Xiaomi debuted a smartwatch based on Google’s Wear OS earlier this year in China, but its square, Apple Watch-looking design may not be for everyone. Now, Xiaomi is testing another new smartwatch with the “Mi Watch Color” which has a more traditional round design.
Xiaomi launched its first Wear OS smartwatch earlier this year and it’s basically an Apple Watch clone running a skinned Wear OS. Now, the Xiaomi Mi Watch is adding support for iPhones with an update.
The Xiaomi Mi Watch has now been officially unveiled, with the Wear OS-powered smartwatch bearing a striking resemblance to the Apple Watch.
We’ve been learning about Xiaomi’s Mi Watch over the past few days but the teasers aren’t stopping. Today, Xiaomi has posted another Mi Watch teaser that shows off the UI for the first time as well as confirming a key spec.
There’s been a lot of news in the Wear OS world this week from Alphabet possibly buying Fitbit to a new Moto 360 and even a new chipset too. Now, we’re getting a better look at Xiaomi’s upcoming Mi Watch which is expected to run on Wear OS including a first look at its design.
It’s been a while since Google’s Wear OS platform picked up some new brands, but it seems Xiaomi is getting ready to throw its hat in the ring. Now, a new teaser for Xiaomi’s upcoming smartwatch reveals two key details about the product.
According to the Wear OS companion app for Android, Xiaomi might be working on a smartwatch powered by Google’s wearable platform. Wear OS 2.28 today features a string that references a “Mi Wear” companion app.
