Xiaomi has launched a new Mi Smart speaker in Spain. This is the one that the company launched in its home market back in May and a few weeks back in India. The new Smart speaker is a bit pricier than the Indian model but definitely costs lesser than Google’s Nest Audio.
The new Mi Smart Speaker starts at € 49.99
in Spain. This is a bit more compared to € 34.86(₹ 2,999) in India. It will be
available for purchase on Mi.com, Mi Stores, and Media Markt. And Xiaomi Spain
says if you buy the Mi Smart speaker from October 16 to 18(tomorrow), you get a
Mi LED Smart Bulb Essential as a gift. Also, Xiaomi says the offer will be live
until the stocks last.
The new Xiaomi Mi Smart Speaker has metal
construction. Xiaomi says the speaker has a warm matte-stone finish. It has a
thin 0.7mm metal mesh wrapped around the cylindrical body that acts as the
speaker area. There are about 10531 holes around the speaker for richer and
thrilling sound. The top edge of the speaker has a ring strip that lights up
and Xiaomi says it comes with 16 million lights. The top surface has
touch-sensitive buttons. There are four buttons- volume up, volume down,
play/pause, and microphone.
For sound, the Mi Smart Speaker has a
2.5-inch 12W speaker with a 63.5mm massive driver. There is a professional DTS
tuning and Texas Instruments’ TAS5805M Hi-Fi Audio Processor for a 360°
surround sound experience. Additionally, there are two far-field microphones
for voice recognition.
The new Mi Smart Speaker also supports
voice recognition through Google Assistant. Users can control music, set
alarms, and control other smart devices. It can also be set up via the “Google
Home” app to control light, security cameras, and more. It supports English and
Hindi. Just Say “Hey Google” to get started.
Other features include Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth
