Tomorrow, on 10th August, Xiaomi will be hosting a new launch event where it will be launching the next-generation Mi MIX series smartphone — Mi MIX 4. Along with that, the company has a bunch of other devices to launch, including a new Smart Speaker.

While most of the upcoming products have already been teased by the company, Xiaomi has now teased the new speaker. The teaser poster says that Xiaomi’s new “high-end smart speaker” is small in size but can offer powerful output.

Xiaomi adds that it is not just a speaker but a concert hall for the computer. As the poster already hints, the new smart speaker will be adopting a cylindrical design, similar to premium devices in the market, including Apple’s HomePod. It is also expected to have support for different lighting effects.

It appears that the new smart speaker will be a part of the Xiaomi Speaker series. It will support UWB wireless transmission and can also cooperate with the Mi MIX 4 smartphone for a hardware-level smart home setup, offering an IoT experience.

Previously, in a teaser post, Xiaomi had stated that its first high-end smart speaker will launch with a ‘symphony of technology and art.’ The product might be the L16A Smart Speaker, which was spotted on WiFi Alliance.

The listing of the L16A Smart Speaker does not reveal any key specifications but it does state that the upcoming high-end audio product from Xiaomi also arrives with dual-band Wi-Fi support. This implies that it will be able to connect with users’ smart homes and would likely be able to act as a control hub that lets users control other smart home products can via voice commands.

This is just speculation at this point to know for sure, we will have to wait a day longer for the official event to take place.
