Redmi Watch is official. Announced alongside Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 9 5G series on Thursday in China, the first smartwatch from the Redmi brand carries a design similar to Mi Watch but is not exactly the same. At this point, the Redmi Watch will only be released in China; however, it should reach India and other markets over the coming months. The most exciting thing about the new Redmi smartwatch is its pricing.

Redmi Watch price

It carries a price tag of just CNY 299 that translates to roughly Rs. 3,400, pretty sweet for a smartwatch. The Redmi Watch will go on sale in China beginning December 1, but the pre-orders are open right now. There is no word on the India launch date at this point. The smartwatch is being offered in three colour options – Elegant Black, Ink Blue, and Ivory – and with five colour options for straps.

Xiaomi has included a 230mAh battery in the Redmi Watch that it says can last up to 7 days on moderate usage and up to 12 days on the power saving mode.
