Xiaomi has launched a compact Bluetooth speaker that doubles as a magnetic phone stand, offering a practical solution for users who want to keep their device secure while listening to audio. The magnetic mounting feature allows the speaker to attach directly to compatible smartphones, eliminating the need for separate stands or cases that interfere with wireless charging. The device targets buyers looking for an affordable, multi-functional accessory for their daily commute or desk setup.
Compact audio device doubles as magnetic phone mount
The Xiaomi Magnetic Bluetooth Speaker is a small, portable audio device designed to attach to the back of smartphones. It features a 1.5-inch full-range driver that delivers 3W of output power. The unit weighs 95 grams, making it lightweight enough to remain attached to a phone without causing significant bulk or balance issues. It connects via Bluetooth 6.0 and supports AAC and SBC audio codecs for standard wireless audio streaming.

Durability and power management are key aspects of the device's design. It carries an IP67 rating, meaning it is dust-tight and can withstand immersion in water up to one meter for 30 minutes. Power comes from a 650mAh battery, which Xiaomi claims provides around four hours of continuous playback on a full charge. Charging is handled through a USB-C port, ensuring compatibility with modern cables and chargers.
The speaker includes a magnetic phone stand compatible with iPhone 12 and later models, as well as Android devices equipped with a magnetic ring. This versatility allows a wide range of users to utilize the magnetic attachment without purchasing additional accessories. The magnetic mount ensures the phone stays securely in place during use, providing a stable viewing angle for videos or calls.
The device is available in China from Sept. 1 to Sept. 30 at a promotional launch price of 149 YUAN (around $22.12) CNY (around $22.12). This is a discount from its regular price of 199 YUAN (around $29.54) CNY (around $29.54). Xiaomi has not announced global availability yet, so international buyers will need to wait for further information on potential international releases.
