Xiaomi launches new power-saving split air conditioner with 3-minute fast cooling

23 May 2026 at 23:50
Xiaomi Mijia Air Conditioner Giant Power Saver 2026

Xiaomi has launched a new air conditioner called Mijia Air Conditioner Giant Power Saver 2026 in the Chinese market. The AC is priced at 1899 yuan ($278) and is now listed on JD.com. It will go on sale on May 30.

Mijia Giant Power Saver 2026 AC Specs

The main selling point here is energy efficiency. The 2026 model has an Annual Performance Factor (APF) of 5.36, earning it a Level 1 energy efficiency rating in China. Xiaomi estimates this translates to saving about 208 kWh of electricity a year compared to older standards, which works out to roughly 124 yuan ($18) in savings annually.

To manage this, the unit uses a 9.8cc compressor, a dual-row evaporator, and a 108mm cross-flow fan. It can push up to 760 cubic meters of air per hour, and Xiaomi says it takes about three minutes to reach a target temperature in a standard room.

The AC runs on Xiaomi’s Mijia Lingyun control engine, which uses cloud-based learning to adjust how it cools or heats based on your habits. For example, it can tweak the temperature automatically while you sleep to save power and keep the room comfortable. It connects to the Mijia app and supports Xiaomi’s HyperOS Connect for integration with other smart home devices.

Like a lot of modern hardware, it also supports over-the-air (OTA) updates. Xiaomi says it will continue to tweak the energy-saving algorithms and add features over time. There is also a built-in diagnostic system that runs 122 different checks. If the filter needs cleaning or the refrigerant is running low, the app will send a notification before the unit actually stops working.

For maintenance, the AC has a self-cleaning function that washes and then dries the internal components at 58 degrees Celsius to prevent mold and bacteria. It is also built to handle a wide range of temperatures, operating in outdoor environments as cold as -35 degrees Celsius or as hot as 60 degrees Celsius. When running quietly at night, the indoor unit’s noise level drops to 18 decibels.

In related news, Xiaomi has recently launched a new AI-powered split air conditioner called Mijia Air Conditioner Powerful Wind Pro.

Ugreen launches M3 Bluetooth speaker with 20W audio, water drainage tech & 20h battery life

23 May 2026 at 21:02
Ugreen M3 Bluetooth speaker

Ugreen has released a new portable Bluetooth speaker in China called the M3. It is currently listed on the retailer JD.com for 249 yuan ($36) and is designed primarily for outdoor use. While it shares a lot of similarities with other rugged speakers on the market, it includes a specific feature to deal with getting wet: a water drainage system that uses sound to clear out the grille.

Ugreen M3 Speaker Specifications

If the speaker gets splashed by a pool or left out in light rain, you can open Ugreen’s companion app and turn on a dedicated drainage mode. The speaker will then generate high-frequency vibrations, up to 400 times per minute, to physically push trapped water out of the hardware. It is a practical approach to water exposure, working alongside the device’s standard IP66 rating for dust and water resistance.

Physically, the M3 weighs 653 grams, which is light enough to throw in a backpack for camping or a beach trip. It comes in two colors, Starry Black and Champagne Gold, and includes a hidden RGB light strip at the bottom. The lights can be set to solid colors, a breathing effect, or synced to your music. There is also an SOS mode that flashes the lights and plays a warning sound in case of an emergency.

For audio, the M3 uses a 20W triple-driver setup. This includes specific drivers for high and mid-low frequencies, plus a passive radiator to handle the bass. Ugreen says it uses digital signal processing (DSP) and its own bass enhancement software to keep the low-end frequencies audible even when you have the volume turned down. The company says the speaker can reach a sound pressure level of 105dB.

On the connectivity side, the speaker supports Bluetooth 6.0 and LE Audio. It also supports Auracast, meaning you can sync the audio with over 100 compatible devices, or you can just pair two M3 speakers together for standard left-and-right stereo sound.

Ugreen M3 Bluetooth speaker

The speaker runs on a 2,500mAh battery. Ugreen estimates it will last up to 20 hours on a single charge, provided you keep the volume at a moderate level and leave the RGB lighting turned off. It charges via a standard USB-C port. It also features a built-in microphone for phone calls and voice chats.

In related news, Ugreen recently launched a 160W GaN fast charger with five ports and a smart display, alongside a new 45W 10,000mAh power bank featuring a built-in cable and integrated smart screen.

Edifier launches S260 retro Bluetooth speaker with 65W RMS output, LDAC & AirPlay 2

23 May 2026 at 18:14
Edifier S260 Speaker

Edifier has announced a new desktop speaker, the S260, which goes on sale in China today for 1,059 yuan (roughly $156). The pitch here is pretty straightforward: it’s a speaker that looks like a piece of vintage hi-fi equipment but includes current wireless standards like AirPlay 2 and LDAC support.

Edifier S260 Speaker

Edifier S260 Speaker Specifications

Physically, the S260 leans heavily into an older aesthetic. The cabinet is made from medium-density fiberboard (MDF) to help reduce acoustic resonance, paired with an 18mm thick front baffle and a woven grille.

On top, there is a CNC-machined aluminum control panel that includes physical mechanical toggle switches and metal knobs for adjusting volume and playback. It’s a fairly heavy unit, weighing in at 4.07kg (about 9 pounds). You can get it in three colors: Black Walnut, Pearl White, and Warm Brown.

Edifier S260 Speaker

Inside the cabinet, the hardware is standard for a modern desktop setup. It uses a 4-inch aluminum diaphragm mid-bass driver alongside two 25-core titanium dome tweeters. According to Edifier, the tweeters can push high frequencies up to 40kHz, while the woofer handles bass down to 50Hz.

The system is powered by dual Texas Instruments TAS5805 digital amplifiers. It outputs 65W RMS, with a peak power of 130W. Edifier also claims a low distortion level of 0.03% and a signal-to-noise ratio of 107dB(A), with audio processing handled by a built-in DSP chip.

Edifier S260 Speaker

The connectivity options are where the speaker becomes more practical for everyday use. It has both Hi-Res Audio and Hi-Res Audio Wireless certifications. It supports the LDAC codec, allowing for higher-resolution streaming over Bluetooth (up to 990kbps).

It also includes Apple AirPlay 2 support over 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi, which is useful if you want to stream audio directly from an iPhone or Mac. The Bluetooth 5.4 connection supports dual-device pairing, so you can keep a phone and a computer connected at the same time and switch between them.

Edifier S260 Speaker

If you prefer to plug things in, the S260 has an AUX analog input and a USB sound card input, making it easy to connect to a PC or a turntable. It also comes with a small remote control and works with Edifier’s mobile app, where you can adjust the EQ, switch inputs, and update the firmware.

In related news, GOBOULT has recently unveiled new Mustang series speakers with Marshall-inspired styling at affordable prices, while Portronics has introduced the Strings smart speaker with a built-in alarm clock and wireless charging support.

Ugreen launches new 45W 10,000mAh power bank with built-in cable & smart display

23 May 2026 at 14:43
Ugreen-45W-Power-Bank

Ugreen is releasing a new 45W power bank (PB610) in China, and it includes a few practical hardware additions alongside a customizable color screen. Listed on JD.com for 199 yuan ($29) ahead of a May 26th release, the 10,000mAh battery pack tries to reduce the number of accessories you need to carry by integrating a built-in USB-C cable directly into the device.

Ugreen 45W Power Bank

Ugreen 45W Power Bank Specifications

The main draw here is the 1.47-inch smart screen on the front. If you like to monitor your hardware, the display shows real-time data like total output power, battery temperature, remaining charge percentage, and overall battery health. If you don’t care about the exact wattage, you can connect the power bank to Ugreen’s mobile app via Bluetooth and upload custom images or emojis to display instead. It is a minor feature, but it gives a normally boring utilitarian accessory a bit of personality.

Ugreen 45W Power Bank

Physically, the device is a fairly standard size for a 10,000mAh battery, measuring 109 x 58.5 x 25.5mm and weighing about 239 grams. Ugreen went with a silver finish and included a built-in USB-C cable with contrasting red accents. The cable loops around to function as a carrying strap, which is a practical design choice if you prefer not to carry a separate wire when you leave the house.

Inside the casing, the power bank uses two 5000mAh 21700 cylindrical steel shell battery cells. Ugreen says it also includes an upgraded NTC temperature-control chip that monitors heat levels regularly to maintain safe temperatures during charging.

Ugreen 45W Power Bank

For connectivity, the power bank has a 2C + 1A configuration: the built-in USB-C cable, a standard USB-C port, and a USB-A port. Both the built-in cable and the USB-C port max out at 45W, which is enough to fast-charge most modern phones and power smaller tablets. The USB-A port tops out at 22.5W. You can plug in three devices at once, though the charging speeds will naturally drop as the 45W maximum output is divided among the active ports.

Ugreen 45W Power Bank

Ugreen claims the 45W output can charge an iPhone 17 Pro Max to 65% in half an hour. It lists similar 30-minute charging numbers for the Huawei Mate 80 Pro Max (52%) and Xiaomi 17 Pro Max (43%). Because it supports standard fast-charging protocols, it is compatible with standard Apple and Android devices, as well as smaller electronics like the Nintendo Switch, wireless earbuds, and portable cameras.

Right now, the power bank is only listed for the Chinese market. Ugreen hasn’t announced a global release date yet, but the company regularly brings its charging accessories to the US and Europe, so it is highly likely to show up on international storefronts eventually.

In related news, Ugreen has also launched a new portable GaN charger featuring an angled display design and a contrasting red base.
