Xiaomi: New Bluetooth speaker with RGB lighting and 360° sound now available for import at a very low price
A new and relatively cheap Bluetooth speaker from Xiaomi is now available for international customers outside China. A relatively long battery life is promised, and the device is IP certified against dust and water damage.
A new Bluetooth speaker from Xiaomi is now available at a relatively affordable price and as a direct import. The current price is $59.99, with shipping costs and import taxes included in the price. As usual, shipping times are much longer, and the enforcement of consumer rights is likely to be difficult.
The new speakers are Bluetooth speakers with a built-in battery, making them optimal for activities such as hiking or camping. The battery capacity is stated as 2000 mAh, the runtime as up to 11 hours, and the charging time 2 hours.
Several drivers are installed. Specifically, there are two loudspeaker drivers with a full frequency range available, plus a passive radiator, which should result in 360° sound. The output power is specified as 3 watts, so not particularly high. Two of these models can be linked for true stereo sound, which should also cover a larger area.
The 150 x 100 x 100 mm loudspeaker weighs around 350 grams and has RGB lighting, which can be configured according to your own preferences. NFC is also available, as is Bluetooth 5.3. Lastly, IP67 certification is advertised, which means that dust or splash water are unlikely to cause serious damage.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

Growing up in regional Australia, I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study philosophy and anthropology. I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
