20. October 2020 3 min read 2 comments

Xiaomi has popular fitness bands in its portfolio, but also smartwatches—whether under its own brand or within one of its ecosystems. Meet the full new addition, Xiaomi Mi Watch Color Sports Edition – sport-focused smartwatches that can also measure the oxygen content in your blood (SpO2).

Sports-focused

As the official name already suggests, these smartwatches are primarily made for active people who exercise regularly. They can recognize up to 117 different activities. For comparison, the standard version supports only 10 sports modes.

Besides tracking your sports activity, the watch also measures the amount of oxygen in your blood, the so-called SpO2. More and more watches are getting this highly requested feature.

But that’s not all. Xiaomi added support for FIRSTBEAT technology to the watch, which can measure up to 30 parameters such as stress level, heart rate, energy, or sleep monitoring.

Basic technical specifications

The dial of the Xiaomi Mi Watch Color Sports Edition has a diameter of 45.9 mm, and the overall watch dimensions are 45.9 x 53.35 x 11.8 mm. The watch is water-resistant up to 50 m (5 ATM) and can be used at an outdoor temperature of -10 to 45 °C. So you can use it in any weather.

The watch features a beautiful AMOLED display with a diagonal of 1.39″ and a resolution of 454 x 454 px. Around the display, there is a thin stainless steel frame that protects the screen from impacts and damage.

As for connectivity, you’ll find NFC support for watch payments (unfortunately, only in China) as well as GPS and GLONASS for location tracking. The watches can be paired with your smartphone via Bluetooth 5.0 BLE, which should help optimize power consumption.

You’ll find more than 120 different watch face designs and 6 official color straps. They can be changed very easily and quickly. The blue, black, olive green, yellow, red, and beige straps are available.

Wireless charging is used with a charging base.
