Xiaomi Unveils Smart Band 11 With Brighter Screen and 21‑Day Battery

A 1.72‑inch 2,000‑nit AMOLED and multi‑week endurance aim to keep Xiaomi competitive in the budget fitness‑tracker market.

Overview

  • Xiaomi opened pre‑orders in China and set a domestic debut for Sept. 7, and a separate Smart Band 11 Active model is already on sale in select international markets.
  • The Smart Band 11 has a 1.72‑inch AMOLED display with 2mm bezels and a claimed 2,000‑nit peak brightness plus up to 21 days of battery life on light use.
  • Health and fitness features include heart‑rate monitoring, SpO2, sleep tracking with HRV and AI sleep insights, stress tracking, and more than 150 sports modes with 5ATM water resistance.
  • Xiaomi is offering multiple finishes and price tiers in China: a standard model at CNY 289, an NFC model at CNY 339, and Ceramic and All‑Metal editions at CNY 399, while the Active SKU uses a 1.47‑inch TFT, a TPU strap, and has been listed at about AUD 59.50 in some regions.
  • The launch keeps Xiaomi’s focus on low‑cost, long‑lasting trackers that sit below full smartwatches, but wider global availability for all Smart Band 11 variants and independent verification of battery and sensor performance remain pending.
