Have you ever thought of getting in the groove of the 360 live view photos and feeds on your Facebook account without paying as much as a separate panoramic camera? Well your in luck! Xiaomi has teamed up with Madv to bring your the MADV MINI PANORAMIC CAMERA. Now, most of them having trouble uploading after taking a photo using the separate camera that it is, needing to be wifi connected, the fear of getting battery low while in action outside the house, the fear of losing such an expensive gadget while on adventure and so on.


With this awesome little camera, that you simply have to attach to your android phone to take those 360 photos, but the first rule is to have a USB C Phone, second rule is no IOS allowed, third rule is you need to have a little patience learning the tricks of this camera, then you are good to go!


Whats in the box:





The box is pretty neat like any high end gadget out there


Dual 13MP camera, 210 wide angle


Instant live chat over wechat


share your videos on youtube


This little guy can do it all!


Camera, lens cover, manuals





Actual Unit:




Front View


Back View


USB C Port, Sorry Micro USB Users and Lightning Port Users




Covered to protect the lens

In Action:


I have successfully mounted it to my Mi6 sporting a USB C port, while using it, I was kinda feeling awkward that I have to hold my phone sideways, till I found out that I have to turn on auto rotate mode, then you can now use your phone the way it was design to be, holding the phone upside down. There really is no front or back camera on this you can insert it eitherway.










you just have to be careful not to bend the camera or accidentally drop the phone, then it will be okay.



Madv Mini App Integration:

If you are in for the adventure, without needing to spend so much, without needing to charge another device and without needing to bring a selfie stick for a panoramic camera, then the Madv Mini Panoramic Camera is just the one that you are looking for. The portability is so good that the problem will be you might just lose is when placed inside your pocket. I love the resolution of the camera and its a pretty much superb investment for techy people like me.


This is now available for 599 RMB in Xiaomi China Webstore
