Xiaomi has officially launched its much-anticipated MIJIA Smart Audio Glasses 2, showcased through the Xiaomi Youpin crowdfunding platform at a promotional price of 999 Chinese Yuan (approximately 3.5 million VND). This launch on March 25, 2025, sets the stage for the glasses to compete against a collaboration between Meta and Ray-Ban, reinforcing Xiaomi's commitment to innovative tech.
Stepping up from last year’s model, the new Mijia Smart Audio Glasses 2 come with several design enhancements that make them thinner and more comfortable to wear. The temples now measure only 5mm in thickness, representing a reduction of 26% at the narrowest point and 30% at the widest point compared to its predecessor. Weighing in at just 27.6g, the glasses distribute weight evenly, thus alleviating pressure on the nose for extended comfort during wear.
The frame incorporates a cutting-edge 'super-flexible piano steel hinge,' developed over a year, ensuring durability even after 15,000 bends. A second-generation quick-release mechanism, featuring a 70% smaller hinge design, allows users to swap lenses with one hand easily. The glasses are available in five stylish frame options: metal aviator, hybrid browline, classic Boston, hybrid aviator, and deep-space titanium.
On the audio side, the performance has seen substantial upgrades too. The acoustic structure has been optimized for improved volume and noise reduction, making for a superior listening experience. A four-microphone array, enhanced by intelligent algorithms, significantly boosts clarity during calls, responding to consumer needs for better communication.
For customers seeking privacy, a new mode significantly reduces sound leakage via a combination of inverse sound waves and an anti-leakage membrane. Users can effortlessly activate this feature through the Mijia Glasses app, delivering peace of mind in conversations.
Furthermore, the glasses allow for easy voice notes; just pressing and holding the temple activates the instantaneous recording feature without needing a smartphone. A notification light illuminates each time the recording is in progress, ensuring privacy measures remain well communicated.
Completing its robust feature set, the glasses boast an IP54 rating for water and dust resistance, support for voice assistants, and live audio broadcasting capabilities.
The battery performance has also impressed, with the device offering up to 12 hours of music playback, 9 hours of talk time, and a staggering 12 days of standby time. The 2C magnetic charging technology allows a full battery recharge in just one hour, while a quick 10-minute charge can deliver up to four hours of listening time.
Xiaomi’s MIJIA Smart Audio Glasses 2, with their thinner, smarter design and enhanced audio performance, promise to mark a significant milestone in the world of smart audio glasses, appealing to tech enthusiasts and everyday consumers alike.
