Everyone knows that Xiaomi makes superior smartphones at affordable prices and that its most successful product series, Redmi Note, is doing better than ever. But over the past few years, Xiaomi is expanding its product line and the company is no longer limited to just smartphones. If you ever visit the company’s website, you will realise that Xiaomi sells a lot of cool products and accessories ranging from fitness bands to smart security cameras in India.
That is why we have put together this guide to familiarise you with some of the must-haves Xiaomi devices under Rs 5000. Read on.
Mi Beard Trimmer
Although not as powerful as some of the other trimmers out there, Mi Beard Trimmer gets the job done. This waterproof trimmer is great for trimming and is an ideal choice for sensitive skin. The Mi Beard Trimmer feels great in the hand, and it is also very easy to clean. You will get two comb accessories, plus a travel case as well. It doesn’t come with the standard charger, just a regular USB port that allows you to plug into the laptop and charge in minutes. At Rs 1,199, Mi Beard Trimmer provides excellent value for frequent travelers.
Mi Soundbar
The Mi Soundbar is compact, looks stylish, and fits nicely with the decor of your room. The sound from the Mi Soundbar fills the entire room. It performs well with music, movies and games, too. There is no Dolby Atmos or HDMI support, but the soundbar can be used with any TV (traditional or smart) with the SPDIF cable or Bluetooth. Sure, Mi Soundbar cannot be compared to high-end Soundbars from the likes of Bose and Sony but its attractive design coupled with the excellent audio quality and reasonable price of Rs 4,999 makes it a good buy.

Mi Body Composition Scale
Whether your doctor recommended you to lose weight, or you are on the mission to get healthy this year, there are multiple reasons to get a smart body scale. Xiaomi has one and it’s the best smart scale in that price range. This smart scale measures your weight, body mass index, mass muscle, body fat and more. It shows the results via LED lights or you can use the app that records the data and compiles the detailed analysis daily, weekly or monthly basis. This Bluetooth-powered smart scale can recognise up to 16 people, and runs on four standard AAA batteries. There are other smart scales in the market that are more advanced- but Mi Body Composition Scale has an edge over others due to its Rs 1,999 price tag. And that really matters to users in India.
Mi LED Wi-Fi Smart Bulb
Smart bulbs are often considered as the gateway to smart homes. Xiaomi too offers a smart bulb in the market, which connects directly to your Wi-Fi network, so you don’t require an additional gateway or hub. The Mi LED Wi-Fi Smart Bulb works with several smart home systems such as Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. The smart bulb can produce 16 million colours, and is rated to last 11 years. Its unique feature is that you can add different effects, such as studio lighting, candlelight, fluorescent lamp, etc. You can also dim or change colours whenever you want.
