Alongside the Xiaomi 17T series, the company also introduced three new wearables in Malaysia: Xiaomi Watch S5 46mm, Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro smartwatch, and Xiaomi Buds 6 wireless earbuds. The company also unveiled the new “Violet Collection” lineup as a new color option available for the Xiaomi 17T and Buds 6.
Xiaomi Watch S5 46mm
The Xiaomi Watch S5 46mm features a stainless steel case at 10.99mm thickness and 46g weight, with optional stainless steel, ceramic, and forged carbon bezel variants, whereas strap options include genuine leather materials alongside standard variants. The 1.48-inch AMOLED display reaches 2,500nits peak brightness with a 40% narrower bezel than its predecessor, and its 815mAh battery provides up to 21 days of battery life under light use.
Health and sports tracking on the Watch S5 46mm includes a 4 LED + 4 PD heart rate sensor with 98.4% accuracy, over 150 sports modes, dual-band five-system GNSS, and sleep HRV tracking. There’s also the new “Passion Mode” which detects cheering gestures and records associated biometric data, such as heart rate, calories, cheer count. Meanwhile, sleep features now include weekly and monthly reports.
Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro
The Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro features a bigger 1.74-inch AMOLED display at up to 2,000nits brightness, a 9.7mm profile, and a weight of 21.6g (excluding the Ceramic edition). The onboard 350mAh battery delivers up to 21 days of battery life under light use; when paired with a Xiaomi smartphone, the band supports notification sync and simultaneous connections with an iPhone as well – if you happens to own smartphones from both brands for whatever reason, that is.
Similar to the Watch S5, heart rate sensor accuracy is rated at 98.2% via an upgraded PPG module, and over 150 sports modes are supported, including track mode and an enhanced cycling mode. Sleep tracking also includes HRV monitoring, sleep efficiency metrics, trend reports, and an updated sleep algorithm. Color-wise, it is available in Midnight Black, Glacier Silver, and Lavender Pink.
Xiaomi Buds 6
Finally, the Xiaomi Buds 6 are semi-in-ear earbuds (meaning those without silicone tips) that feature an 11mm triple-magnet dynamic driver with a 24k gold-plated diaphragm with a claimed 30% improvement in treble sensitivity. Audio tuning is handled by the Harman Golden Ear Team, with Qualcomm aptX Lossless support for high-resolution wireless audio. The earbuds is also a first from Xiaomi to support both Apple Find My and Google Find Hub protocols.
For noise cancellation, the earbuds’ ANC is available in Balanced and Deep modes: as the names imply, you can pick a less aggressive option if Deep mode is suppressing too much outside noise for your liking. A three-microphone AI noise reduction system is claimed to suppress up to 95dB of background noise and maintains voice clarity in wind speeds up to 12m/s. The charging case is available in Graphite Black, Pearl White, Titan Gray, and Nebula Purple color options.
Pricing And Availability
All three products are available at Xiaomi stores nationwide, on mi.com, and through official Xiaomi stores on Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop. Pricing are as follows: the Xiaomi Watch S5 46mm in Black or Silver is priced at RM799 (with Ceramic Blue and Jungle Green variants at RM899), while the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro is priced at RM399, and the Xiaomi Buds 6 is priced at RM499.
Pokdepinion: Variable ANC should be standard in wireless earbuds these days – I’m quite surprised most implementations still rely on a simple on/off switch.
