Xiaomi Mi Cannon Speaker Review

Hands-on with the 'IF Design' Award-Winning Xiaomi Mi Cannon Bluetooth Speaker

Original Reviewed: 7/1/18 | Updated: 6/2/19

Xiaomi have a regular habit of taking inspiration from Apple's design portfolio and applying it to new product ranges. The Xiaomi Mi Cannon Speaker is their latest example and even won an 'IF' design award for its efforts.

But... you don't have to be an Apple fanboy to appreciate great design. The little Mi Cannon (V2) speaker from Xiaomi looks awesome pretty much anywhere next to any setup!

If you've not heard of Xiaomi before, then you're in for a treat as they (like Apple) are masters of creating high-end devices that are especially pleasing to the eye and best of all... use high-end premium materials.

The best bit is (unlike Apple) that they focus on creating products that are not only awesome but also very affordable... Thanks to Xiaomi, we can all now have beautiful gadgets without forking out huge bundles of cash...

To give the Mi Cannon Speaker (V2) a fair review, I've been using it daily for a full month. I've been taking notes on the awesome design, excellent build quality and impressive sound quality... wait... did I just give it all away already?

Not completely... as there are a few reasons why you might want to skip the Xiaomi Mi Cannon Speaker altogether and check out my favourite budget Bluetooth speaker...
