Xiaomi has just applied for a new trademark application that could be an upcoming consumer electronic product. The application is for the “XIAOMI MAGIC CONTROL,” which could possibly be a new smart universal remote controller.
This trademark application for Magic Control was filed for multiple categories including advertising sales, design research, scientific instruments, and communication services. At the moment, the trademark is still waiting for registration. Unfortunately, apart from the name of this product, we have no real information to go on as of right now since it is just an application (spotted by ITHome). Although, we can make certain speculations regarding the nature or function of this device.
The name ‘Magic Control’ is quite similar to a previously launched gadget from the Chinese tech giant dubbed Mi Magic Controller. This was practically a cube that will function as a standard remote controller. It offered users various forms of controls and actions and worked with a number of Xiaomi products including lamps, TV sets, Air Purifier, along with smart TVs and other smart products as well.
The most notable aspect about this product was that certain actions were input through simply shaking the cube, moving it, and even rotating it 90 degrees or 180 degrees, or by making a double tap on it. So, the Magic Control might be similar to this product. However, it might also arrive with additional features like gesture support or even air gestures as well. But we have no way of knowing for sure.
