Following earlier leaks, the Xiaomi Smart Band 11 Active has begun rolling out to retailers. Rather than a coordinated global launch—including directly through Xiaomi's official channels—the wearable is gradually trickling into the market. Initial price comparisons list the device starting at around €33 plus shipping, while an Amazon third-party seller sets the official release date for September 3.

The Amazon listing confirms a portrait-style 1.74-inch display with a 60 Hz refresh rate. Featuring a 2.5D curved glass design, the screen edges blend seamlessly into the casing. Powering the device is a 300 mAh battery rated for up to 21 days of standby time, though typical daily usage will require a recharge after roughly a week. Feature-wise, the tracker covers core health functions like heart rate measurement, SpO2 monitoring, and sleep tracking. While it lacks a built-in GNSS module for standalone GPS positioning, a 5 ATM water-resistance rating makes it suitable for swimming.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.
