Was in the market for a slim pocketable bluetooth speaker and the days of the Jawbone Mini are long gone. Should’ve grabbed one at Microcenter when I had the chance a couple years ago. They were dirt cheap.
Picked up a Soundmatters Dash A for $35 which is pretty nice for what it is. But I came across the Xiaomi on Newegg for $13 so had to try it. Post office should be delivering it today. The $13 price went away but Newegg sent an email about it and it’s back at $13. Seems like a no brainer at that price if you’re in need of a small slim speaker. For reference I wanted to keep one in a portfolio case with my laptop and notepad. The Dash A slips in the outer sleeve no problem. This should too.

Music on the move Created for audiophiles, Mi Bluetooth Speaker provides outstanding sound quality and supports multiple music playback modes. Compatible with smartphones, tablets, TVs, laptops and more. Dual 36mm drivers, NdFeB magnets The two built-in speaker units in the Mi Bluetooth Speaker use strong NdFeB magnets paired with Ferrotec FRM4005 Ferrofluid cooling technology and a black anodizing oxide aluminum alloy diaphragm to make the music quality richer and truer. Lightweight with a long battery life Mi Bluetooth speaker weighs only 270g and can be used for up to 8 hours on a full charge. That’s plenty of playback for travel trips, dance practices and more.
