Have a Healthier Home with Xiaomi Smart Products

If there’s anything the Covid-19 pandemic has taught us, it is the importance of living a healthy lifestyle. From a healthy diet to regular exercise, and even making sure our homes are sanitized, the frequent quarantines have given us plenty of time to examine our lifestyles so we can be more fit and be more energized to face the stresses of the new normal.

To help us create a healthier home, global consumer electronics and smart manufacturing company Xiaomi has developed a suite of products designed to help improve our well-being during this critical time. Read on to find out the different ways we can improve our health with Xiaomi’s smart and cost-efficient tech products!

 


Breathe Healthy

With many Filipinos being asked to stay indoors to help prevent the spread of the virus, it is important to make sure that the air one breathes is free from germs. An air purifier would definitely be a smart home investment at this point and the Mi Air Purifier 3H (PHP 8,490) comes with the latest technology to help purify the air inside one’s home.

Among its features are a high-precision laser PM sensor that detects microscopic particulates and reports changes in room air quality in real time and an integrated 360 degree 3-layer filter. The first layer removes hair, dust, cotton fibers and other large particles. The second layer consists of a premium High Efficiency filter that effectively eliminates 99.97% of bacteria, viruses, cigarette smoke, PM2.5, pollen, dust, pet dander, and other allergens as small as 0.3 microns from the air while the third layer is an active carbon filter that absorbs formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other harmful gases.

Perfect for medium and large rooms, it can effectively 6,330 liters of purified air per minute in 21-37 sq. meter room. It’s also easy to use with an OLED Touch Display so owners can switch to the mode they need (Sleep, Auto, Favorite, Low, Medium and High level) and also comes with APP+AI smart voice control by linking it to your Google Home, allowing you to keep track of air quality in your home at all times and access it remotely.

Eat Healthy

 


Another important aspect of overall wellness is making sure what you put on your plate is good for one’s body. Aside from switching to leaner proteins and eating green, changing to healthier food preparation is another way to maximize the vitamins in one’s food. 

Enter the Mi Air Fryer 3.5L (PHP 2,990), which makes it easier to cook healthy by lessening the oil and fat during food prep. It comes with 360° heated air circulation for delicious food that is low in fat and cooks quickly – and if one wants to check on the cooking, simply pull out the basket to pause and one can monitor the cooking status of one’s dish. The smart functions also make this a great option for busy moms and dads as one can pre-set the fryer and have a hot meal waiting for the family when one gets home. Cleaning is a breeze as the air fryer is wear resistant and has a non-stick surface.

The Mi Air Fryer is a great value because it is so multifunctional – it also works as a yogurt maker, fruit dryer and can even stand in as a microwave oven and electric oven.

The Mi Band 6 comes with a long-lasting125mAh battery and magnetic charging. It fully charges in only 2 hours with convenient USB magnetic charging that snaps securely on or off and offers long lasting battery life with up to 14 days of standby time.
