Now, a leak reveals the specs of an upcoming 41mm version of the watch. The S-series runs a proprietary version of HyperOS instead of Wear OS, which means fewer features but longer runtime.<\/p>\n<p>The Xiaomi Watch S5 41mm has a stainless steel body that is slightly thicker than its predecessor, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/xiaomi_watch_s4_41mm-13981.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Xiaomi Watch S4 41mm<\/a>, at 9.9mm (up from 9.5mm). The upside of this is the sizable increase in battery capacity to 590mAh. That is close to double the 320mAh capacity of the S4 41mm. The battery will last up to 8 days of normal use or up to 14 days in power saving mode.<\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/26\/11\/xiaomi-watch-s5-41mm-leak\/popup\/gsmarena_001.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Xiaomi Watch S5 41mm in Black and Light Blue (leaked images)\" width=\"159\" height=\"159\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/1793728690_550_gsmarena_001.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/26\/11\/xiaomi-watch-s5-41mm-leak\/popup\/gsmarena_002.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Xiaomi Watch S5 41mm in Black and Light Blue (leaked images)\" width=\"159\" height=\"159\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/1793728690_205_gsmarena_002.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/26\/11\/xiaomi-watch-s5-41mm-leak\/popup\/gsmarena_003.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Xiaomi Watch S5 41mm in Black and Light Blue (leaked images)\" width=\"159\" height=\"159\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/1793728691_611_gsmarena_003.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/26\/11\/xiaomi-watch-s5-41mm-leak\/popup\/gsmarena_004.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Xiaomi Watch S5 41mm in Black and Light Blue (leaked images)\" width=\"159\" height=\"159\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/1793728691_627_gsmarena_004.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>Xiaomi Watch S5 41mm in Black and Light Blue (leaked images)<\/p>\n<p>The screen size is the same as before, a 1.32\u201d OLED with 466 x 466px resolution, but the peak brightness has gone up to 3,000 nits. Like its predecessor, the watch is rated for 5 ATM water resistance.<\/p>\n<p>The watch has an optical heart rate sensor and three temperature sensors for menstrual cycle tracking. Additional sensors include a barometer and a compass. Outdoor positioning is handled via a dual-band receiver with support for GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou and QZSS. The watch connects to the phone over Bluetooth 5.4 and there\u2019s also NFC and Wi-Fi 6 (ax).<\/p>\n<p>For comparison, the Watch S5 46mm is thicker (11mm), but has a huge (for a watch) 815mAh battery and a larger 1.48\u201d display.
