Table of Contents
The Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker XMYX04WM / BHR4802GL arrived on my desk promising a compact yet powerful audio experience. After several weeks of rigorous testing—from backyard barbecues to quiet evenings at home—I’m ready to share my thoughts on this little powerhouse.
The first thing that struck me about this speaker was its size. It’s incredibly compact and easily fits in a pocket or bag, making it truly portable. The gray finish is sleek and understated. The controls are intuitive and easy to use, with a single button for power, volume, and playback. The build quality feels surprisingly robust for such a small device.

Despite its small size, the Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker packs a surprisingly powerful punch. The dual drivers and passive radiator deliver clear, well-balanced audio with surprisingly deep bass for its size. I tested it with a variety of genres, from classical music to heavy metal, and it handled each with commendable clarity. At higher volumes, there’s a slight distortion, but it’s not overly noticeable. Bluetooth connectivity was stable and reliable throughout my testing period. Battery life lived up to expectations, easily lasting several hours on a single charge.
I particularly enjoyed using the True Wireless Stereo feature, pairing two speakers for a wider, more immersive soundscape. This feature worked flawlessly and significantly enhanced the listening experience, especially for movies and video games.
Pros:
- Excellent portability and compact design.
- Surprisingly powerful sound for its size.
- Good battery life.
- Stable Bluetooth connectivity.
- Intuitive controls.
- Supports True Wireless Stereo.
Cons:
- Slight distortion at maximum volume.
- Micro USB charging instead of USB-C (the included cable is Type-C, however).
Overall, the Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker XMYX04WM / BHR4802GL is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a compact, portable speaker with surprisingly good sound quality. While there’s room for improvement (mainly upgrading to USB-C charging), its strengths outweigh its weaknesses. I highly recommend it for casual listening, outdoor activities, and travel. It’s a fantastic little speaker that over-delivers on sound considering its size and price point.
