For example, Xiaomi has introduced the Redmi Watch 6, an affordable smartwatch that seems to have a pretty decent spec sheet for the price.&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Of course, there haven&#8217;t been a lot of changes over the last-gen smartwatch, but the Redmi Watch 6 does come with a tweaked design. The wearable comes with a new button on the right side, placed beside the crown. This makes Xiaomi&#8217;s latest affordable offering look a lot like the recent Apple Watch models from the side.&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">As Xiaomi notes, this new side button is called &#8220;sub-key,&#8221; and users can assign different shortcuts to it. The brand also highlights that the Redmi Watch 6 is thinner than the predecessor, coming with a 9.9 mm body over the 11.3 mm chassis found in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Redmi-Watch-5-goes-global-as-affordable-smartwatch-with-large-and-bright-display.944488.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the last-gen model<\/a>.&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Besides that, the rest of the specs are not much different than the Redmi Watch 5 (curr. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Xiaomi-Smartwatch-Waterproof-Bluetooth-Fitness-Tracker\/dp\/B0DPX91VHZ?tag=nbcnewsnet-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" class=\"external-link-new-window\">$113 on Amazon<\/a>). For example, the new affordable smartwatch retains the same 2.07-inch AMOLED display, which has support for the always-on-display mode. Of course, the peak brightness rating did see an upgrade, from 1,500 nits to 2,000 nits.&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">The battery also seems to be the same as the predecessor, with the Redmi Watch 6 coming with a 550 mAh battery. Like the last-gen offering, it&#8217;s rated for up to 24 days of runtime. Xiaomi further highlights the advanced GNSS positioning system and support for multiple mainstream apps.&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Other highlights include all-day health monitoring, over 150 sports modes, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.samsung.com\/au\/support\/mobile-devices\/what-is-5atm\/?srsltid=AfmBOorNjzRuJa7cTWyMkHGqIcfkEW-R6bQ7QbBiKyV4HsHhzhf9wgfI\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external-link-new-window\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">5 ATM waterproof<\/a> rating, and Xiaomi HyperOS 3. The launch price of the Redmi Watch 6 in China is CNY 599, about $54, and the company has yet to share when the smartwatch will make a global debut.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Notebookcheck-Team.212978.0.html?&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Bmode%5D=show&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Buid%5D=353\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/csm_abidshanto_aad0636531.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" alt=\"Abid Ahsan Shanto\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Notebookcheck-Team.212978.0.html?&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Bmode%5D=show&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Buid%5D=353\" class=\"j_name\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Abid Ahsan Shanto<\/a> &#8211; Senior Tech Writer  &#8211; 2145 articles published on Notebookcheck since 2023<\/p>\n<p>Abid&#8217;s journey as a technophile began when he first assembled his PC.
