Xiaomi Launches Mi AI Speaker Mini to Take on Amazon Echo Dot

The increasing traction which the IoT space is receiving has lured in a lot of brands. Starting with Amazon which rolled out its own Echo range of smart speakers providing smart home features, Xiaomi has no plans to be left behind in this space. With a lot of Xiaomi products coming with embedded AI based features, Xiaomi has finally come up with its Echo Dot Rival and is calling it the Mi AI Speaker Mini. Although the close followers of the brand will know that this is not the first step that Xiaomi has taken to compete with the Amazon’s Echo, this new instalment in the IoT series is simply a miniaturised version of the AI Speaker which Xiaomi launched last year. This smart device which is powered by Artificial Intelligence will debut in China on April 2 at the price of RMB 169 which in INR comes out to be Rs 1,746.
