When searching for available portable speakers sooner or later you will get positive reviews about the small Xiaomi speakers. Well, why not, the company makes some good ones, you can now start working on acoustics. So we decided to test two models from different price categories. More about Mi bluetooth speaker and Square Box Bluetooth Speaker in the material.

Contents of delivery
In both cases, the speakers are equipped with documentation that is understandable to most inhabitants of planet Earth. Chinese.
Type of packaging and equipment Xiaomi Square Box
The box of the more budget-friendly Square Box Bluetooth Speaker also contains a manual in Ukrainian from the xiaomi.ua store.
Type of packaging and equipment Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Speaker
A pleasant surprise - Mi Bluetooth Speaker is wrapped in a soft case. Strange, but both speakers come without USB cable for charging.
Design
The models are similar in appearance - rectangular body, metal construction. But if the Mi Bluetooth Speaker has aluminum everywhere except the sides, then the Square Box Bluetooth Speaker has a metal edging, and the front and back are made of matte plastic.
Xiaomi Square Box
Of course, the more expensive Mi Bluetooth Speaker looks better, but the second speaker also looks pretty good. Two speakers are hidden under the perforation, at the bottom of which there is a Mi logo.
Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Speaker
Mi Bluetooth Speaker is available in several colors - blue, gold and pink. Square Box Bluetooth Speaker only comes in one - white with silver sides.
Connectivity, functionality
Square Box Bluetooth Speaker sports a power/pause/pairing button, indicator and port on the right side Micro USB.
Connectors and controls Xiaomi Square Box
The older brother is more serious - on the right side there are power/pause, volume up and down buttons, as well as a pairing button. On the left there is a mini-jack 3.5 mm connector, a microphone, Micro USB and a slot for microSD memory cards.
Connectors and controls Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Speaker
Xiaomi Square Box Bluetooth Speaker is a classic option, without any additional “goodies”. But Mi Bluetooth Speaker can be used as a speakerphone. True, the latter was pasted “for change” and it is impossible to have a normal conversation - the interlocutor’s voice is poorly distinguishable, and yours is transmitted with large quantity noise. Thanks to the memory card slot, you can listen to music directly from microSD. On the Mi Bluetooth Speaker, all notifications, be it switching on or battery charge level status, are voiced in Chinese, and the name of the speaker is in the list in paired Bluetooth devices displayed in hieroglyphs.
Ergonomics, scope of use
Due to their minimal size, weight and oblong shape, the speakers can be carried even in your pants pocket. No one will have any problems with transportation. The models are suitable for hikes, picnics, beaches and other similar events. To be honest, the home mini-system that comes out of the speakers is just so-so. It’s a pity that there is no possibility of combining two speakers, as is implemented in products from JBL and Ultimate Ears.
Sound
Each of the speakers earns their money, but since they are in different price ranges, the requirements for them are different.
Xiaomi Square Box Bluetooth Speaker tries hard to produce clear sound at minimum volume, with a pleasant but not dominant bass. As the volume increases, the signal becomes distorted and noticeable “sand” and crackling appear. The maximum decibel level is quite high - it would be better to play quieter, but cleaner.
With Mi Bluetooth Speaker the difference is noticeable at the first listen. No crackling or “sand” at high volumes, pleasant and elastic bass, sufficient detail for such a little thing. In general, it’s quite good - this is truly one of the most “playing” speakers for this kind of money.
Autonomy
Both small boomboxes have a built-in battery: the younger one is 1200 mAh, the older one is 1500 mAh. The autonomy is approximately the same and is about 10 hours when listening to music via Bluetooth at medium volume. The charging time for the speakers is also almost the same - about 2-2.5 hours when used network adapter at 2 A.
Cost, competitors
Xiaomi Square Box Bluetooth Speaker has practically no competitors in its price range (we don’t consider faceless China), there is only a good JBL GO– it is more functional (it has a 3.5 mm mini-jack, a microphone, and a charging cable included), but it holds a charge almost half as much and has one speaker. In terms of sound quality, the creation from JBL is several notches higher.
Mi Bluetooth Speaker has gathered more competitors around it:
All solutions have their pros and cons, but not everyone can boast of a stylish metal body, 10-hour battery life and functionality similar to Mi Bluetooth Speaker.
Results
Xiaomi feels the market and knows what the buyer needs. The brand’s products meet the optimality criterion (price/quality), which is why many people have fallen in love with devices with the Mi logo in just a couple of years. The speakers in question do not represent anything extraordinary - they lack innovation and advanced developments. But they play well and are well equipped for their price. Xiaomi Square Box Bluetooth Speaker has only one drawback - poor sound at maximum volume. Well, in Mi Bluetooth Speaker I would like to hear notifications in English at least.

Appearance
The box is made in the traditional Xiaomi style - snow-white cardboard with high-quality printing. On the front side there is an image of the device.
On the back are technical specifications.
The box opens like a pencil case. The kit includes only the speaker and instructions, even the charging cable was clamped :(
The cardboard is quite thick, so the speaker is unlikely to be damaged along the way.
The instructions are also in Chinese. It's a pity that there is no duplicate in English.
The column is made in the shape of a rectangle. The front part is covered with perforated plastic, under which there are two active speakers and one passive radiator.
To indicate operation, a two-color LED is located under the grid.
Blue color - the column is successfully paired.
Red - the column is discharged or charging.
Alternate flashing - searching for a Bluetooth device.
On top is a microphone, which is used for conversations in headset mode. The interlocutor hears clearly, but there is a “barrel” effect.
The frame of the device is made of soft aluminum, there is a chamfer along the edges.
There are three buttons at the top: power on/search for device and volume rocker. There is no track switching function. The button travel is soft with a characteristic click.
On the back, which is made of plastic, there is a microUSB port and an AUX input.
There are two silicone feet on the bottom to prevent the speaker from sliding on the table, as well as brief specifications.
Device operation
After synchronization with the device, the column is defined as XMFHZ02. I connected the speaker to a computer and a smartphone, and there were no problems with playback. After 10 minutes of inactivity, the speaker turns off.
Working hours:
- Watching movies at maximum volume: 8 hours,
- Listening to music at maximum volume: 4 hours,
- Listening to music at medium volume: about 7-8 hours.
When the charge level is low, it starts beeping every minute! I don’t like speakers with this type of discharge, it’s very annoying.
Charging schedule.
Sound, what can you say about it? There is bass, the speaker jumps, but there is no volume. Vocals sound very distinct and clear, pleasing to the ear. It's quite suitable for listening to music at home, but not likely on the street.
Battle of Xiaomi Mi Speaker Square 2 with JBL Flip3. Xiaomi plays first, then JBL.
Result:
+Good layout of materials and excellent appearance+The sound is better than the Chinese brothers (my opinion)
+Price (relatively inexpensive)
Soft aluminum
- Lack of kit
- Lack of microSD slot (when hiking you want your phone to be charged)
If you are interested in disassembly, please contact me
I tested almost all wireless speakers of a famous brand: choose yours.
Xiaomi wireless speakers have earned well-deserved attention from Russian buyers. There are louder, cleaner sounding ones, cheaper, and even in a store nearby. But there are almost no more reliable, diverse and balanced devices on the market.
Xiaomi Bluetooth 4.0 Speaker (QBH4042CN)
|
Appearance
An all-metal parallelepiped on rubber feet, with thin, neat air duct openings - what could be more stylistically competent and pleasant?
Without laughing, Xiaomi's largest portable speaker looks 100% perfect. Assembled - even better. Nothing rattles, doesn’t shake, and the buttons (of which there are 4) don’t rattle.
Functional
Unlike all other Bluetooth speakers of the company, Bluetooth 4.0 Speaker is autonomous boombox. You don't need a phone - you can connect any player, computer or tape recorder via a cable with mini-jacks on both ends. Or just paste microSD card with mp3 files.
Using the built-in microphone, the speaker can work as a speakerphone (hands-free device).
The bottom button is used to connect to a smartphone or listen to a pleasant female voice broadcasting in pure Chinese about the connection status
and battery. Others are needed to control music and calls.
Sound
The sound volume is sufficient for a small event. Will replace Bluetooth 4.0 Speaker and desktop computer acoustics. Enough for a picnic or a small disco. At full power, it is unpleasant to be near the device - too loud for one person.
The sound is full, “bold” - the entire audible spectrum is fully present, including low frequencies. The highs do not clog the midrange, and even at maximum volume they do not exhibit rattling or sibilance.

Xiaomi Square Box (NDZ-03-GB)
|
Appearance
An improved and somewhat simplified version of the previous column. Unlike its larger brother, it is intended for the international market and is not equipped with a voice assistant.
There are few external differences: the younger version does not have control buttons, carrying only a power button (a short press plays the role of Play/Pause) and a charging port.
In addition, the appearance Square Box depends on the color of execution. The white one is symmetrical, the black one (shown in the photo) has a plastic rear panel with rhombuses. The perforation in the middle for both options is fake - blind.
Functional
Most Xiaomi Bluetooth speakers have a built-in microphone. Square Box Not suitable for speakerphone.
This model does not provide any additional functions: this is simply a device for loud sound playback with portable media via Bluetooth.
However, a new revision with index 2, gradually replacing the regular one on sale "rectangular box", is equipped with additional features and, at the same price, is more desirable for purchase.
Sound
The sound is quieter and less “thick” than in its older brother: a narrower stage (and still these are not classic “tweeters” from a local stall), more blurry highs. However, for personal use and this is still enough for a small company.
In general, the main difference in sound from the more expensive modification is lower volume. The passive radiator produces very rich low frequencies. With the help of this speaker, you can easily sound a party on an area of up to 20 square meters: the low frequencies of the Bluetooth “box” are like in large acoustics.
Due to the design of the perforation of the case, the sound has a clear directionality, and behind the speaker it is significantly quieter. Despite this, even the maximum volume does not pose any problem for the Xiaomi Square Box - there is absolutely no noise or distortion.

Xiaomi Bluetooth Speaker 2 (LYYX017M)
Characteristics
|
Appearance
Cylindrical Speaker 2 has the most original design among all the devices presented in the article. The role of the control button is played by the upper part.
Speaker 2 Made of plastic - only the turning ring is metal. The protective grille of the speaker, hidden behind a rag mesh, is also plastic.
The format of the device allows installation in most bottle holders - to a bicycle, stroller or other means of mobility and transportation. Use as a sports accessory is limited - no dust and moisture protection T.
Functional
Like the older model, Xiaomi Speaker 2 loves to talk and notifies you in a pleasant female voice when it is turned on and connected to your smartphone. In Chinese.
If this does not raise questions, the endlessly rotating mechanical volume control (the role of which is performed by the entire upper part of the body) turns it into the most convenient Xiaomi Bluetooth speaker.
Additional control functions are assigned to the top button. I pressed the grille on top - the speaker turned on and the music started playing. Once again - pause. The column works similarly with incoming calls.
Sound
The manufacturer claims stereo sound. Unfortunately, none of the analyzes (nor the official materials) confirm this. But it is not refuted either.
The sound is loud enough for one room, at the level Square Box. The sound is clear throughout the entire playback range, there are no wheezes or sibilances - problematic frequencies are “cut off” at the hardware level. The audible part is sufficient for most genres of music, except for extreme metal genres.
Shaking and carrying do not affect the sound of the speaker in any way. Horizontal positioning also does not affect playback.

Xiaomi Mi Portable (XMYX02YM)
|
Appearance
The smallest among Xiaomi portable speakers. Very similar to a cylindrical shower head - but much smaller than either of them. The edges are decorated with a neat chamfer.
On the reverse side there is a very convenient rubber button that is impossible to miss. It contains a charging port, next to which there is a hole for a lanyard.
Dimensions and weight allow you to attach Mi Portable on a woman’s handbag or a bunch of keys, not to mention a backpack or bicycle.
Functional
The speaker has a built-in microphone. When you press a single button, control is carried out Xiaomi Mi Portable e: turn on/off and pause/play the current track.
With its help, you can turn the speaker into a speakerphone (the microphone is hidden in the hole for the lanyard) - with one click you can answer a call or hang up.
Sound
Despite its size, Mi Portable is quite suitable for a small company or personal use - as a loud speaker or speakerphone. The volume is enough for a noisy street, cycling alone, or a video conference for a whole group.
The sound is clear, wheezing appears only at maximum volume when playing high frequencies. Like other Xiaomi speakers, Mi Portable copes well with bass and sound effects videos.
A portable speaker is a thing that costs available money, takes up little space, plays music anywhere and anytime. All this is absolutely true for a completely fresh speakers Xiaomi Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker, which we will begin reviewing immediately.
At all, portable bluetooth speaker- this has long been a tired category of gadgets. There are thousands, if not tens of thousands, of them on the market now. There are also an incredible number of noname crafts.
As long as the manufacturers of these devices are not perverted. Speakers come in black, white, green, round, square, in the shape of hares and bear cubs, waterproof, heavy, weightless, awkward - in general, whatever your heart desires. Almost any Chinese factory can tomorrow release a product line ready to conquer the market. The components are cheap, the process has been established for a long time - in general, do it, I don’t want to.
Xiaomi is not lagging behind, annually releasing two or three models of its own speakers. But unlike numerous competitors, they all have their own identity. First of all, their gadgets are stylish, made in a minimalist design using high-quality materials. But one of the decisive factors is the price, traditionally low for Xiaomi products.
This also applies to our hero, who was announced relatively recently. Now the official price of Xiaomi Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker is $9.
Since none of us will be able to buy anything in the official store, we should look towards third-party online platforms. So, the column came to me from here. In this store they are asking $13.68 for it, which in Russian money is now about 900 rubles. Pennies? Not that word! Especially considering the quality and capabilities of this baby.
The packaging for the device is very small: 70.7 x 70.7 x 28 mm. At first, I didn’t even believe that they sent me exactly what I ordered. I thought they cheated me.
I unpacked it and it turned out that what was inside was true. portable acoustics, which is really miniature.
- dimensions: 52 x 52 x 25 mm
- weight 58 grams
The base of the case is made of metal, which is neatly painted in golden color. There are also two more colors found in nature: silver and dark gray.
I have a gold version - stylish, glamorous, perfect for my style.
On the back there is a large rubber plug, which also doubles as a stand. The power button is closer to the top edge of the bottom. She's the only one here. Hold the button and the speaker turns on, hold it again and it turns off. The pairing process is very fast and hassle-free.
By the way, connection breaks practically never happen. My Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker disconnected from my smartphone on its own only a couple of times. I do not know why. In addition, for normal signal transmission, it is better not to put any obstacles in its path. The speaker will not reproduce anything through the wall. From a distance further than 4-5 meters too. By the way, 5 meters is the maximum working distance declared by the manufacturer itself. You see, they didn’t lie.
Technical specifications of Xiaomi Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker:
- power 2 W
- signal-to-noise ratio 53 dB
- Bluetooth 4.0
- supported profiles: A2DP, HSP/HFP
- noise reduction technology (CVC)
There is also a built-in microphone. I still don't understand where it is located. There is an LED next to the Micro USB port (flashing red or blue), and there is a loop on the side for attaching a strap. Most likely, the microphone was hidden under a metal mesh, somewhere near the speaker.
Since there is a microphone, the gadget can be used as wireless headset. Everything is just like that. Moreover, at the other end of the tube the interlocutor can clearly hear your speech, if you hold the speaker even at arm's length. Once you move a meter or more away, you can no longer hear so well. The expected, quite good result.
Managing a call is very easy. When a call comes in on your smartphone, press the back button once - the call is accepted. Pressed again - hang up. Long press - rejects the call. Everything is simple and clear.
The only inconvenience is the following. For example, you listen to music from a smartphone through a speaker. At this moment a call comes in. I want to talk through the phone microphone. And at this moment there is no way to turn off Mi Speaker. LeEco, for example, does not allow you to go to the Bluetooth settings. You have to talk on speakerphone through a speaker.
The top side is very similar to a shower strainer. I think if the speaker ever breaks, you can take it apart and use the body as a watering can for a yogurt bottle. You can, for example, water flowers or give your hamster a bath. This is some free, useful advice.
Let's move on to the main function of the gadget. The sound quality is quite good. The average volume is enough to fill an average sized room with sound. At the same time, communication will most likely not be comfortable. Setting the volume to one third is another matter.
The speaker is surprisingly loud. At maximum volume, grunting, whistling and other “joys” come out. It is better to set the volume to 80-90%. The music will still play loud, but extraneous noise will leave.
If you place the speaker on some hollow wooden surface, it will begin to transmit low-frequency vibrations to the wood. However, I still can’t call it bass. They are only indicated here, but in fact they are not there. Don't forget about the size of the speaker and its cost.
In general, you shouldn’t expect impressive sound quality from acoustics of such a tiny size. The speaker will be perfect for the court where it is absolutely impossible to listen to music through something more or less serious. I would advise audiophiles to pass by. May their ears not be defiled.
Personally, I love high-quality sound, but I still consider myself more of an ordinary person. And I am completely satisfied with the sound quality. But I like the dimensions of the speaker even more. It is really very small, weighs almost nothing and can always be taken with you. It won’t fit in a bag, much less a backpack.
And besides, on the side circumference there is a small loop where you can thread a cord and conveniently attach the acoustics to jeans, on a bicycle - or anywhere at all.
Time battery life varies greatly depending on the volume set. For example, at maximum the speaker lasted 2 hours 17 minutes. After this, endless disconnections began to occur, which means it’s time to charge. By the way, this can be done both from a computer and from a regular charger with a 1 ampere output. IN the latter case The gadget charges up to 100 percent in 1 hour 50 minutes.
If you set the volume to the average value (50-60%), then you will have to try hard to drain the built-in battery (300 mAh, by the way). In this position, my gadget played for 12 hours and 20 minutes. It is clear that such autonomy is through the roof.
We are approaching the end, and therefore we will list the positive and negative aspects of the device:
- very competitive price
- stylish, high-quality case
- tiny dimensions
- almost unnoticeable weight
- good sound quality
- good autonomy
- no cable connection (3.5 mm<->3.5 mm)
- wheezing at 100 percent volume
I didn’t consider the lack of a Micro USB cable included as a minus. Still, each of us has one or two such wires through which we can charge our gadget.
And once again: for such a price the speaker can be forgiven for anything. And if for some Xiaomi Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker is still a big compromise, then look again at its design, evaluate the quality of the body and build as a whole, and, well, the price, comrades, the price!
In general, if you don’t need such a gadget yourself, you can still buy it and give it to someone. After all, our country is full of different holidays (March 8, February 23, New Year, Bastille Day, and so on) and it doesn’t hurt to be prepared for them in advance.
