  • Xiaomi has revealed the Smart Band 11 with a slimmer design and a host of new colors.
  • The fitness band features the same 1.72″ display as last year, but with 33% more brightness.
  • Xiaomi also claims improvements to heart rate and SpO2 measurements.

Xiaomi has been the center of attention at the IFA 2026 trade show in Berlin for previewing its new wide Fold, which bears uncanny similarities to the leaked iPhone Ultra. While the Xiaomi 18 Fold is hogging much of the limelight, the brand has quietly revealed its next-generation fitness tracker with the same slim and lightweight design, several weeks of battery life, and a much brighter display than last year’s Xiaomi Smart Band 10.

Arriving just months after the global release of the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro (wider screen, bigger battery than the standard Band 10), the new Xiaomi Smart Band 11 makes minimal design changes. The new Band 11 still offers a choice between a metal and a ceramic casing, as with last year’s model. It’s about a millimeter slimmer than the previous version, measuring only 9.99mm thick, though that presumably doesn’t include the protrusion from the optical sensors on the back. The Band 11 with the metal casing weighs only 15.58 grams, but without the band included.
