Xiaomi has unveiled the Redmi Bluetooth Speaker 2 in China, a pocket-friendly portable speaker designed for everyday listening. Priced at just CNY 99 (about $14), it packs features you’d usually expect from pricier models, including an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance, stereo pairing, and multiple ways to play your music.
The compact, lightweight speaker uses a round, easy-to-grip design and comes with a removable buckle so you can clip it to a bag for hikes, commutes, or beach days. Xiaomi says a dual‑driver setup helps deliver fuller sound for its size, and if you want a wider soundstage, you can link two units together for true stereo.
Beyond Bluetooth 5.3 wireless audio, the Redmi Bluetooth Speaker 2 supports local playback from a microSD card and even offers wired listening through its USB‑C port. That means you can keep the music going even when the battery runs low. Power comes from a 1,000 mAh cell rated for up to 5 hours of use, with charging handled via USB‑C.
Other convenience touches include physical buttons for quick control, three color options, and a durable build suited to outdoor use thanks to the IP67 rating.
