In the visual department, the Redmi Watch will come with a 1.4-inch square TFT display with 480 nits brightness and 323ppi pixel density - which is good for a smartwatch.

Redmi Watch features

The biggest and the most important feature of the Redmi Watch is the built-in GPS which allows you to track, walk, run without having to carry your phone along. With the help of GPS + GLONASS combo and multiple sensors, the watch can track your speed, distance and calories burnt. In terms of sensors, the Redmi Watch will come with a 3-axis accelerometer, gyroscope, L-Sensor, Compass, and barometer.

The Redmi Watch also comes with a 24x7 PPG heart rate monitor and notify you when your heart rate goes above normal levels. It can also save your resting heart rate data for 30 days to help monitor long-term heart rate changes. You also get a sleep tracker with complete sleep data such as deep sleep, light sleep, and sleep duration.

The Redmi Watch notably missed out on a SpO2 monitor. The company said that they did not add the sensor as the results were not accurate. Redmi didn't want to add the Sp02 monitor just for the sake of having it. Since the reading was not accurate, they did not add this feature.

In terms of tracking, the Redmi Watch can track 11 sports modes including Trail running, hiking, walking, indoor cycling, pool swimming, freestyle, cricket, open water swimming, treadmill, outdoor cycling, and outdoor running. The watch records your daily heart rate, exercise, and sleeping data, making sure that you are well informed of your health condition.

Other features include guided breathing exercises for 1 to 5 minutes. Some of the smart features include call alerts, texts, app notifications, music control, ideal alert, find my phone, weather report, alarm, stopwatch, flashlight, and timer. The companion Xiaomi Wear app will offer in-depth information on all the aforementioned modes.
