Xiaomi Buds 6: Design, Colors, and Features

The upcoming Xiaomi Buds 6 will be available in Black, White, and Purple color options. Xiaomi has confirmed that the earbuds feature a semi-in-ear design with a biometric curve, ensuring improved comfort and a secure fit.

On the audio front, Xiaomi is teasing CD-level lossless sound quality, positioning the Buds 6 as a premium offering. The earbuds will also come packed with smart AI-driven features, including intelligent recording, translation, and AI-based summaries, aimed at enhancing productivity and everyday usability.

Xiaomi has also revealed key details about the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, which will launch in Black, White, and Starry Green color variants. The flagship smartphone will focus heavily on camera performance, featuring a Leica-branded 200MP telephoto camera sensor alongside Xiaomi’s Light and Shadow Hunter 1050L primary sensor, promising major improvements in photography and imaging.

Completing the lineup is the Xiaomi Watch 5, which is confirmed to be powered by the Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 chipset, paired with a BES2800 co-processor for efficiency. The smartwatch will debut Xiaomi’s first EMG (Electromyography) signal sensor, along with an ECG heart rate sensor, highlighting a strong focus on advanced health monitoring and fitness tracking.

With flagship devices spanning audio, wearables, and smartphones, Xiaomi’s December 25 launch event is shaping up to be one of its most important announcements of the year. More details, including pricing and availability, are expected to be revealed at the official launch.

Expected Global Availability

It is important to note that Xiaomi has not yet officially confirmed the global or India launch timelines for the Xiaomi Buds 6, Xiaomi Watch 5, or the Xiaomi 17 Ultra. At present, all three products have only been announced for the Chinese market, with their official unveiling scheduled in China first. However, based on Xiaomi’s past launch patterns and global rollout strategy, these newly announced devices are widely expected to make their way to international markets, including India, in early 2026. As with previous flagship launches, Xiaomi typically prioritizes its domestic release before expanding availability worldwide, which suggests that global and Indian launch details could be revealed in the months following the China debut.
