Xiaomi has shared new details about its next smartwatch before its full May launch. Featuring up to 21 days of battery life, the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro also contains various health-focused upgrades like refined heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring when sleeping and a new dual-light PPD sensor.

Xiaomi finally confirmed the existence of the Smart Band 10 Pro earlier this week in China. Presented alongside the Xiaomi 17 Max, the Smart Band 10 Pro had quite a lot in common with the older Smart Band 9 Pro at first glance (curr. $89 on Amazon).

To that end, Xiaomi has confirmed that the Smart Band 10 Pro should deliver up to 21 days of battery life, too. While this is unchanged from the Smart Band 9 Pro, Xiaomi has added a new dual-light PPD sensor for its tenth-generation model. Allegedly, this change allows the Smart Band 10 Pro to monitor heart rates with 98.2% accuracy.

Moreover, the new smartwatch boasts refined heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring when sleeping. Similarly, Xiaomi states that the Smart Band 10 Pro leverages its Sleep Algorithm 2.0 for sleep monitoring improvements, too. The new fitness tracker also features a new cycling exercise mode and superior Xiaomi vehicle integrations compared to older Smart Band wearables.

A release date remains unknown for now. However, Xiaomi continues to claim that the Smart Band 10 Pro will arrive before the end of May in some capacity. Based on Xiaomi's social media posts, this launch will likely only apply in China, though. A global release should occur later in 2026, though.
