Xiaomi has introduced its all-new Xiao AI with an aim to compete with Siri and Bixby in China. Still, the AI works in Mandarine language only. This is shipped with Xiaomi’s Mi Max 2S but it hardly gets out of China as it runs on Mandarine as of now. Xioami has posted a new video where some English subtitles are also given in order to show how the digital assistant works. Though it runs Mandarine centric commands only, the English subtitles show its aim to take on Samsung and Apple in near future.

Have a look at the promo video that shows that the new Xiao enables voice commands with different functions. With the voice command, users can play music, set alarm and can know about time, weather information, reminders etc.
