Xiaomi Smart Band 9 picks up certification from Singapore IMDA
If you remember Xiaomi launched the Band 8/8 NFC in April of last year in China and it looks like we may have its successor soon. We recently reported that Band 9/ 9NFC picked up Radio Frequency certification from China. Through the certification, the model numbers were revealed as “M2345B1” for Band 9 and “M2346B1” for Band 9 with NFC. And now, we at The Tech Outlook, have spotted Band 9 on IMDA certification with model number “M2345B1”.

Though the moniker isn’t present on the certification, the model number is and an earlier report concluded that “M2345B1” belongs to Band 9 (Non-NFC). Besides this, it shows as a Low-Power Device and is listed as BLTH(Bluetooth) under the equipment type. I didn’t find any details regarding the hardware specs it may offer on this certification.
At this stage only the non-NFC band 9 is registered, however, it looks like we may not see the NFC global version of Band 9. The reason behind my assumption is that Xiaomi didn’t launch the Band 8 NFC variant outside China. Looking at the record of Xiaomi Band 8, Xiaomi may keep the NFC variant exclusive to China. But it’s still too early for me to run my guessing machine, so I will hold on to it by keeping my fingers crossed.
