Xiaomi has officially introduced its Mijia smart home brand in India, marking a strategic move beyond its smartphone roots. The launch coincides with the company’s 12th anniversary in the market and positions Mijia as the fourth sub-brand under the Xiaomi Group umbrella, joining Xiaomi (premium), Redmi (mid-range smartphones), and Poco (digital-native products).
Mijia, which translates to “Xiaomi home,” will serve as the dedicated brand for connected home and lifestyle products. According to Sudhin Mathur, COO of Xiaomi India, the brand will cover a range of devices including smart air purifiers, security cameras, robot vacuum cleaners, and other appliances designed to simplify everyday life. Xiaomi already sells many of these products in India, but consolidating them under the Mijia name aims to create a stronger identity in the smart home space and make it easier for consumers to recognize compatible devices within Xiaomi’s ecosystem.
India’s smart home market is growing increasingly competitive, with established players like Samsung, LG, Amazon, and Google already offering connected home devices. By introducing Mijia, Xiaomi seeks to capture a larger share of this market through competitive pricing and a comprehensive ecosystem of interoperable products. For consumers, the move promises more choices and better value, as smart home technology transitions from premium gadgets to mainstream household essentials.
