Mi Metal Bluetooth Speaker: Packaging
Mi Metal Bluetooth Speaker: Design
When it comes to the design, The Sleek and Shiny Metal body will surely strike your eyes for once. It’s a small Bluetooth speaker size of a Small pencil box that weighs about 0.209 kg and Size (L x W x H): 16.8 x 2.45 x 5.8 cm / 6.60 x 0.96 x 2.28 inches.
It has a fine Quality of Metal used in the body, and on the right side of the speaker, you’ll find all mainstream buttons from power on to changing tracks to Volume Rockers and a Bluetooth toggle Mode button. On the left side, you get a 3.5mm Aux-in port, Micro USB, TF Card Slot, Microphone for Hands-free call, and at the bottom, you’ll find the two anti-skid rubber stoppers, which are important for the speaker to grip its position. At the same time, the white portion of both sides does attract dust from your fingers.
Mi Metal Bluetooth Speaker: Sound Quality
The sound quality of the Mi Bluetooth speaker will make you dance on your feet whether on Pop or Rock beats it hardly matters. The good quality of the Xiaomi speaker is at par with freaking loud and clear the sound is deep and rich; being equipped with Avnera AV3102 chip, the tone is exquisite and balanced & stereo loudness will go up to 90 dB. It’s come with 3Wx2 (40hm, THD. The good thing about the Mi Bluetooth speaker is that the Music playback is true stereo, with the left and right channels playing back independently.
This means you’ll hear music like intended, rather than the speaker downmixing it to mono or only playing around a single channel, unlike many Bluetooth speakers on the market. I did notice slight distortion at maximum volume when listening to Rock music.
Mi Metal Bluetooth Speaker: Other features
It is compatible with Bluetooth 4.0 suitable for iPhone 6S / 6S Plus / iPad Pro / Samsung Galaxy S6 /mobile phone / tablet / TV / laptop etc. If we talk about Bluetooth connectivity strength, that has impressed me greatly. It doesn’t get interrupted or lose its connectivity when you move aside or between your mobile device or speaker. I have tested it on several other Bluetooth speakers. They have failed at this point, including “Portronics Sublime,” which is among India’s most popular & best-selling Bluetooth speakers (Review coming soon).
The Mi Bluetooth speaker does share a solid connection with your Bluetooth Device whether it’s from the 1st floor to the Ground floor or 3rd Floor to Ground Floor. It just remains connected without any sort of Disturbance.
If we talk about its battery performance, it comes with 1500mAh battery juice that gives around 8 hour’s music playback to meet the demand of your favorite music tracks. The Charging time is approximately 2 hours, but if you want fast charging, you can charge it by power bank just like I do. It makes Mi speaker charge in 40mins only! The LED ring around the power button flashes red when it’s about to discharge and flashes white when fully charged.
Conclusion
The Mi Bluetooth speaker’s Metal body adds another charm to its design, and it also ensures that it remains protected from dirt or water. If we talked about its con, then the absence of NFC can be a let-down knowing that Mi 5 is coming with that feature and another one is the absence of English voice assist as it only speaks or assists you in Chinese only.
It is also just a powerhouse speaker that you want to add to your backpack. It is the best & unmatchable Bluetooth speaker you can buy for under $100. You don’t have to shed extensive money to buy a Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth speaker, as you can buy it for just Rs 2,499 only from the store link below.
