Xiaomi has also stepped up the pace of its plans for home appliances globally by investing in a brand new massive production line in China, which is set to increase efficiency exponentially. Now that Xiaomi/Mijia refrigerators, air conditioners, and washing machines are rolling out from China into even more countries worldwide, Xiaomi has introduced a new generation factory that is optimized for speed, efficiency, and scalability.

The establishment of a new production base for Xiaomi home appliances

In order to cope with the increasing global demand, Xiaomi has launched a factory that is specifically used for making home appliances – Wuhan Xiaomi Smart Home Appliance Factory. This is the very first factory Xiaomi has set up that specifically focuses on producing large home appliances, as most of Xiaomi’s previous products are smartphones, televisions, etc.

In the words of Lu Weibing, Partner, and President of Xiaomi Group, as well as the CEO of the Xiaomi brand, “Phase one of our factory has been completed, and we are already operating at full capacity.” This means that the factory is currently operating at full capacity with optimized production lines for efficiency. This is a demonstration of the commitment by Xiaomi to vertical integration and intelligent manufacturing practices.

The Wuhan factory is significant because of the rate at which it produces its goods. It takes only 6.5 seconds to produce a unit of the Mi Home Central Air Conditioner Pro Dual Fan Wheel.


The factory now has a total of six professional production lines, which include the entire assembly process of air conditioners for residential and central air-conditioning systems. This helps Xiaomi increase production speed with minimum human labor inputs, ensuring high standards of quality control. The initial production of air conditioners from this factory is now readied for commercial launch.

Xiaomi’s Third Mega Factory & Strategic Milestone

The Wuhan Smart Home Appliance Factory is the third giant smart factory established by Xiaomi, after its state-of-the-art smartphone factory and the automotive super factory. But this particular factory holds a special strategic place because it is Xiaomi’s maiden giant factory only for home appliances.

Xiaomi is making a bold statement with a significant investment in appliance manufacturing, which means that the brand no longer considers smart home devices a secondary product line to the smartphones. This is because Xiaomi is now making smart home devices a fundamental component of the overall expansion strategy, which is linked to Xiaomi HyperConnect and the AIoT ecosystem.

Fast construction: a paradigm of efficiency established

Other than the rate of production, the construction schedule of the Wuhan plant has been of some interest. The plant is situated in the East Lake Technology Development Zone, with the foundation stone being laid on November 26 of last year. The construction started within three months of the signed contract, with the main structure completed on January 20, 2025.

The completion of a huge such industrial project within such a short period has set a certain benchmark within Xiaomi, as far as project completion is concerned. It clearly shows that Xiaomi is applying a certain efficiency technique from product development to infrastructure development.

The effective price of around USD 180, after deducting the national subsidy discount, makes it competitive for users looking for modern and high-capacity washing solutions.

In today’s world of smart living, creating a connected home is not about buying random gadgets but building a well-synced ecosystem. Xiaomi’s products under Global Edition let users devise a united smart home environment fusing automation, comfort, and accessibility all controlled on the Xiaomi Home app. Especially for markets like Turkey, Xiaomi’s Global lineup opens an affordable gateway into highly functional modern home automation.

Why You Should Choose Xiaomi Global Versions

When building a smart home with Xiaomi, one of the most important decisions is between the Global and China (CN) versions of products. Global versions are optimized for international markets, offering:

• Full Google support, including Google Assistant integration.
• Leaner software, without unnecessary local applications.
• Global server compatibility enables all devices to connect under one region.

By contrast, Chinese versions require switching to “Mainland China” servers, which can split your ecosystem — Google Assistant won’t work, and your devices won’t show up together in the same app environment. To maintain full functionality, only use Global Edition devices and make sure your server is set to a global region.

The Control Center: Xiaomi Home App

The Xiaomi Home (formerly Mi Home) app is the brain of your entire ecosystem. It lets users add, monitor, and automate devices from Xiaomi and its partner brands like Yeelight. You can create “Smart Scenes”-automation rules such as turning the lights on when a motion sensor detects any activity-or control devices remotely, even when you are away from home.

Xiaomi Smart Home Hub 2: The Ecosystem Heart

The key gadget for managing your connected environment is the Xiaomi Smart Home Hub 2 (Global Edition). It supports several communication protocols, including Zigbee, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Mesh, which enable its compatibility with both older and newer Xiaomi devices.

Key Features:

• Dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz & 5GHz) and Ethernet connectivity for stability.
• 1GHz dual-core CPU and 128MB RAM for fast, reliable performance.
• Supports up to 100 devices simultaneously.

It’s available for around $70 on local e-commerce platforms.

Affordable Alternative: Using Smart Cameras as Hubs

If you’re starting your smart home journey, some Xiaomi cameras can also serve as Bluetooth Mesh Gateways. For instance, the Xiaomi Smart Camera C500 Pro operates as both a high-resolution security camera and a Bluetooth hub, in a way enabling you to connect sensors like door or motion detectors without actually needing to buy a separate hub.

Living Room Comfort: Air, Light, and Entertainment

Air Quality

Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4 and 4 Pro employ TÜV Rheinland-certified filtration and Google Assistant support to maintain clean, fresh air while fitting seamlessly into your smart home setup.

Smart Lighting

Bulbs such as the Mi LED Smart Bulb Essential and Yeelight W3 offer dynamic color options, adjustable brightness, and automation via the Xiaomi Home app.

Integration of Entertainment

Devices like Xiaomi TV Box S (2nd Gen) and TV Stick 4K are not only allowing for viewing in 4K with Dolby Vision and Atmos support, but they are acting as voice control hubs through Google Assistant, which will let you say, “Hey Google, turn off the living room lights.”

Industrial America’s place at the pinnacle of world production was appropriate in every sense.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Both of these models, the Robot Vacuum X20 Max and the S40, offer great cleaning along with advanced mapping and scheduling. Integration with Xiaomi Home allows you to automate cleaning sessions when everyone leaves the house.

Smart Camera C500 Pro

Equipped with 3K resolution, HDR, and a physical privacy shield, this camera delivers both clarity and safety.

Smart Doorbell 3

It offers 2K video capture, AI human detection, and up to 72 hours of free cloud storage, which is controllable via the Xiaomi Home app.

Xiaomi is officially returning to Paris with its first directly operated Xiaomi Home store, marking a major step in the brand’s European expansion. As announced by Xiaomi France Deputy Country Manager Product Yifei on November 11, the store will open soon in the heart of Paris. The new outlet differs from previous franchise-operated stores as it will be managed directly by Xiaomi, ensuring a unified retail experience and better after-sales services for customers.

From Authorized Stores to Direct Operations

In response to questions from local fans about the earlier Paris location, Yifei clarified that the previous Xiaomi store on Xiangjie Street was a client-operated franchise, which had to shut down temporarily during the pandemic. This new store represents a shift in strategy, highlighting Xiaomi’s focus on direct operations to strengthen brand presence and maintain quality consistency across all customer touchpoints.

Strengthening Xiaomi’s Global Retail Network

This move aligns with Xiaomi’s ongoing global retail expansion strategy. Earlier this year, the company opened its first directly operated store in Japan, located at AEON Mall Urawa-Misono in Saitama City, followed by another one at AEON Mall Kawaguchi. Xiaomi also opened its first store in South Korea on June 28, located at the IFC Mall in Yeouido, Seoul, offering a complete range of Xiaomi products — from smartphones and tablets to home appliances and IoT devices — in an experiential format.

These openings highlight Xiaomi’s plan to establish a consistent global retail experience, expanding its brand influence beyond Asia and into key European and global markets.

Xiaomi’s History in France

Xiaomi first entered the French market in May 2018, when it launched its first authorized store on Boulevard Sébastopol in Paris. At that time, the company also introduced the Xiaomi MIX 2S, Redmi Note 5, and popular ecosystem products like the Xiaomi Electric Scooter. The expansion was supported by major French retail partners such as FNAC, DARTY, and Carrefour, helping Xiaomi bring its innovative and affordable technology to more users across France.

Now, with a directly operated Xiaomi Home returning to Paris, the company is reinforcing its long-term commitment to the French and wider European markets.

As long as I can remember, my apartment has been a sort of silent war zone for myself and my loved ones, with dust, odor, and allergens. Despite my personal best efforts to keep everything spick and span, it is clear that I have been fighting a losing battle with undetectable particles in the air. All these reasons prompted me to put my Xiaomi Smart Air Cleaner 4 Pro to test for 30 days. Economically priced models such as 4 Lite and 4 Compact by this popular brand cost below $100.

First Impressions: Design, Setup, and Smart Features

The design is sleek and contemporary with a minimalist aesthetic and a 360-degree intake fan that can be easily incorporated with any decor. The installation process only required about two minutes via the Mi Home app, which allows one to monitor and control air quality and fan speed, ionization, and scheduling.

It is interesting to note that this app is not merely a complement but a companion app. Functions such as screen brightness and ionizer function control cannot be done without it. Those who purchase this innovative product will thus be part of a broader smart ecosystem created by this technology giant called Xiaomi.

The Results: Dust, Odors, and Allergy Solutions

During this 30-day test period, I put the 4 Pro up against three common home problems: odor, dust, and allergies. Odor Control The cooking smells decreased significantly. The purifier’s PM2.5/PM10 sensors sensed and responded to all changes instantly, and the 3-in-1 activated carbon filter eliminated smells in 30 minutes. Allergy Reduction Being a TÜV Rheinland Allergy Care Certified device, this purifier is especially geared towards targeting micro-particles like pollen and dander. I have found relief in congestion issues in a matter of weeks, which is a claim made by several Xiaomi users, who have found this purifier to be a “life changer for all those with allergies.”

Dust Reduction

Although it did work well to purify airborne dust, it is not entirely necessary because, according to specialists, only what is floating in the air will be trapped by purifiers.

Measuring Performance and Energy Efficiency

The Purifier 4 Pro has a Particle CADR of 500 m³/h, cleaning a 40 m² (430 sq. ft.) area in under 15 minutes. According to independent testing, with all models, including even the smallest 4 Lite, it is proven to increase air quality by 95% in smaller rooms. The 4 Pro’s dual PM2.5/PM10 laser sensor enables it to distinguish between various pollutants such as smoke and pollen.

Its energy usage is remarkably low. Its 33W motor is quietly working with little energy even when it’s used for 24 hours non-stop.

The Drawbacks: Auto Mode and Filter Availability

Despite the intentions of Xiaomi’s Auto Mode to adjust fan speeds constantly, I found it to be a bit passive. At times, it would let air quality deteriorate before doing anything. Using custom schedules through Mi Home App worked much better. However, a more concerning issue presented itself: availability of filters. Many consumers struggle finding a replacement filter for particular models, such as 4 Pro. Without these replacement filters, it would be difficult for consumers to have a functional purifier for extended periods.

An Excellent Product with One Critical Fault

After 30 days, I can say without a doubt that there was a difference in air quality. The air in my home even smelled cleaner, and my allergies have disappeared. The Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4 Pro is on par with brands such as Dyson and Coway — but it is cost-effective. However, it is necessary to verify availability of spare filters locally prior to purchase. Without these, even the best offering from Xiaomi is impossible to sustain.

If you have a means where you can source good filters, then without a doubt, one of the best value-for-money air purifiers out there is the Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4 Pro.

The much-awaited Xiaomi Water Leak Detector 2 is finally on sale in China, with a price tag of 69 yuan (approximately $9.50). After gaining popularity via a crowdfunding campaign on the Xiaomi Youpin platform, this advanced leak detector is now up for purchase on popular e-commerce sites. Created for multiple-scenario leak detection purposes, this second-generation leak alarm improves home safety features and smart home experiences on the smart home system powered by Mi Home and Xiaomi HyperConnect.

Highly parameterized design for multiple scenario leakages

The newly-launched water sensor by Xiaomi comes with a dual-probe design placed on the underside, which allows it to detect even if the water is only 0.5mm deep. The detection process, which is done instantly, includes an immersion alarm system to avoid any serious damage arising from leaks. Its top water collection system includes a spray alarm if both sensors are immersed in water with conductivity.

This smart design will enable one to place this device in a kitchen, bathroom, basement, or even areas with household appliances, anywhere there might be some unknown water leakage.

Flexible Alarm Options for Instant Notification

The Xiaomi Water Leak Detector 2 comes with three intelligent alarm modes to ensure you do not miss any alert:

• Audible and visual alarm: An integral alarm buzzer and visual indicator warn all users immediately if immersion or spraying with water is detected.
• Smart App Alarm: Using Mi Home App, one can check remotely the water immersion status and even have notifications for alarms in real-time.
• Linked smart device alarm: If it is connected with other devices from Xiaomi such as speakers and/or lights, it allows consumers to initiate alarms.

Long Battery Life and Durable IP67 Rating

The power source for this device is CR2450 button battery, which offers battery life up to 3 years due to Xiaomi’s low power consumption technology. Additionally, it is dustproof and waterproof with IP67 rating, which allows it to function effectively even in environments with high humidity levels or dust.

Further, it is fully compatible with Xiaomi HyperConnect, offering automated interactions with smart home devices. The device can send notifications via Xiaomi Smart Speakers, and even turn off water valves if connected to appropriate devices.

A Small Device with Big Smart Home Impact

The Xiaomi Water Leak Detector 2 might be small in terms of design, but it makes a world of difference in terms of improved home safety and convenience. Its 3-year life span, smart alarm systems, and connectivity with all things smart from Xiaomi cannot be ignored.

The just-launched device from Xiaomi, dubbed the Smart Camera Video Call Version, also raises an obvious question: ”Do we really need the likes of this product?” The product, in essence, is intended for families, seniors, or kids and supports easy one-click video calls coupled with AI-based surveillance capabilities. There is a 3.5-inch screen, 4MP wide-angle lens, and infrared night vision functionality to help fill the communication gap between, or among, members of the same family, apart from the fact that the device also serves as a mini home assistant of sorts. The price tag is only 175 yuan or about 24 USD.

Designed for Families, Not Just Surveillance

Contrary to conventional security cameras, the Xiaomi Smart Camera Video Call Version prioritizes linking the human heart over just home or personal security. The device boasts the ability to initiate two-way video calls through the Mi Home app or WeChat platforms, which is extremely beneficial for alone seniors or parents who wish to monitor their children remotely. The presence of personal alarm notifications, photograph wallpapers, and current weather updates on the screen gives the impression that the device is emotional, or more of an emotional companion, aside from just an elegant camera.

Practical or Redundant?

The question then is, do we need the product? Well, that depends on how one looks at “smart living.” Those households already stocked with smartphones, tablets, and AI assistants will likely view the extra device with raised eyebrows. Yet, those consumers over the age of 65 who are struggling with complex interfaces will be well served by the easy one-button calling feature of the product, with its AI-driven person recognition, audio alert, and remote alerting capabilities providing even greater peace of mind for those separated by geographical distances with older children or older spouses, or those with older children who are

Moreover, once networked with HyperConnect, it is also capable of controlling other intelligent gadgets, switching off the lights, alerting others, or even starting an emergency call with the help of another connected Bluetooth Button. Not just another intelligent camera, it is now part of the entire network system.

A Niche but Meaningful Innovation

The Xiaomi Smart Camera Video Call Version may or may not appeal to all, but it definitely marks the way ahead for human-centered smart technology. This product focuses on the need for simplicity, universality, and emotional involvement, rather than just boasting about its capabilities. Although the tech-savviness of the device may go unnoticed by technology fanatics, any other family will surely value its design, which provides users with reliable communication and safety solutions.

“In today’s world, technology can seem so anonymous, but the newest gadget from the technology firm, Xiaomi, is a poignant reminder that sometimes the greatest technologies are the simplest, especially if those technologies help us connect with the people we love in the most basic way — with one click”
