Xiaomi Watch S5 Launches in Europe with Premium Design and Long Battery Life

Xiaomi introduced the Watch S5 in May 2026, positioning it as a mid‑range smartwatch with a stainless‑steel 46 mm case, 1.48‑inch AMOLED display and a starting price of £150/€179 in the UK and EU. The device runs Xiaomi’s HyperOS (compatible with Wear OS apps), offers dual‑band GPS, 5 ATM water resistance and a suite of health sensors including heart‑rate, SpO₂, barometer and compass. Xiaomi advertises up to 21 days of battery life; independent testing shows typical endurance of 10‑14 days with regular use.

In Vietnam, the Xiaomi Watch 5, released earlier in 2026, features a 47 mm stainless‑steel frame, sapphire‑glass front and a 1.54‑inch screen. Reviewers note a solid build, a rotating crown for navigation and a fluororubber strap. The Watch 5 is highlighted in a budget‑smartwatch guide as a top cheap option at £269.99, delivering up to six days of use and, with low‑power mode, up to 18 days.

Both models are sold through Xiaomi’s UK and EU online stores and are not listed on the company’s US or Australian sites.
