Redmi fans won’t have to wait much longer. The brand’s next smartwatch after their Watch 5 model a few months ago —Redmi Watch Move—is officially dropping on April 21. The announcement came straight from Redmi India’s social post on X, setting off buzz among wearable tech enthusiasts.
What’s catching everyone’s eye? An AMOLED display. It’s a bold shift, offering punchier colors, deeper blacks, and the kind of sharpness that makes older models look dated. From the teaser, it’s clear the design leans sporty. A standout crown on the right suggests more hands-on control, which is a nice touch for users who value both form and function.
Refined Looks, Practical Features
In its own words, Redmi India calls the watch “long-awaited and finally here,” tapping into months of anticipation. At first glance, it has the polish of a premium watch, but it’s built for everyday wear. The frame is slim. The display stretches edge to edge, and there’s a familiar minimalism that feels very Redmi.
Style-wise, it won’t be a one-size-fits-all deal. Early marketing leaks point to four colorways:
- Classic Black
- Clean White
- Midnight Blue
- Elegant Rose Gold
It’s a smart move. These shades cover everything from neutral and sleek to soft and sophisticated, giving the watch broad appeal.
Battery Life That Doesn’t Quit
Here’s something that might win over skeptics: a claimed 14-day battery life on a single charge. That’s two full weeks without reaching for the charger—a feature that could be a dealbreaker (or maker) in this segment. Redmi seems to be zeroing in on real-life convenience, not just specs on paper.
Smarter Health Tracking, New Software
Redmi isn’t just slapping a fresh screen on an old device. According to leaks, the Watch Move steps up its fitness tracking game. Lab tests by Xiaomi reportedly show 98.5% tracking accuracy, signaling improvements under the hood in health monitoring.
What’s more intriguing is what’s running the show. This will be one of the first smartwatches to ship with Xiaomi’s new HyperOS, a system previously reserved for its smartphones and tablets. Expanding HyperOS into wearables could mean better integration, smoother performance, and more cross-device features.
Price and Market Strategy
Redmi hasn’t confirmed the price yet, but based on the brand’s track record, we can expect it to sit comfortably in the affordable range. And with premium specs like AMOLED, extended battery life, and a fresh OS, it’s likely to shake up the budget smartwatch scene.
The Redmi Watch Move hits the Indian market on April 21. Whether you’re in it for the fitness features, battery life, or just a good-looking watch that won’t break the bank, this one’s shaping up to be worth a look.
