MUMBAI:  Chinese tech manufacturer Xiaomi recently launched its latest offspring,the Mi Bluetooth speaker, along with the Redmi Note 3 in India. The company has so far succeeded in its endeavours with its 'cheap and best' policy. However, the device will have to compete with a dozen other Bluetooth speaker devices in the market to impress buyers.

Let us have a look at the Mi speaker's distinctive specifications.

The beautiful body of the speakers can attract purchasers with its monolithic design and the product is available in different colours from funky blue, pink to elegant golden.
