At the Redmi Note 9S launch in Malaysia, Xiaomi also announced its Mi Smart Compact Projector for the market. It is priced at RM 1,899 ($429) and will be available to purchase from April 20 on Lazada, an e-commerce website owned by Alibaba Group.

Measuring and weighing at 150mm x 115mm in dimensions and 1.3Kgs respectively, the Mi Smart Compact Projector resembles a Bluetooth speaker than a projector. That is because it also comes with two built-in 5W speakers with a large integrated sound chamber and a long sound transducer. The speakers also support Dolby Audio and DTS HD decoding and use dual-track virtual surround sound stereo.

Talking about projection, the projector supports 1080p (FHD) resolution but is also capable of playing 4K content. It uses a four-channel LED RGB to project content with an average brightness of 500 ANSI Lumens. It covers up to 85% of NTSC colour gamut and also supports HDR content. It also features a high-sensitive camera for better auto-focus on startup to ensure clarity and sharpness. However, users can also opt for manual motorized focus if needed.
