In a crowded wearable market, Xiaomi’s new Smart Band 10 strikes a refreshing balance between refined aesthetics and cutting-edge fitness technology. Targeted at users who want both style and substance, the band promises an experience that feels as comfortable in the boardroom as it does in the gym.

Design and Display: A Step Up in Style

The Smart Band 10 sports a 1.72-inch AMOLED display with ultra-thin 2.0 mm symmetrical bezels, delivering a 73% screen-to-body ratio, up from 66% in its predecessor. The screen’s 1,500-nit brightness and 60 Hz refresh rate make it clear and fluid even in bright outdoor light.

Xiaomi offers two finishes: a standard high-gloss aluminium alloy frame with PVD coating and a “glass crystal bracelet” edition featuring sparkling Preciosa crystals for those who prefer a jewellery-like look.

Weighing just 15.95 g (without strap) and measuring 10.95 mm in thickness, the band is light enough for day-long wear. It supports a wide range of quick-release straps in TPU, silicone, fluoro-rubber, leather, and even silk, letting users tailor their look for exercise or evening wear.

Fitness and Health: Smarter by Design

The band supports over 150 sport modes, including an improved swimming mode with real-time underwater heart-rate monitoring and enhanced lap counting that Xiaomi claims is 96% accurate.

Its nine-axis motion sensor and refined algorithms promise more precise tracking for running, cycling, and gym activities. It also offers on-wrist running courses with real-time pacing feedback, plus a heart-rate broadcast feature that can stream live data to compatible cycling computers or other Bluetooth-enabled devices.

Beyond exercise, the Smart Band 10 offers comprehensive all-day health monitoring: continuous heart-rate and SpO₂ tracking, stress measurement, women’s health cycle tracking, and a Vitality Score that reflects seven-day activity levels. A new sleep intelligence system provides weekly reports and even 21-day plans for better rest.

Battery and Everyday Experience

Battery performance is a key selling point. Xiaomi claims up to 21 days in typical use, 9 days with Always-On Display, and around 8 days under heavy use. These figures are based on controlled lab conditions, so real-world life may vary.

The device also improves the user experience with a linear vibration motor for sharper haptic feedback, customizable vibration patterns, and a smooth 60 Hz UI. The Mi Fitness app unlocks a library of watch faces and offers guided relaxation and even mini-games.

Integration with Xiaomi’s ecosystem enables the band to act as a Smart Hub, letting users control other Xiaomi devices—such as phones, earbuds and home appliances—directly from their wrist.

The Xiaomi Smart Band 10 is not merely an incremental update; it’s a thoughtfully designed wearable that combines elegant looks with robust performance. For consumers who want a smart band that transitions easily from daily workouts to social events without sacrificing features or comfort, it stands as one of the strongest contenders in its category.
