Grab the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6 at a 19% Discount on Amazon Today!

Smartwatches have come a long way from being just fitness trackers to being essential everyday tools. They now show notifications on your wrist, monitor health metrics, and even serve as a replacement for your wallet for quick payments.

One of the latest models to see a significant price drop shortly after its release is the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6. Initially priced at £104.99, you can now purchase it for just £84.99, the same price as the new Fitbit Air. This marks the lowest price for the newly launched model, saving you 19%. Additionally, the Redmi Watch 6 NFC model is also discounted from £129.99 to £104.99. Both models are available in all colors but are Limited Time Deals on Amazon, ending on 30 May.

The Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6 boasts a 2.07-inch AMOLED display with a slim 2mm bezel on both sides for improved outdoor readability. The watch is 9.9mm thick, 1.4mm slimmer than its predecessor, and features an aluminum alloy frame for a premium look and durability.

With up to 24 days of battery life under light use, the Redmi Watch 6 offers impressive longevity. The NFC function on the NFC model allows for contactless payments with support from Mastercard and Visa. The watch also includes over 150 sports modes, heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, and a dual L1-L5 GNSS system for precise outdoor activity tracking. Additionally, it is water-resistant up to 5 ATM, making it suitable for swimming and rainy weather.

The deal on the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6 is compelling due to the significant price drop shortly after its launch, offering a 19% discount on the latest Xiaomi smartwatch.

While reviews of the watch are still limited, early feedback highlights the high-quality case, good display quality, and premium feel. Some users have noted minor functional differences compared to the predecessor, suggesting that the extra cost may not be worth it for everyone.

For those upgrading from an older fitness watch, the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6 offers a modern package with a large display, NFC, GPS, and long battery life. Alternatively, the older Redmi Watch 5 Active is available for just £27.99, providing excellent value for money. Early users suggest that the differences between the models lie more in the details than in the core functions.
