The market of wearables It does not rest and Xiaomi seems to be preparing its next big launch for the high range. According to recent leaks shared by Asian sources, the expected Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro could be presented in May 2026. This new generation would seek to move away slightly from the traditional concept of affordable bracelet, betting on a much more premium and radical changes in their physical proportions.
One of the most striking new features will be the inclusion of a ceramic special edition white. This finish would provide significantly superior resistance and feel, a strategy that the brand has already implemented successfully in the smart band 10 standard. This exclusive version will coexist with the regular models with a frame metalwhich will arrive in black, white, silver, orange and pink.
The weight dilemma: more battery or new screen?
The use of noble materials brings with it a direct sacrifice: the notable increase in weight of the device. While the previous generation barely weighed 25 grams without its strap, the latest rumors indicate that the new standard version will weigh close to 40 grams. For its part, the ceramic model would overcome the 50 gram barrier. This difference is too large to be due solely to the new case material.
Everything indicates that the brand will integrate a higher capacity battery or, perhaps, a panel that abandons the rectangular format to adopt a squarer and wider design. Although the build quality promises to improve substantially, this increase in volume could sacrifice the classic minimalism of the saga and, logically, significantly increase its final market price.
With this clear leap towards heavier and more robust designs: Do you think that activity bracelets are losing their original light essence to become simple smart watches?
