Xiaomi could be working on a successor to the Smart Band 8 series. The wearable was unveiled last year in the brand’s home market of China. But now, it appears that a Xiaomi Smart Band 9 may be launching soon. The Chinese tech giant’s upcoming Smart Band model surfaced in the IMDA database, which is a Singaporean certification. This means that the Smart Band 9 will also be launching in the global market soon. The listing confirms the M2345B1 model number for the base version and the M2346B1 model number for the Smart Band 9 with NFC. Unfortunately, finer details regarding this device like its specs, features, design, and more are still unclear.
The Xiaomi Smart Band 9 and Smart Band 9
NFC were spotted in China, getting the radio certification as well last month.
Back in February 2024, the previous-gen Smart Band 8 Pro finally went on sale
in Europe, despite it first arriving in China in August 2023. On the other
hand, the base Smart Band 8 launched back in April 2023. So now, we can expect
the Smart Band 9 launch to be imminent as well. You can even check out review

It is worth noting that this is still just
an unconfirmed report so take this news with a pinch of salt. For those
unaware, last year’s Smart Band 8 features a 1.6-inch AMOLED display that
offered 600 nits of peak brightness and Always On Display. It offered various
health-related trackers like the heart-rate monitor, SpO2 sensor, sleep
tracker, and menstrual cycle monitor. On a single full charge, the device
lasted for up to 16 days. So we can expect similar specs along with some
possible hardware upgrades under the hood.
