Xiaomi has officially unveiled the Redmi Watch 6, featuring a redesigned aesthetic and an upgraded AMOLED display, slated for release in China on October 23, 2025.
The latest iteration of the budget-friendly smartwatch line introduces a new button positioned below the crown on the right side, mirroring the design of recent Apple Watch models. Xiaomi confirmed the Watch 6 will sport a 2.07-inch AMOLED display, consistent with its predecessor, currently available for around $113 on Amazon. The device will be offered in three color options: Bright Moon Silver, Elegant Black, and Mist Blue, with a high-strength aluminum mid-frame designed for durability.
Beyond the design changes, Xiaomi highlights a slim profile and minimal 2mm bezels surrounding the screen.
