Closer Look: Xiaomi Mi Powerbank 5400mAh

After that much-hype Xiaomi Mi Powerbank sale over at Lazada the other day, we managed to purchase a unit which arrived today. Unfortunately, the 10,000mAh variant was sold out in under a minute and we only managed to get the 5400mAh at Php450.

For a Php450 powerbank, we didn’t expect much from the Xiaomi Mi Powerbank. However, after receiving the package from Lazada this morning, we were thoroughly impressed at the build quality and craftsmanship Xiaomi has put on this little device.

The design is simple and elegant, reminds us of the old iPod Nano from many years ago. If it wasn’t for that small Mi logo, you’d expect it was Apple that created this powerbank. The attention to detail, the premium feel and monochromatic touches give it that perception.

The size is just right, not too heavy and very pocketable. Came with a short charging cable but we wish they also included a cloth pouch so the aluminum case won’t get exposed and scratched easily.

The Mi Powerbank has one microUSB port for input charging (2A) and a regular USB port for output charging (1.5A) with 4 LED indicators to show battery status.

At Php450 (plus Php55 shipping), we’re not surprised why it was sold out very quickly during the Lazada sale.

    Ayan na naman ang Lazada… very good marketing strategy.. pinapasabik lang lahat para maghoard pero hindi naman ubos ang stocks.. they were even reprimanded for doing such a strategy.. anyway.. i will just wait until it becomes available again.

    Actually Sir that’s 10400mah and 5200mah. I got mine yesterday afternoon. I ordered two 10400mah powerbanks and one 5200mah but what I have now are just two powerbanks. I don’t know why they separated the delivery, still waiting for the other 10400mah.

      I got 2 transactions. 2 x 10,400 powerbanks each order. I got 2 discount vouchers so I have to make 2 orders.
      I used an iPhone on my left hand and an Mi3 on my right hand. I even used PayPal instead of COD which supposed to take time coz I have to login to PayPal to approve my payment to Lazada. You’re just slow. Better luck next time.

      Sana ibahin ang araw at oras ng flash sale. Lamang ang mga tambay, call center agents na naka off duty, and hoarders pagbili nito hahaha. Pano naman kami nasa opisina sa oras ng flash sale? Try nilang magbenta sa sabado at tingnan natin kung sino ang mabagal
