Xiaomi also released products under its crowdfunding platform despite the avalanche of products released during the press conference yesterday. The company announced its 407th crowdfunding product – a double-sided smart temperature control goose down jacket 3.0. The jacket is on offer for 499 yuan ($70) during the crowdfunding period. The price will likely get a slight increase after the exercise.
The smart temperature-controlled goose down jacket 3.0 uses 90% high-quality white goose down, layered to resist cold wind intrusion. The fluffy white goose down is said to be warmer than duck down. The jacket is stuffed automatically to ensure it is evenly distributed in order to keep everywhere warm.

The smart temperature control jacket features a smart three-speed temperature control design. The temperature control can be adjusted to suit the ambient temperature or as desired by the user. It can be powered using a power bank and Xiaomi claims a 10,000mAh power bank can deliver continuous heating of the jacket for up to 7 hours, enough to see you through a cold day outdoors.
The jacket also comes with a waterproof fabric texture which makes it suitable for use in the dark or when it rains. The front and back of the fabric are said to have been subjected to level 3 anti-splash treatment. The jacket has reflective strips at the front and back which reflects when the light beam strikes it at night, thus making the wearer visible at night.
This is yet another important product from Xiaomi that would come in useful during winter and other cold seasons. We expect the tech giant to make plans to start shipping these interesting products outside China. For now, it will likely be available only in China. Xiaomi has got a couple of other jackets that are already available overseas via thrid-party retailers like the Uleemark multi-storage jacket.
