Your Soundtrack for Every Adventure: The Robust Outdoor Speaker
The Xiaomi Sound Outdoor was developed for use in the great outdoors. Its robust housing with a fabric cover and rubberized elements can take a beating, while the integrated carrying strap makes transport a breeze. The highlight, however, is its IP67 certification. This means it is not only splash-proof but completely dustproof and can even withstand brief submersion in up to one meter of water. Whether at the lake, barbecuing in the park, or on a rainy hike – your music will reliably accompany you.
Surprisingly Powerful Bass and Smart Sound
Don't be fooled by its compact size. With 30 watts of total power, divided between a powerful woofer and a precise tweeter, this speaker delivers an impressive sound. Two passive bass radiators on the sides noticeably enhance the low frequencies, providing a rich, punchy bass you can feel. Xiaomi has also integrated smart audio technologies that dynamically adjust the sound. The result is a natural, balanced sound that retains all details even at low volumes.
Flexibly Connected: Bluetooth 5.4, TWS Stereo & Party Mode
Thanks to the latest Bluetooth 5.4, you can connect your smartphone or tablet in a flash and benefit from a stable connection over up to 25 meters. For a true stereo experience, you can wirelessly pair two Xiaomi Sound Outdoor speakers into a TWS pair – perfect for a wider, more immersive sound. And when you need to go big, the multi-speaker function allows you to connect up to 100 speakers simultaneously. This way, you can effortlessly cover larger areas and turn any party into an event. The right robust IP67 outdoor speaker for parties has been found.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor be used as a power bank to charge a phone?
No, the speaker does not have a power bank function. The USB-C port is exclusively for charging the speaker itself.
Is the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor really completely waterproof?
Yes, with an IP67 protection rating, the speaker is protected against temporary submersion in up to 1 meter of water for a maximum of 30 minutes. This makes it ideal for use by the pool or in the rain.
How do you pair two Xiaomi Sound Outdoor speakers for stereo sound?
To activate True Wireless Stereo (TWS) mode, briefly press the connection button on both powered-on speakers. The devices will automatically find each other, pair, and then act as the left and right audio channels.
Does the speaker support high-quality audio codecs like aptX?
No, the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor supports the standard SBC and AAC codecs. Higher-resolution codecs like aptX or LDAC are not supported, which is common in this price range.
How long does the battery last in practice at high volume?
The official specification of 12 hours refers to 50% volume. In tests at higher volumes (60-80%), a realistic runtime of about eight and a half to nine hours was achieved.
Is the sound very directional, or does it fill the room well?
The bass is quite omnidirectional due to the passive radiators. However, the mids and highs are more directional. For optimal sound clarity, the speaker should be aimed directly at the listener.
