Xiaomi Korea announced the launch of the Redmi Watch 6, a smartwatch featuring a large display and a battery life of up to 24 days.

The new product is equipped with a 52.58mm (2.07-inch) AMOLED display and a 550mAh battery. It is compatible with both Apple iPhones and Android smartphones.

The Redmi Watch 6 has a slimmer profile at 9.9mm thick and features a 2mm ultra-slim symmetrical bezel, achieving an 82% screen-to-body ratio.

It also includes a color Always-On Display (AOD) feature, allowing users to view the time and key information without any interaction, even when the screen is off. The watch is built with a high-strength aluminum alloy frame, enhancing its durability against external shocks and deformation.

The battery life can last up to 24 days. With the 550mAh battery, it can operate for up to 24 days under light usage and up to 12 days in typical usage conditions. In high-intensity usage scenarios, such as active exercise and health monitoring, it can last up to 7 days, reducing the need for frequent charging during long trips or outdoor activities.

The exercise tracking features have also been improved. The Redmi Watch 6 supports a dual L1 GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System). The dual L1 antennas automatically select the strongest signal based on the user's wrist position, providing stable location information even while moving. Users can record their routes and exercise data outdoors without a smartphone.

The watch will be available in three colors: Obsidian Black, Silver Gray, and Glacier Blue. Xiaomi Korea has begun pre-orders today and will gradually launch official sales through its online and offline stores and major online distribution channels.

Promotions will be available for early buyers across various distribution channels. During the pre-order period, which runs until July 12, some channels will offer discounts. From July 13 to 31, the first sales period will include promotions such as free Redmi Buds 6 Play for customers who make a purchase.

A Xiaomi Korea representative stated, "As interest in active lifestyles, including running and health management, continues to grow in South Korea, the number of consumers using smartwatches in their daily lives is steadily increasing. The Redmi Watch 6, with its wide and clear display, a battery lasting up to 24 days, and enhanced health and exercise monitoring features, is designed for effortless use in both exercise and daily life."
