Xiaomi has started selling the Smart Band 10 Pro in Japan, giving the fitness band its first retail outing outside China before a wider European launch. The Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro keeps the familiar pitch: a bigger AMOLED screen, long battery life, GPS, and enough health tracking to make most budget smartwatches nervous.
The new model arrives in four finishes: Black, Pink, Silver, and a Ceramic Edition. Pricing starts at $68 for the base version and rises to $87 for the ceramic model. That makes it about 12% more expensive than the Smart Band 9 Pro, Xiaomi’s previous model.
Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Pro specs
The Smart Band 10 Pro keeps leaning into the ”more watch than band” formula. It has a 1.74-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 480 x 336 pixels and peak brightness of 2000 nits, plus a 350 mAh battery that Xiaomi says is good for 21 days of use on a single charge.
- 1.74-inch AMOLED display

- 350 mAh battery

- More than 150 workout modes
- More than 200 watch faces
Ceramic Edition and health tracking
Beyond the usual step counting and notifications, Xiaomi is pushing the band’s health credentials with heart-rate and SpO2 sensors that it says are more accurate than before. The device also includes GPS, which matters because that turns a gym accessory into something more useful for runners who do not want to drag their phone along for every session.
The 5ATM rating should cover swimming and rainy commutes without drama. The ceramic version is the flashiest of the bunch, but the real draw for most buyers is the combination of price, battery life, and a spec sheet that looks uncomfortably close to that of a low-end smartwatch.
Japan first, Europe next
Japan is the first market to get the Smart Band 10 Pro outside China, ahead of its expected European debut. That rollout pattern is classic Xiaomi: test demand, polish the offer, then use aggressive pricing to make rivals like Huawei, Samsung, and Fitbit work harder for every sale.
The open question is whether the ceramic model and GPS are enough to justify the premium over the regular Smart Band 10 family once the device reaches more markets. If Xiaomi keeps the price near this level, it has a very tidy answer for anyone who wants smartwatch features without smartwatch money.
