Redmi Watch and Mi Watch Lite receive Bluetooth SIG certification


Redmi Watch

Xiaomi held a big event in China today where the company unveiled the highly anticipated Redmi Note 9 series composed of a Redmi Note 9 5G, Note 9 Pro 5G, and Note 9 4G. Alongside the new smartphones, the company surprised us with a Redmi Watch. The device has just been released in China, but we don’t think it will remain exclusive for a long time. The device passed on Bluetooth SIG alongside the Mi Watch Lite. This suggests that a global launch is closer than we imagined.

The tip comes straight from Mukul Sharma a reliable tipster. The listing on the Bluetooth SIG databases reveals two models. One is the REDMIWT01 and the other is the REDMIT02. Both products are similar and have been applied by Xiaomi Inc. The description of both the models reveals they are smartwatches. Moreover, the listing reveals Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity which certainly is a plus. Unfortunately, Bluetooth SIG is all about codenames and Bluetooth availability. The Redmi Watch specs aren’t a big mystery any more thanks to the Chinese launch. The Mi Watch Lite may be a similar product or even a rebranded Redmi Watch for distinct markets.
