Xiaomi broadens its smart home offerings through the introduction of state-of-the-art robotic vacuum cleaners.
Xiaomi, the Chinese tech giant, has made a splash in Singapore with the launch of its latest robot vacuums, the H40 and S40. These innovative devices, equipped with both vacuuming and mopping capabilities, are now available in the island nation.
The Xiaomi S40, priced at S$229/US$180/£130-ish, boasts a 5200mAh battery, an LDS smart navigation system, and a compact dust bin of 520ml and water tank of 270ml. On the other hand, the H40, priced at S$319/US$219 - or just over £150 - comes with a larger 4-litre dust bin and similar features, including the 10,000Pa suction power and mopping capabilities.
Both models are designed for efficient cleaning, with the S40 featuring Xiaomi's anti-tangle magic and an LDS (laser distance sensor) system. The H40, meanwhile, boasts a five-stage anti-tangle system and an LDS smart navigation system.
While these new robot vacuums have found a home in Singapore, their availability in other countries, such as Europe and the US, remains uncertain. Xiaomi already sells other wet-dry vacuum models in Europe, but the H40 and S40 are not yet among them. The company's official EU Declaration of Conformity lists the Xiaomi Robot Vacuum S40 model, which may indicate some regulatory approval, but no confirmed sales start date for Europe was found. As for the US, there is no information indicating a launch or availability of these specific Xiaomi models as of now.
The listing of the H40 and S40 on Xiaomi's global website is a positive sign for potential international releases. However, as of July 2025, these models are not officially on the market in Europe or the US.
In addition to these new robot vacuums, Xiaomi has been launching a variety of new smart home products, including compact washer-dryers and indoor air conditioning units. When deciding between the H40 and S40, consider the size of your home and the frequency of use. The S40 is more affordable and has a smaller capacity compared to the H40, making it a suitable choice for smaller homes or less frequent cleaning needs.
In conclusion, Xiaomi's new robot vacuums, the H40 and S40, are now available in Singapore. While their availability in other countries is yet to be confirmed, their listing on Xiaomi's global website suggests a possible international release in the future. Stay tuned for updates on the European and US launches of these innovative devices.
These smart-home devices, the Xiaomi H40 and S40 robot vacuums, are now available for purchase in Singapore. With advanced gadgets such as LDS smart navigation systems and anti-tangle systems, these devices represent the latest in technology, setting a new standard for efficient cleaning in smart-home environments.
