It has been quite a few days since Xiaomi launched the Redmi 8 and the Redmi 8A smartphones in India and China. And it looks like the brand was holding back an interesting feature of both smartphones that it revealed on Weibo today – the Sonic Dust Removal. According to the brand, this feature plays a custom-designed sound frequency for about 30 seconds to flush out the dust that gets accumulated in the device speaker.

Thanks to Sonic Dust Removal, you might not have to go through the trouble of removing the dust from the speaker manually. That being said, we don’t know how effective is this method at cleaning the speaker. Maybe it is just a gimmick to attract consumers. What we also don’t know is that if the device will activate Sonic Dust Removal automatically, or if users have to run it manually. It is also worth mentioning that even the Redmi Note 8 and the Redmi Note 8 Pro come equipped with the same feature. And it is good to see that Xiaomi is bringing features from its mid-range smartphones to the budget devices.
