As you can gather from the name it's designed in the shape of a pistol gun which is quite different from their other massagers. While it may seem like a weird decision by Xiaomi this device offers ease as well as convenience when it comes to using.

• It doesn't have Xiaomi's usually white and grey color scheme. As you can see from the image, the device is a smooth dark grey in color. However, it still maintains Xiaomi's Unique minimalist design.

• It's about half an arm's length in terms of height and weighs around 2 pounds. So it doesn't get tedious during long massage sessions. This Xiaomi massager feels smooth to the touch it definitely has a unique texture to it. Unique minimalist design. So, overall it looks and feels quite premium.

• On both sides of the gun, you will find dark grey bands with the Yunmai brand name in white. The top portion has a circular plastic protrusion.

Spherical head

• The Spherical will be your go-to massage head as it is meant for massaging large muscle groups such as arms, thighs, calves, lower back, and hips.

U-shaped head

• The U-shaped head is probably the most unique and it does have a unique function: it is meant for the spine and the Achilles tendon.

Cylindrical head

• The cylindrical head is quite hard and it's meant for deep tissue massages. Primarily palms and soles and the quasi-mythical meridians.

Flathead

Xiaomi Massage Gun vs Theragun

Theragun is an American-based sports-care brand that specializes in percussion therapy. Founded in 2008, Theragun has been known in the sports industry as a trusted brand whose devices help break up scar tissue and stimulates the flow of blood.

Currently, Theragun has 4 models of their handheld massagers and these have proven to be effective treatment devices for patients in need.

At a mid-range price of $199, the Theragun Mini is the most portable massage gun on the market.

Let's look at how the Xiaomi Massage Gun performs in this comparison against the Theragun Mini.

Build and Specifications - Xiaomi Massage Gun vs Theragun

While taking size and design into consideration, the Theragun is much lighter and more compact than the Xiaomi Massage gun. At 6*5.3*2.25" the Theragun Mini does not resemble a typical massage gun but carries a triangular design that makes it portable and can be carried around wherever you may go.

Although the Theragun Mini is small, it's not ideal for a total body massage as it tends to get uncomfortable to reach certain areas of the body. The Xiaomi massage gun on the other hand is easier to use and would not require you to stretch a lot to reach areas like your back.

Functionality - Xiaomi Massage Gun vs Theragun

Both products have one thing in common, the ability to penetrate deep into the tissue and relieve fatigue by relaxing the muscle.

• The Xiaomi Massage Gun uses a high-powered 60W brush-less motor which can attain a maximum of 3200 percussions in a single minute making it faster than the Theragun. While Theragun does not pack quite a punch as Xiaomi does, it surely has enough power to match other top models. The maximum percussion the Theragun can attain is 2400 per minute.
• Unlike the Xiaomi Massage Gun, Theragun Mini does not retail with additional massage heads and comes with only the Standard ball attachment. However, the Theragun Mini is compatible with all their 4th gen accessories which can be bought separately.

Verdict - Xiaomi Massage Gun vs Theragun

Between the Xiaomi Massage Gun and Theragun Mini, it's quite clear that Xiaomi has yet again decided to focus on delivering a top-notch product at a very affordable price.

The design and functions of the Xiaomi Massage Gun are far superior to the Theragun Mini. With a larger battery, powerful motor, and available with 4 different massage heads, the Xiaomi Massage Gun is clearly worth every penny.
