Xiaomi has finally revealed what it was his announcement released yesterday hinted that a direct relationship with the world of video games. At first thought, even, that the firm could launch a console to compete with Microsoft or Sony, nothing to do. What has been shown is bluetooth joystick which has dubbed Xiaomi Gamepad. Perhaps the news is not so important, so we pay attention to a small detail: Its price. This Gamepad Android hit the market with a lower value at 14 euros. Not that the competition is characterized as being too expensive, except those which are compatible with iPhone and iPad, but the emergence of Xiaomi in this segment returns to break the market.
The connectivity using the command is Bluetooth 3.0. Thanks to her, we can play, not only in our smartphone or tablet, too, why not a SmartTV or the recently introduced Xiaomi Box Mini. If we look at its design, the joystick has a very similar to the Xbox, with classic crosshead distribution and 4 side keys and typical “Start” and “Select” on the front. We also see two back buttons on each side, the popular L1, L2, R1 and R2. Among its features are a vibration motor, accelerometer and internal battery capable of providing 80 hours of use per charge. Still, if we think that short time, the company has decided to integrate some options to further increase the autonomy. Including the detection of rest, that after 5 minutes without use, enter into savings mode to avoid overspending.
The joystick is now available in store Xiaomi will be interesting to see it work on a Mi Note or Mi Note Pro, when we make them our own. Both smartphones were presented a few days ago, leaving everyone wanting a closer look. The two would have a very attractive screen size: 5.7 inches with a resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 2K pixels. This means that it will be a blast to play any game on them and even more so handle them with this new economic joystick. And, 2K resolution doubles the level of detail of a traditional Full HD panel, and offers a density of 515 dots per inch.
As if this were not enough, the sound is also one of the strengths of the devices. A powerful Quad HD resolution we can add to a system of high fidelity audio (24 bit/ 192KHz), allowing us to listen to music and movies without loss of quality from the original. As for the departure, it is expected that the Mi Note is available (at least in China) from next January 27 at a price that could reach about 315 euros. For its part, the Mi Note Pro comes the same day, but its price will be somewhat higher, about 450 euros. Do not forget, is the professional version of the device, intended to compete face with Samsung Galaxy Note or Apple iPhone 6 Plus.
