Fresh off of the launch the recent Mi MIX Alpha, Xiaomi is now back with something new. It’s a much smaller launch this time around, with the latest Mi product being the Mi Outdoor Bluetooth Speaker, which we actually heard about a couple of months back. It’s finally ready to go on sale, for the price of 199 yuan ($28).

The Mi Outdoor Bluetooth Speaker comes with Bluetooth 5.0, and in a surprising twist it features a USB-C port (as all devices should have at this point). There’s a 2600mAh battery with 8-hour continuous playback, along with 52mm speaker drivers. There are even two HD microphone pickups, which is a nice touch.

When it comes to the design and build, things also look pretty good. It features the pill design that many companies have been going for as of late, but it’s got a few extras. It comes with IP55 dust and water resistance, which makes sense for an outdoor speaker. The main chassis utilizes seamless fabric and soft plastic, so it’s light and rugged.

Xiaomi’s Mi Outdoor Bluetooth Speaker will go on sale at 10:00 on the 26th of September. It’ll be available exclusively from Xiaomi’s official mall page for 199 yuan ($28). Overall, it seems like a nifty little bluetooth speaker, and it’s certainly not a bad price for the features available. Tell us your thoughts down in the comments section below.
