Xiaomi Debuts a Color-Screen Digital Walkie-Talkie for Modern Adventurers

Xiaomi has introduced a new Digital Walkie-Talkie in China, packing clear voice quality, a color display, and long battery life into a compact, rugged body. Built on FDMA digital technology, it’s designed to cut through noise for crisp, HD-like intercom communication, whether you’re coordinating at an event, exploring the outdoors, or staying connected across a busy venue.

The 4 W transmitter supports reliable communication up to 5 km outdoors, with coverage suitable for indoor spaces up to about 10,000 m², such as large retail or exhibition areas. It operates on ultra‑narrow 6.25 kHz channels and does not require a radio frequency license in China, making it more accessible for everyday users and small teams.

A 1.57-inch color screen (320 x 200) puts contacts and settings at your fingertips, with tactile buttons for easy operation in gloves or on the move. Pair it with the Xiaomi Intercom app to manage channels and contacts from your phone and even view the relative position of the other party for easier coordination. Audio flexibility is built in, with Bluetooth support for wireless headsets and a punchy 36 mm speaker for loud, clear output.

Battery life is a standout. The 2,500 mAh cell delivers up to 100 hours on standby or around 14 hours of continuous use, and USB-C fast charging means you can top up on the go. It even works while charging, which is ideal for long shifts or extended outings. The device is rated IP54 for dust and splash resistance and remains lightweight at 147 g, so it’s easy to carry all day.
