Immediately after the presentation of the long-awaited Xiaomi Mi MIX 3, the founder of the company and host of the event, Lei Jun, has also unveiled a really interesting gadget to pair with the newly announced smartphone, let's talk about the Xiaomi Xiaoai Bluetooth Speaker Portable Edition.
The Xiaomi Xiaoai Bluetooth Speaker Portable Edition is precisely, as the name suggests, a Bluetooth speaker that incorporates Xiaomi's AI assistant called Xiao AI in a portable version. The device comes in white color, is very light at only 52 grams and tiny, the company even equates it to the size of an egg, it is also waterproof even if they do not let us know the certification (IP67 or IP68).

Despite being really small, the Xiaoai speaker still manages to produce high quality audio thanks to the DRC technology that is on board. This dynamic sound compression algorithm is able to create a clean sound without distortion, accompanied by bass no less.
Even the design of the upper plastic then has a motif that follows the Fibonacci spiral, in theory this would make it possible to "see" the voice of its interlocutor if used as a speakerphone, or of the assistant AI if put to work.
Since we are already talking about Xiao Ai, we add that Xiaomi's assistant is able to perform many operations, such as starting a movie by saying the name of an actor, asking the robot vacuum cleaner to start cleaning home, as well as functionality already seen in other AI assistants how to play a song after saying the title, ask what the weather is like and call contacts in the phone book.
The Xiaomi Xiaoai Bluetooth Portable Speaker Edition comes with Bluetooth 4.2 for a quick connection to smartphones, tablets, PCs, TVs and more, while the battery has a capacity of 480mAh for around 4 hours of audio playback. Xiaomi official site will be available at 49 Yuan, only 6 €; we are sure that it will soon arrive in many international stores.
