Xiaomi first launched a Mi branded mouse in September 2016. That’s a long time away and the success of the product has spurred a couple of other improved models to get outed. The MIJIA Air mouse has been unveiled in China, clutching a price tag of 89 yuan ($12). The price is even cheaper than the first-gen model even with the improved features.
The MIJIA Air mouse comes with an ultra-thin, portable, stylish and lightweight design. Surprisingly, some find the design unappealing due to the absence of a prominent contour where the hand can rest. That isn’t supposed to be a big deal as the mouse makes up for any flaws with good build quality and powerful hardware. It comes with a thickness of just 2.9cm. That is one-third the size of other mouse models in the same category. It can easily fit into a jeans pocket which is usually tight.

The device comes with a metal roller which gives a better rolling feel. It brings support for dual-mode connectivity mode which can be achieved via Bluetooth and an adapter. With the two modes, a single mouse can be used to control more than one device at the same time. The dual-mode switch button is located under the fuselage. You also get the option of turning off the mouse sound via a button. Thus, it can be used in serene environments where noise isn’t needed like offices, conference centres, library, classroom, etc.
Further, the mouse features high-precision photoelectric sensors make it easy to use on jeans, wooden or plastic tables or on top a sheet of paper.
There are no words yet on the availability but we expect this product to be available via third-party retailers outside China soon.
