Xiaomi just dropped a new smartwatch to celebrate its 15th anniversary. The Watch S4 ’15th Anniversary Edition’ is packed with a custom XRING T1 chip, which promises faster performance and better power savings.
This chip has a 500 MHz CPU, which Xiaomi says makes apps launch 13% faster and saves energy by 66%. It also has a 4G LTE modem designed by Xiaomi, using 35% less power than the standard Watch S4. This means you can use it heavily for up to 4 days, or up to 15 days if you turn on the Raise-to-Wake feature.
Key Features
The Watch S4 has a 1.43-inch AMOLED screen with a 60 Hz refresh rate and 2,200 Nit brightness. It’s protected by Dragon Crystal Glass and has a durable aluminum alloy body. The watch is waterproof up to 50 meters and comes with a variety of straps, including fluoro rubber and nylon.
Health and Fitness
The watch can track over 150 sports modes, detect exercise automatically, and even offer personalized workout suggestions. It also monitors heart rate, blood oxygen levels, and sleep quality. You can even measure blood pressure using the Xiaomi Health Research app.
Connectivity
The Watch S4 supports eSIM, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and GPS. It can also be used as a walkie-talkie over Bluetooth and cellular networks.
The watch is available in China for 1,299 yuan, or about $190, in two colors: Black and Green Flame.
