Xiaomi is preparing to launch the Smart Band 11, a move that matters to buyers because the company is expanding the lineup with new material options and model variants. Two Bluetooth band models, M2616B1 and M2617B1, received radio approval from China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in June. This regulatory step signals that hardware is finalized and mass production is likely underway.
New All-Metal and Ceramic variants join standard and NFC options
The Xiaomi Health Research App lists the upcoming series as containing four distinct models. These variants include a standard edition, an NFC version, a Ceramic option, and a new All-Metal edition. We have been tracking Xiaomi Smart Band 11 closely — see our earlier coverage on Xiaomi Smart Band 11 Active Leaks.
Both approved models feature a 233mAh battery. That is the same battery capacity used in the previous generation, so users should not expect a significant boost in runtime. The display is projected to remain a 1.72-inch AMOLED panel. This screen size matches the Xiaomi Smart Band 10, which launched in June last year.
The previous generation Band 10 offered up to 1,500 nits of brightness and a 60Hz refresh rate. Xiaomi has not revealed the pricing or launch date for the Band 11 series yet. Buyers will need to wait for official confirmation before making any purchasing decisions.
The Smart Band 11 series appears to focus on aesthetic variety rather than internal hardware upgrades. The confirmed battery capacity and display dimensions suggest a refinement of the existing design. We will update this story once Xiaomi provides official pricing and availability details.
