During its MWC press event, Xiaomi unveiled a trio of new wearables. These new smartwatches start from €69 for the Smart Band 8 Pro and go up to €199 for the most comprehensive, the Watch 2 running Google's Wear OS.
The name may not suggest it, but the simplest of the trio of smartwatches announced is the Xiaomi Smart Band 8 Pro. This rectangular-shaped smartwatch is compatible with Xiaomi's Mi Fitness app.

Gorilla Glass protects the screen, which measures 1.74 inches from corner to corner, refreshes images 60x per second, and is 600 nits bright.
There are bands made of TPU, leather, fabric, and Milanese, and the watch is 5ATM waterproof. According to Xiaomi, the battery lasts 14 days and costs a mere 69 euros. The device is an inexpensive alternative to a fitness tracker because it recognizes and can track as many as 150 sports.
Xiaomi Watch S3
For 149 euros, you can also get the Xiaomi Watch S3. This watch has a round display. The user can replace the bezel around the screen. The watch face even adapts to this. Charging is only necessary after 15 days, as that is how long the battery lasts.
The Watch S3 features a 1.43-inch AMOLED screen and allows you to make phone calls via Bluetooth. The watch has sensors to measure heart rate, sleep, and Sp02.
Xiaomi Watch 2
The Xiaomi Watch 2 is the only smartwatch released by Xiaomi running Google's Wear OS. This gives you access to many apps. The Watch 2 is powered by a 4nm Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1 processor and an even more accurate heart rate sensor.
The battery lasts 65 hours on one charge. Prices start from 199 euros, although there seems to be a lower price in the early stages. All watches are available immediately at the time of announcement.
