Alongside the new smartphones, Xiaomi announced a selection of other products for the local market. Among these are the Watch S5, Smart Band 10 Pro, and the Buds 6. If any of these names sound familiar to you, that’s because these devices have previously debuted on the brand’s home turf.
Watch S5
Available in a single 46mm size, the smartwatch packs advanced sports and health monitoring into a slim design measuring 10.99mm. The 46g wearable sports a 1.48-inch AMOLED display with a 480 x 480 pixel resolution and a peak brightness of 2,500 nits. Furthermore, the watch gets a 5 ATM water resistance rating.
Internally, Xiaomi has equipped the device with an 815mAh battery. According to the brand, this cell offers up to 21 days of light use. Aside from that, the watch packs an upgraded 4 LED + 4 PD heart rate sensor, promising more accurate measurements. For sleep tracking, the device offers HRV monitoring, as well as new weekly and monthly reports for more comprehensive insights.
Meanwhile, an improved dual-band, five-system GNSS assures precise location tracking during outdoor activities. Speaking of which, the watch supports over 150 sports modes and introduces a Passion Mode. This feature detects cheering gestures and converts them into data like heart rate, calories burned, and cheer counts.
Other highlights include seamless integration with smartphones, enabling functions like remote photo capture, earphone controls, among other things. The device also integrates with Xiaomi Home.

The TWS earbuds sport a lightweight build and an ergonomic semi-in-ear design that reduces pressure and discomfort. Furthermore, each bud weighs approximately 4.4g and packs an 11mm triple-magnet dynamic driver with a 24k gold-plated diaphragm. This setup promises impactful bass, as well as crisp and clear highs.
Further enhancing the audio experience is the master-tuning by the Harman Golden Ear Team, which introduces Harman Master Mode and Harman AudioEFX. Meanwhile, Qualcomm aptX Lossless technology offers high-resolution, lossless audio. For an immersive listening experience, the audio accessory comes with head-tracking features. Naturally, you get ANC, which is handled by a system of three mics and AI processing.
