Xiaomi has launched a smart speaker in China, called XiaoAi Speaker HD. The company has also unveiled a Xiaomi Bluetooth Headset Air. The newly launched speaker comes with Xiaomi’s own virtual voice assistant. It also enables controlling smart home devices. The smart speaker will be available for RMB 599 (approximately Rs 6,100), starting from January 11, 2019.
The Xiaomi XiaoAi Speaker HD is said to offer support for 360-degree surround and Hi-Fi sound quality. The speaker measures 150x150x230mm, and is offered in the dark gray and light gray fabric options. It is said to deliver an immersive 360-degree surround sound. It is also claimed to deliver strong performance and rich musical expression. The 104mm large-caliber woofer reportedly has a more accurate transient response.
In terms of design, the smart speaker from Xiaomi features a tower-like minimal design and measures 150mm x 150mm x 230mm. At a first glance, the speaker looks very similar to the Google Home series. The company has even opted to use the dark gray and light gray fabric that wraps around the speaker’s body.
It is made in such a way that it protects the internal components from dust but does not affect the sound transmission. The speaker is designed as a three-dimensional stereo structure that delivers an immersive 360-degree surround sound, says Xiaomi. On the top, there are four buttons — power button, volume up, volume down, and play/pause button.
The company also says that the Xiaomi XiaoAi Speaker HD comes equipped with high-power full-range speaker array that offers strong performance and rich musical expression. Xiaomi has also optimized sound field and the 104mm large-caliber woofer has a more accurate transient response.
The speaker is equipped with a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) that is said to deliver loudness control and automatically adjust the audio settings, adjust the tri-band loudness, and offer clear audio experience. Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 4.1 technology that support A2DP music playback. Additionally, one will find a string of buttons, including the power button, volume up, volume down, and play/pause button on the top.
Xiaomi is currently rumored to launch a new Redmi smartphone on January 10 in China. Rumors are rife that the company could launch either the Redmi 7 or the Redmi Note 7. However, reports also suggest that the Chinese company could unveil the Redmi Pro 2 on January 10, which is highly speculated to sport a 48-megapixel rear camera.
