Comparatif Duel : Xiaomi Mi Portable Electric Air Pump 1S vs Bosch Easy Pump

2023-06-15 05:00:00

The first noticeable difference is in the design. Xiaomi’s compressor takes up the “big iPod” format already seen on the previous version of its inflator, while Bosch opts for a “handle” design.

In both cases, the devices are very easy to use, with 5 large buttons allowing you to configure the device and start the inflation phase. No on/off button at Xiaomi since you just have to pull out the hose for the large LED screen to light up. At Bosch, the approach is more pragmatic with a big red button. A little easier to use, the Chinese compressor also stands out thanks to its friendly design, its particularly efficient cable storage system and its more user-friendly interface, aided by the pre-recorded profiles and its large screen.

In use, the Bosch compressor is nevertheless easier to handle thanks to its format offering excellent grip. Small hands will have to do a series of contortions to manage to hold and set the thicker Xiaomi inflator with the tip of their thumb. Also, it displays pressure with higher accuracy (within 0.05 bar), when the Xiaomi works in 0.5 bar increments. On the other hand, it is a little more cumbersome and will have trouble slipping into a small glove box or under a motorcycle seat, for example.

More richly equipped, the Bosch inflator takes the lead by offering a nozzle to inflate pneumatic toys, such as buoys, in addition to the adapter for Presta valves and the needle for balloons. In addition, these small accessories are stored in a space provided for this purpose, housed in the handle of the device, which will avoid losing them. The German drives the point home with its longer, more resistant and much more practical to use sheathed hose, in particular thanks to its mobile tip allowing tires to be deflated without having to completely unscrew the device.

Unsurprisingly, this first round goes to Bosch thanks to its slightly richer endowment and above all thanks to its very practical storage system and its much better thought-out pipe; a detail that will make the difference in use.
