 can measure other health metrics as well. Xiaomi claims that the new wearable can offer 24/7 accurate heart rate and SpO2 monitoring. It can also measure the stress level.

When it comes to fitness tracking, the Xiaomi Band 10 has over 150 sports modes, including an advanced swimming mode, which can offer real-time heart rate monitoring during sessions.

Other highlights of the fitness tracker include 5 ATM water resistance, over 200 watch faces, and slim 2 mm symmetrical bezels. The launch price of the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 in the EU is €49.99, while the Ceramic Edition goes for €59.99. Unlike the Chinese variant, it seems that the global market won't get an NFC version.
