A product poco celebrated in our latitudes and yet loved all over the world so much so that the Xiaomi Smart Life division recently announced that sales of Mi Walkie-Talkie have exceeded 2 million units. A real success that prompted the Chinese company to present a commemorative edition for this historic milestone.
Let's first take a dip in the past when the first version of the Xiaomi IMi Walkie-Talkie were launched on the market, or in 2017, immediately establishing itself as a winning product, such as to win in poco time the coveted Japanese Good Design award, one of the most prestigious awards in the design field together with the iF Design award, the Red Dot and the IDEA award. Later Lei Jun's company also released other variants such as the MIJIA Walkie-Talkie 1S in October 2018. Then followed in April 2019, the updated version of the first edition, the Mijia Walkie-Talkie 2 to conclude with Mi Walkie- Talkie Lite in September 2020. The success of these products is, as always, the quality net of a price accessible to all: in fact, the launch prices ranged from 129 yuan (about 17 euros) to 449 yuan (about 58 euros).

The watchword for the design of these niche objects is minimalism. In fact, the entire body of the Mi Walkie-Talkie has a few function buttons and a clearly legible display, all to facilitate use even for the less experienced. But minimalism does not mean ease of construction, quite the contrary and in fact a single block molding process is used to make the body of the Xiaomi Mi Walkie-Talkie using an ultrasonic welding technology.
In terms of the communication function, the product adopts a universal antenna interface design. It is possible to change antennas of different lengths according to your needs to obtain a greater call distance as well as being able to connect the product to the smartphone app to be used as an intercom.
Returning to the Xiaomi Mi Walkie-Talkie Commemorative Limited Edition, these stand out in red and blue colors, but at the moment price and availability have yet to be announced.
