Xiaomi Smart Compact Projector, Mi Handheld Vacuum Cleaner 1C launched



The first product is a smart compact projector that aims to challenge Sony and BenQ in this segment. The Xiaomi Smart Compact Projector is a small projector that can project to an adjustable screen size between 60 and 120 inches. It outputs 1080p high-definition resolution and is rated at 500 ANSI lumens. The compact projector comes with smart branding thanks to the inclusion of Google software.

The smart compact projector is joined by Mi Handheld Vacuum Cleaner 1C. As the name implies, the product delivers a portable and cord-free vacuum experience. It has a powerful 120 AW suction with multi-cyclone filter system. The design seems very much inspired by Dyson V11 Stick Vacuum Cleaner. There is a 5-step filtration system that captures up to 99.97 percent of particles. Xiaomi is also claiming support for four cleaning tools and up to 60 minutes run time. Again, there is no word on pricing or availability but it should be cheaper than Dyson.

Wi-Fi smart switch.

Programmable wifi switch with support from Alexa, Google, etc. Can be wired in parallel to the existing switch. Needs WiFi only to change settings or to turn ON/OFF remotely. I have set for evening ON, morning OFF. Has memory, so power failure is not an issue. It comes with a nice app. Many customizations available like proximity of a particular mobile phone, local sunrise/sunset timing, etc. Got it for around ₹499 from Amazon.

Only drawback I faced so far is no option for ON mode for a particular duration. You have to set an ON and an OFF time.

Sony WF-XB700 TWS earbuds and WH-CH710N headphones launched



These new true wireless earbuds come with an IPX4 rating but they lack specific fins or loops to secure the earbuds. The big difference between the Sony WF-XB700 and WF-1000XM3 is in experience. The WF-XB700 offers extra bass but lacks support for noise cancellation. It also lacks gesture support and instead relies on physical buttons. They also have lower overall battery life of around 18 hours versus 24 hours on the WF-1000XM3 with the charging case.
