Xiaomi Prepares Leica Leitzphone And Smart Band 11 For Global Release

Xiaomi is positioning a trio of hardware products for international release, spanning mobile photography, wearable fitness, and desktop audio. Recent regulatory filings, official website updates, and preview images indicate that products previously confined to domestic markets are moving into their final phases of preparation for global distribution.

Leica Leitzphone and Series 17 Global Rollout

As the global launch of the Xiaomi 17 series approaches, the top-tier photographic edition is undergoing a branding change for international buyers.

Live images shared on social media reveal that the international model departs from the bicolore finish seen on the Chinese variant by adopting a uniform black rear panel. The Leica branding on the back and within the camera module is rotated by 90 degrees. However, the mechanical rotating ring surrounding the camera housing remains intact, allowing users to make rapid adjustments to exposure, focal length, and white balance.

Smart Band 11 Clears International Regulatory Databases

Fitness tracking hardware is also advancing toward worldwide availability. A new wearable device carrying the model number M2561B1 has appeared in the official databases of Taiwan’s National Communications Administration (NCC) and the Singapore Electronic Development Authority (IMDA).

While exact battery capacities and screen resolutions remain unannounced, the new wearable is expected to inherit and build upon features from the recently released Smart Band 10 Pro. Expected enhancements include high-brightness AMOLED display technology, refined biometric sensor systems, and updated sleep-tracking algorithms. Essential health monitoring functions, including continuous heart rate tracking, blood oxygen (SpO2) measurement, and extended battery endurance, will remain core components of the lineup. Some industry sources suggest the M2561B1 designation could specifically denote a Smart Band 11 Active variant tailored for rugged sports tracking.

Desktop Speaker Pro Set Global Specifications

On the desktop audio front, the TuttoTech outlet reports that the Xiaomi Desktop Speaker Pro Set has been added to the company’s official global web pages. Initially launched in China under the Redmi Computer Speaker 2 Pro Set moniker, the kit is slated for arrival in the United Kingdom, Germany, and Australia, with additional countries expected to follow.

The audio bundle pairs a compact soundbar with a wireless subwoofer. The soundbar incorporates four distinct drivers—two 10W racetrack drivers and two passive radiators—oriented at a 53-degree upward angle to elevate the soundstage for users seated at a desk. The companion subwoofer features a 96mm long-throw driver and communicates with the soundbar over a 2.4 GHz wireless link designed for low latency during multimedia playback and gaming sessions.

Connectivity features include Bluetooth 5.3 with A2DP support, physical USB connection, an AUX input, and a 3.5mm microphone jack. Users can select from five preset equalizer modes—Music, Bass, Voice, Gaming, and Movie—using a physical control knob and buttons that also manage volume and pairing. The soundbar features integrated RGB lighting with six selectable visual effects, housed in a minimal black finish with metal grilles measuring 51.1 cm x 7.5 cm x 7.5 cm for the soundbar and 15 cm x 15 cm x 21.9 cm for the subwoofer.

International Pricing and Release Timelines

Although regulatory approvals for the wearable line and global product listings for the desktop audio and phone accessories confirm that these devices are in their final commercialization stages, exact launch dates and retail pricing have not yet been formally disclosed. International consumers await official announcements scheduled for the coming quarter.
