Xiaomi Cuts Redmi Watch 6 to €85.49 on Amazon as Back-to-School Push Intensifies

Summary

  • €85.49 is Xiaomi’s new Amazon price for the Redmi Watch 6, a summer discount aimed at making the budget smartwatch more attractive ahead of the back-to-school shopping season.
  • The pitch rests on features uncommon at this price: a 2.07-inch AMOLED display, 2,000-nit brightness, multiband GPS, Bluetooth calling, 5 ATM water resistance and battery life of up to 24 days.
  • That pricing keeps the Redmi Watch 6 below the roughly €90 level seen at retailers such as Fnac and MediaMarkt, sharpening Xiaomi’s position in the entry-level wearable segment.
  • Honor’s Choice Watch remains cheaper at €33.99, but Xiaomi is positioning the Redmi model as the stronger value with a larger screen, a 550 mAh battery versus 300 mAh, and more than 150 sports modes.
