  "account": "Xiaomi’s Smart Band 11 introduces minor refinements over its predecessor, the Smart Band 10, without fundamentally altering core specifications. The new model maintains a 1.72-inch AMOLED display with 150-plus sports modes, 5ATM water resistance, and a 21-day battery life, similar to the Band 10. A primary distinction lies in the brighter 2,000-nit display, down from the Band 10’s 1,500-nit, along with a visibly slimmer 9.99mm body, up from 10.95mm. Battery capacity remains unchanged at 233mAh, while Xiaomi continues to assert up to 21 days of usage. The Smart Band 11 also adds sleep HRV tracking and AI-generated sleep insights, alongside upgraded heart rate and blood oxygen monitoring. Despite its enhancements, several key features, including the display size, sports mode count, water resistance, and battery capacity, remain largely unchanged. In China, the standard Smart Band 11 retails at CNY 299, with a CNY 289 introductory price, while international availability remains unconfirmed. For those seeking deeper training metrics and standalone navigation, alternative options like the Garmin Fenix 9 and Fenix 9 Pro are available at higher price points.",
  "summary": "Xiaomi Smart Band 11 keeps the Band 10’s display size and 21-day battery claim but adds more brightness, a thinner design, and new health features. The post Xiaomi Smart Band 11 vs Smart Band 10: What Actually Changed? appeared first on TechRepublic .",
