Xiaomi’s home ecosystem is one of the elements that most differentiates this brand from its main rivals. Although in Europe there is not the same catalog as in China, you can buy a multitude of household appliances, such as air fryers, blenders or heaters.
One of the most demanded in recent days are the fans, because the heat has bequeathed Europe with force and because Xiaomi fans boast of being one of the quietestsomething almost indispensable if we want to use them in the summer while we take a nap or at night while we sleep.
Four different models of fans are currently sold in Europe, three standing and one tower type, with prices ranging from 79.99 to 139.99 dollars, although there are always offers. The latter has its own differences with the others, but the main thing is to know how to distinguish the important differences between the three models that share the same design, since the price can be almost double from one model to another.
What they have in common
All these fans share things. To start, the design is well studiedand they fit perfectly in almost any room in any home. Standing models have two heights, configurable, depending on whether you want to use them on the floor or above a piece of furniture. To change the height, a fixed extension will be used, so the height cannot be changed instantly, as happens in other models of other brands.
Moreover, the four models are compatible with Amazon and Google Assistants, which allows you to activate and deactivate them by voice, as well as being able to perform other actions on the more expensive models. As if that were not enough, they are all controlled from Mi Home, Xiaomi’s home automation appwhich allows the use of presence sensors to automatically turn fans on and off.
In addition to these forms of control, they all have buttons on the top to control them without depending on mobiles or external accessories. These buttons also allow you to switch between different air modes for each fan, etc.
Differences between models
But, as is logical, the four models have differences between them, which explains the price. He Smart Tower Fan ($129.99) boasts of having a variable frequency DC motor, which produces less noise, more stability and energy saving. But the main difference is its more compact tower shape, which also allows a greater angle of rotation, up to 150º. This model boasts of spending very little energy, which is appreciated in a product that will stay on for a long time.
The cheapest model is the Mi Smart 2 Lite Stand Fan (79.99$), which can be found at 49.90 dollars on occasions. This one has only three levels of breeze while the others have a much larger grain of air, being able to reach 100 different levels. The rotation range of this model is 90º, and it consumes more energy than the rest of the fans and, being silent, it is not as quiet as the others.
Another option is the Mi Smart 2 Pedestal Fan (99.99$), a model that went through our analysis table a few weeks ago, with great success. This option improves the previous one in the angle of rotation, up to 140 degrees, in the power levels, by 100 positions, in that it spends less energy in its operation and in having more control options vocal. It has a double blade system and a DC motor.
The most powerful option is Mi smart Standing Fan 2 Pro (139.99$), which is essentially the same model as the previous one, but with one key advantage: it can be used without a connection to the wall. This is due to the fact has a built-in battery which can give up to 18 hours of autonomy, depending on the power and speed we choose. The battery is charged using a magnetic charger, so all you have to do is place the fan on its base, as you do with vacuum cleaners, and we’ll be charging it in no time.
In short, if you are looking for a tower type model, you should buy the Smart tower fan; If we want a powerful and silent fan that does not consume a lot of energy, the Mi Smart 2 Pedestal Fan; if we need it to be current independent, the Mi Smart 2 Pro Standing Fan, and if you are looking for the most economical, at the cost of sacrificing a little consumption and certain functions such as the angle of rotation or the level of intensity, the Mi Smart 2 Lite Stand Fan.
Where can I buy them?
These fans can be purchased both in online stores such as PCComponentes or Amazon and on the Xiaomi website itself. It is true that there are promotions in each of themand that is why it is good to compare each of the stores, as well as each of the models.
