Would You Trust Xiaomi With An Air Purifier?

The Chinese brand is gearing-up to launch its first smart appliance in India.

 

Xiaomi, one of the biggest smart-ups in the world has been quite a success in India. It makes feature-packed sleek smartphones that become sluggish after a while, but considering its affordable pricing nobody complains. While us Indians relate Xiaomi to only phones, in its home company the brand produces rice cookers, electric bicycles, smart bulbs, TVs, robotic cleaner, air purifier, water purifier, and whatnot. Now it seems that the company is prepping to launch its first "smart" appliance in India.

Going by the hint dropped by Manu Jain, Head of Mi India, Xiaomi would be launching an air purifier on 21st of September. As you can see from the tweet below, he is emphasizing on the importance of the clean air:
 


India is likely to get the Mi Air Purifier 2, which was introduced in last November. According to Xiaomi, this purifier is smaller than a regular A4 size paper. Despite the compact size, the Mi Air Purifier 2 comes with 3-layer filter to remove impurities from the air. Xiaomi claims that the purifier has a CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) of 310m3/h. Other noteworthy features are built-in WiFi module and mobile app support.



In China, the Xiaomi Mi Air Purifier 2 is pegged at 699 Yuan (approx Rs 7000). So you can expect to be priced around Rs 10,000 in India. The product looks promising and Xiaomi has quite a following in mobile space. However, it will be interesting to see weather Indians will trust a Chinese brand with breathing air. Especially, when the European brand Philips have been selling similar devices in the country for years.
