The wearable has now appeared on the Bluetooth certification with the model number HMSH01GE. For those who’re unaware, the same model number first surfaced on the BIS certification. As per the listing, the band will come with the latest Bluetooth 5.0 version. Since it has already been launched in China, we know everything about the product.

To recall, Xiaomi Redmi Band is equipped with a 1.08-inch colored display. It has a built-in heart rate sensor along with the ability to monitor various activities. The activities include sleep, running, walking, reminder and a lot more. In terms of battery, we’re looking at a solid 14-day battery life on a single charge. Instead of the dedicated cable, the wearable has a charger onboard that plugs into the USB-A port.

With the Redmi Band, the company will directly compete with the likes of the Realme Band and Honor Band.
