Xiaomi is taking its latest budget fitness tracker to more international markets, and the Smart Band 11 Active is bringing one feature that should appeal to users who do not want to charge a wearable every few days. The company has expanded sales of the Smart Band 11 Active beyond its initial Polish availability, with the device now reaching markets across Oceania, Southeast Asia, West Asia, and additional European countries.
The Xiaomi Smart Band 11 Active is built as a lower-cost alternative to Xiaomi’s more expensive fitness bands. Rather than using an AMOLED panel, the wearable has a 1.47-inch TFT display with a 172 x 320-pixel resolution and a 60 Hz refresh rate. Xiaomi also includes more than 100 watch faces, giving users plenty of options for changing the look of the tracker.
Battery life is likely to be the main reason buyers will look at the Smart Band 11 Active. It has a 300 mAh battery that Xiaomi rates for up to 21 days of use on a single charge. The tracker uses magnetic charging, so there is no need to connect a conventional charging cable directly to the device.
The fitness side of the wearable includes 50 fitness modes, while its PPG sensor handles several health-related measurements. These include heart-rate monitoring, blood oxygen level tracking, and menstrual-cycle monitoring. The device also carries a 5 ATM water-resistance rating, giving it some protection for everyday use around water.
The Smart Band 11 Active is launching in three colours, with Grey shown by Xiaomi alongside other available finishes. Pricing depends on the market. In Japan, the tracker costs JPY 3,480, which is roughly $22, while it is priced at AUD 59.50 in Australia and SGD 39.90 in Singapore. Xiaomi has also released it in South Korea for KRW 39,800, as well as in Czechia, Sweden, Turkey, and Malaysia.

The international expansion gives Xiaomi another entry-level wearable for markets where price and battery life are more important than premium display hardware. The TFT screen is a clear compromise compared with Xiaomi’s AMOLED-equipped models, but the 21-day battery rating and health-tracking features could make the Smart Band 11 Active a practical option for users looking for a basic fitness tracker without spending much.
