Xiaomi’s $185 Smart Home Display 11 Challenges Premium Tablet Pricing With Hyperos in China

Meet the Xiaomi Smart Home Display, the gadget that just walked into the room, saw how much tablets were charging, and laughed—then dropped a power move at $185. This isn’t just another screen; it’s a full-blown smart device with ambitions way bigger than its price tag. Slap it on your kitchen counter and suddenly your toaster, lights, and AC are all whispering your schedule back to you.

It’s got an 11-inch FHD+ display, 400 nits of brightness—so yes, it survives sunbeams blasting through the window—and it even winks at your eyeballs politely, thanks to TUV Rheinland Eye Protection Certification. No dry eyes, no excuses.

The real flex? Xiaomi’s pricing strategy. While premium tablets float around $400 like they’re made of moon dust, this one kicks the door in at less than half that. It doesn’t pretend to replace your iPad for editing 4K videos, but for controlling your entire smart home, streaming YouTube recipes, or making video calls with Grandma? Absolutely nails it.

Xiaomi’s smart home display undercuts premium tablets by half, not to replace your iPad—but to run your home, stream recipes, and nail video calls, all for $185.

With 6GB RAM, 32GB storage, and an octa-core processor, it’s zippy enough to multitask like your over-caffeinated self on a Monday morning.

Running HyperOS, it plugs right into Xiaomi’s ecosystem—like a key turning in a well-oiled lock. The AI doesn’t just respond, it *gets* you. Ask it weird questions, use one of seven dialects, or just mumble at it half-awake, and it’ll still pull up the weather.

Need to dim the bedroom lights while lying flat on your back? Voice command, done. Similar to how Philips Hue lights can be controlled through voice commands with other smart assistants, this display gives you effortless lighting management. Want it to double as a digital photo frame? Sure, flex those vacation pics like a tiny gallery.

It’s a speaker, a video call station, an AI assistant, and your home’s command center—all for $185. Xiaomi isn’t just competing with tablets anymore. It’s flipping the script, making high-tech living accessible.

For less than what you’d spend on headphones, you get a hub that’s actually kind of genius. Smart home dreams just got a lot cheaper, and honestly, the tech world should be taking notes. It even supports cross-platform voice commands, so your smart home stays in sync no matter the device.

This device leverages SOUND BY Harman Kardon for an immersive audio experience, delivering crisp and rich sound whether you’re streaming music or taking calls.
