Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Xiaomi SSXCQ01XY

  • Sleek, stylish, and compact flask-like design
  • Extremely lightweight and portable at only 500 grams
  • Convenient USB-C charging interface
  • Strong, impressive suction power for its size on max mode
  • Easy to clean with a one-touch empty dustbin mechanism
  • Excellent for quick cleanups in cars, keyboards, and hard-to-reach areas
  • Washable and reusable dual-layer filtration system

What customers don't like about Xiaomi SSXCQ01XY

  • Short continuous battery life, lasting only about 9 to 10 minutes on max power
  • Small 100ml dust container capacity that fills up quickly
  • The regional EU version has lower wattage and only a single, weaker speed mode
  • Device tends to heat up significantly during extended use
  • Long battery recharging time relative to its short runtime
  • Not suitable for deep cleanups or large debris

Verdict

The Xiaomi SSXCQ01XY (Mi Vacuum Cleaner Mini) is an ultra-portable, cordless handheld vacuum cleaner featuring a 120W brushless motor that spins at 88,000 RPM to deliver a powerful maximum suction of 13,000 Pa. Weighing approximately 0.5 kg and measuring 267 x 55 x 55 mm, it is equipped with a dual-filtration system consisting of a 304 stainless steel primary filter and a HEPA filter, alongside a 100 ml detachable, one-touch-empty dust cup. Its main pros include its extremely lightweight, flask-like compact design, convenient USB Type-C charging compatibility, and exceptional suction power for tackling small, quick cleanups in cars or on desktops. However, its notable cons are a limited battery life that drops sharply from up to 30 minutes in standard mode down to just 9 minutes in high-power mode, a relatively long 3-hour charge time, and a small dust capacity that requires frequent emptying.
