Xiaomi is preparing to launch a new, smaller version of its Watch S4 — the Xiaomi Watch S4 41mm. This model focuses on fashion and style, offering a more compact size compared to the original 47mm version.
The Watch S4 41mm is shown in a “Quicksand Gold” finish paired with a matching gold Milanese strap. The crown features a polyhedron-cut design embedded with a six-point lab-grown diamond. It remains unclear whether the “gold” finish is genuine plating or simply paint.
Battery life is rated at up to 8 days, reduced from the 15-day claim of the larger 47mm model, which is expected given the smaller battery capacity.
The new model is powered by Xiaomi’s in-house Xring T1 chipset, the same chip introduced in last month’s Watch S4 refresh. The Xring T1 integrates Xiaomi’s first in-house 4G modem, which is 35% more power-efficient than the previous version. The chipset also offers enhanced computing performance, enabling features like live view when remotely controlling a smartphone camera.

Xiaomi OpenWear Pro
Xiaomi is also teasing the Xiaomi OpenWear Pro, a pair of open-design wireless earbuds tuned by Harman. The earbuds feature what Xiaomi describes as the “world’s first open-style five-unit system”, though specific technical details remain unclear.
The OpenWear Pro have an open-ear design that allows ambient sound to pass through, making them suitable for environments where situational awareness is essential, such as offices or outdoor settings. The earbuds avoid blocking the ear canal entirely, improving comfort for long-term wear. The use of skin-friendly liquid silicone is intended to further enhance wearing comfort throughout the day.
