Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Xiaomi Mi Compact Bluetooth Speaker 2 XMYX02YM

  • Extremely compact, lightweight, and highly portable design
  • Excellent value for money and very budget friendly
  • Surprisingly loud volume and clear audio quality for its small size
  • Distortion free sound performance even when played at maximum volume
  • Stable Bluetooth connection up to a 10 meter range
  • Includes a built-in microphone that enables basic hands free calling
  • Allows users to easily monitor the speaker's battery status directly from a smartphone

What customers don't like about Xiaomi Mi Compact Bluetooth Speaker 2 XMYX02YM

  • Weak low frequency response resulting in an average and lacklustre bass
  • Relatively short battery life providing only up to 6 hours of playback time
  • Lacks any formal water or dust resistance rating
  • Built in microphone quality is quite poor and sounds distant to the receiver
  • Uses an outdated micro USB charging port instead of modern USB-C
  • Physical hardware buttons do not allow you to change or decrease the volume directly from the device
  • Speaker unit vibrates visibly when played at maximum volume levels

Verdict

The Xiaomi Mi Compact Bluetooth Speaker 2 (XMYX02YM) is an ultra-portable audio device featuring Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity, a 200Hz to 18kHz audio frequency range, and a 4Ω rated impedance. It is powered by a 480mAh battery that delivers up to 6 hours of continuous playback at 80% volume and includes a built-in microphone for hands-free calling. The main advantages are its highly lightweight pocket-sized design, extreme budget-friendliness, clear upper frequencies, and reliable 10-meter wireless range. However, its primary drawbacks include a lack of deep bass performance due to its small physical driver size, an outdated Micro-USB charging port rather than modern USB-C, and no official IP water-resistance rating.
