Earlier this month, Xiaomi announced its second Wi-Fi 6 router in the form of Mi Router AX1800, just a couple of months after the launch of Mi AIoT Router AX3600. Now, the device is up for purchase in China.
the Mi Router AX1800 was available for pre-order since 15th May for a deposit of 30 yuan and now it can be purchased through JD.com. The latest Wi-Fi 6 router from Xiaomi is priced at 299 yuan, which is roughly $46.
The router comes with a completely changed design as the company has adopted the tower-like form factor. It features hidden dual-band high-performance antenna that aims to offer a strong 360-degree signal coverage.
Both frequency ranges — 2.4GHz and 5GHz have two Qorvo high-performance independent signal amplifiers which increased signal strength by 4dB which should increase coverage by 50 percent. It is powered by a quad-core Qualcomm APQ6000 chipset with dedicated NPU.
