The Mi KN95 Mask is being launched in the country as a daily driver for those looking for better protection during the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. It offers four layers of protection, which is fabricated with a non woven material on the outermost part for filtering particles and the innermost layer for optimal breathing. The Mi KN95 Masks from Xiaomi also offers two layers of melt blown fabric that help in filtering bacteria and small particles.

The mask also conforms with the standard values and arrives with a 95 percent + Bacterial Filter Efficiency (BFE). In other words, it prevents any particles between the size of 1-5 microns while the bacterial filter helps in preventing the entry of any nonviable particles that are between 0.1 microns to 1 micron in size. Furthermore, the microfiltration material used in the mask is soft, lightweight, and is even gentle on the skin, offering comfortable wear for long periods of use.

Notably, the Inspiratory Resistance of Mi KN95 masks is 153.9 Pa while the Expiratory Resistance is 137.9 Pa. Meaning, it offers good breathability and airflow. The mask is also designed with a nose pin that helps in providing a firm grip and prevents any leakage as well that would potentially fog glasses as well. A pack of 2 Mi KN95 masks is priced at 250 INR (roughly 3.5 US Dollars), while a pack of 5 is available for 600 INR (roughly 8 US Dollars) from Mi.com, Mi Homes, and select retail stores.
