Redmi has been launching a slightly cheaper product of every major product that Xiaomi launches. So far, Redmi has done the same with the laptops and Smart TVs and smartwatches could be next.

The Xiaomi Mi Watch comes with a 1.78-inch AMOLED display with 44mm frame and is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 3100 4G chipset. It is fuelled by a 510mAh battery which the company claims can offer up to 36 hours or two days of battery life on a single charge.
