Xiaomi has been actively out accessories, especially power banks in its home country. However, the Chinese tech giant recently announced something for the international audience too — a soundbar! This article will delve into the Xiaomi Soundbar 2.0ch in further detail along with its expected price in Nepal.
Xiaomi Soundbar 2.0ch Overview
Design
As far as the designs go, there is nothing much going on. It looks like any other standard soundbar with a long and slender build. It has a metal mesh on the front with a matte finish. Xiaomi highlights this mesh on the Soundbar 2.0ch is corrosion and wear-resistant, and easy to clean as well. The thing comes in all black, of course.
Furthermore, there are multi-functional buttons on the side which include volume controls, a power button, and one that appears to be exit. These are on the right, and the left side probably is vacant. Users can mount the Xiaomi Soundbar 2.0ch onto the wall similar to flatscreen TVs. As such, people can achieve a table-free aesthetic giving their setup a really cool look.
Audio and Connectivity
The Xiaomi Soundbar 2.0ch clearly mentions that it is a 2.0-channel soundbar. Meaning that it only has two speakers going for the audio and no subwoofer whatsoever. Given that, the audio units on this soundbar are two 45 x 80mm racetrack full-range speakers with a duct-type sound cavity in between. The speakers are 15W each, pumping out 30W of total output.
For connectivity, the Xiaomi Soundbar 2.0ch comes with Bluetooth v5.3 and allows pairing with various devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and well, TVs. You can also establish the wired connections with an SPDIF, an optical, and a 3.5mm AUX port. These are quite limited options, but just enough for a clean and clutter-free TV setup.

Xiaomi Soundbar 2.0ch Price in Nepal and Availability
This soundbar has been listed on Xiaomi’s global website, though the pricing has not been revealed. I tried scouring through the company’s Chinese site but to no avail. That being said, we will have to do some guesswork over here. We can buy the Xiaomi Soundbar 3.1ch in Nepal, which various vendors have priced differently. However, if we are to pull an average of all of them it comes around at NPR 35,000.
Since the Xiaomi Soundbar 2.0ch is a much underwhelming offering than the 3.1ch, it should cost less too. So, it might be priced around NPR 20,000, or even lower.
