Xiaomi launches Mijia electric screwdriver with 2,000 mAh battery, torque of up to 4 N·m, and autonomy for about 600 screws.
Xiaomi has launched a new electric screwdriver in China from the Mijia line, reinforcing its commitment to compact and rechargeable home tools. According to Gizmochina, the model is called Mijia Electric Straight Handle Screwdriver and was announced in May 2026 with a crowdfunding campaign in China for 99 yuan, approximately US$ 15 in direct conversion.
According to XimiTime, the tool features a 2,000 mAh battery, three-level torque control, a maximum electric torque of 4 N·m, a maximum manual torque of 8 N·m, and USB-C charging. The publication also reports that Xiaomi claims autonomy to tighten approximately 600 screws with a full charge.
2,000 mAh battery promises up to 600 screws per charge
According to XimiTime, the 2,000 mAh battery is one of the main highlights of the new Mijia electric screwdriver, allowing for about 600 screws with a single charge. This is the autonomy data released for the product.

Xiaomi does not provide an official duration in hours. Therefore, the estimate of 3 to 8 hours should be considered as intermittent use, not as continuous operation of the motor. In a real assembly, the user tightens screws, pauses, positions pieces, changes bits, and adjusts materials, which makes the charge last much longer than in direct activation.
In continuous use, considering about 3 to 5 seconds per screw, the 600 screws would equate to approximately 30 to 50 minutes of motor activation. In intermittent home use, this same charge can provide several hours of light work, depending on the torque, type of screw, and frequency of use.
Torque of up to 4 N·m in electric mode targets furniture assembly and home repairs
According to XimiTime, the new Mijia Electric Straight Handle Screwdriver delivers 4 N·m of maximum torque in electric mode and up to 8 N·m in manual use. This setup allows the tool to be used for both automatic tightening and manual reinforcement when the screw requires more force.
The torque control in three levels, also reported by XimiTime, helps adapt the tool’s force to different materials. This is important in furniture, hinges, brackets, simple electronics, and home repairs, where excess torque can damage the thread or mark the surface.
The product’s purpose is not to replace high-impact professional drills or screwdrivers. The focus is on urban tasks, furniture assembly, and light maintenance, where portability, battery, and force control weigh more than raw power.
USB-C charging makes the tool more practical for home use
According to XimiTime, the screwdriver uses a USB-C port for recharging. This makes everyday use easier because the standard is already present in chargers for cell phones, tablets, laptops, and other electronic devices.
The choice also reinforces the portable proposal of the Mijia line. Instead of relying on a proprietary charger, the user can recharge the tool with common cables, as long as the product specifications are respected.
This detail helps differentiate the new screwdriver from older or simpler models, which still rely on specific bases or less universal connectors.
Kit with 18 bits expands use on different types of screws
According to XimiTime, the new Xiaomi electric screwdriver comes with 18 bits, being 9 long and 9 short, stored in a magnetic system. The publication reports compatibility with standards such as slot, Phillips, hexagonal, Torx, and Pozidriv.
In practice, this expands the tool’s use for different types of assembly and maintenance. A more complete kit prevents the user from needing to buy separate bits right from the first use.
The set reinforces Xiaomi’s strategy of selling the tool as a ready-made home solution, not just as a standalone electric motor.
Low price in China draws attention, but Brazilian value would depend on taxes and importation
According to Gizmochina, the Chinese campaign for the product was announced at 99 yuan, approximately US$ 15. The price of 129 yuan, mentioned in commercial releases, is equivalent to about R$ 96 in approximate direct conversion.
This direct conversion does not represent the final price in Brazil. If the product is sold by importers or marketplaces, the value may increase due to international shipping, taxes, import fees, commercial margin, and exchange rate variation.
Even so, the Chinese price helps explain the launch’s repercussion. Xiaomi placed a tool with a 2,000 mAh battery, adjustable torque, USB-C, and a bit kit in an aggressive range for the local market.
New Mijia screwdriver targets those who want autonomy, practicality, and low price
The new Mijia Electric Straight Handle Screwdriver draws attention because it combines a large battery for the category, modern charging, torque control, and a low price in the Chinese market. According to XimiTime, the promise of up to 600 screws per charge is the main argument for the model’s autonomy.
The duration of 3 to 8 hours should only be understood as an estimate for intermittent use in household tasks, not as official data from Xiaomi. The official number available is the operational capacity of about 600 screws per full charge.
For those who assemble furniture, make small repairs, and want to avoid tools that discharge quickly, the launch shows how Xiaomi tries to transform even a simple screwdriver into a product with high technological appeal.
