The Redmi Watch 5 Active offers a comprehensive suite of sports tracking features, including over 140 different sports modes. However, it does not specifically support tracking multiple sports simultaneously. Instead, it allows users to select and track various individual sports activities, such as running, walking, cycling, and more, one at a time. The watch also features automatic sports detection for six specific sports modes: indoor running, outdoor running, walking, elliptical machine, rowing machine, and skipping rope[1][6].
For users who need to track multiple sports in a single session, they would typically need to manually switch between different modes. This might not be ideal for activities that involve transitioning between different sports, such as triathlons. However, for most casual users, the watch provides more than enough data to track progress and stay motivated across a wide range of individual sports activities[6][7].
In terms of connectivity and functionality, the Redmi Watch 5 Active supports Bluetooth 5.3, allowing for seamless integration with smartphones for data tracking and analysis via the Mi Fitness app. This app provides a user-friendly interface to manage and view detailed health and fitness data, including heart rate, SpO2 levels, stress monitoring, and sleep tracking[1][7].
While the Redmi Watch 5 Active does not support simultaneous tracking of multiple sports, its robust feature set and affordability make it a strong contender in the budget smartwatch market for those looking to monitor a variety of individual sports activities.
