Xiaomi plans to enter the global household appliance market this year to challenge Samsung and LG
At the MWC 2025 conference, Xiaomi announced plans to launch large household appliances to the international market later this year, including air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines and dryers. Some foreign media said that this move will allow Xiaomi to directly compete with home appliance giants such as Samsung and LG.
Although Xiaomi has not yet identified which countries will take the lead in ushering in these new products, it is initially speculated that European and Southeast Asian markets are likely to be the first targets. This expansion marks an important step in Xiaomi’s product diversification.
Xiaomi’s global launch of home appliances will provide consumers with more choices, and may also intensify market competition, prompting other brands to lower product prices or accelerate innovation. With its reputation of combining affordable prices with advanced features, Xiaomi is expected to become a strong competitor in the home appliance industry.
