MWC 2026: Xiaomi introduces a new wave of "Human × Car × Home" driven by AI
With this ecosystem, Xiaomi demonstrates its transition from conceptual innovation to practical implementation, taking AI beyond the digital interface and into the everyday physical world.
With its return to the MWC 2026, the global leader in innovation and technology Xiaomi continues to demonstrate its intelligent ecosystem "Human × Car × Home" powered by artificial intelligence, highlighting how AI is being deeply integrated into large-scale real scenarios. With this ecosystem, Xiaomi exemplifies its transition from conceptual innovation to practical implementation, taking AI beyond the digital interface and into the everyday physical world.
"At Xiaomi, AI is designed to serve people in real life," asserted Angus Ng, Director of Communications at Xiaomi International. "Through our intelligent ecosystem Human × Car × Home powered by AI, we are extending intelligence beyond the screen and into daily life. This is Xiaomi's first step to bringing AI into the physical world, where technology becomes more intuitive, more connected, and naturally integrates into the way people live, move, and interact."
At MWC 2026, Xiaomi unveils a comprehensive portfolio that brings this ecosystem to life, led by the Xiaomi 17 Series and the Leica Leitzphone, both powered by Xiaomi and a reflection of deep collaboration with Leica in image and design. The ecosystem is further expanded with Xiaomi's latest AIoT devices, the Xiaomi Electric Scooter 6 Series, and a full line of Mijia smart appliances. In the field of mobility, Xiaomi underscores its growing ambitions in intelligent transportation with the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra, alongside the futuristic Xiaomi Vision GT, offering a glimpse into the future of the automotive industry.
The First Step of AI: From Screens to the Physical World
At MWC, Xiaomi unveiled its latest developments in artificial intelligence, marking a key moment in the evolution of AI from digital assistance to intelligence in the real world. Rather than limiting itself to isolated functions or screen interactions, Xiaomi accelerates the integration of AI into real-world environments through its smart ecosystem "Human × Car × Home", bringing intelligence closer to everyday life.
A fundamental milestone in this journey is Xiaomi Miloco (Xiaomi Local Copilot), a huge leap in intelligence applied to the home and the first real-world implementation of the foundational model developed by Xiaomi, Xiaomi MiMo. As a pioneering exploration in the industry on comprehensive home intelligence driven by large models, Xiaomi Miloco represents the shift from device-level smart functions to system-level intelligence throughout the home.
Xiaomi Miloco integrates advanced reasoning based on large models with multimodal perception and data analysis, allowing devices to intelligently interpret and respond to real contexts using vision and multimodal intelligence. Its collaborative edge-cloud architecture supports local data processing on the device, keeping sensitive information in the local environment to ensure user privacy and security.
By learning from the user's behavior in different home scenarios, Xiaomi Miloco can automatically adjust the lighting according to activities such as watching television, reading or using the smartphone; proactively detect domestic disorder and activate the robot vacuum cleaner; and dynamically regulate the indoor temperature by recognizing sleep states and comfort conditions. In addition, users can interact with the system through natural conversation, allowing complex tasks of the smart home and creative automations to be executed through AI reasoning, rather than manual rule-based configurations.

Beyond individual responses per device, Xiaomi Miloco enables more sophisticated intelligence among multiple devices. It can infer emotional context to play appropriate music through smart speakers, coordinate home lighting colors based on mood or scene, and even adapt ambient light based on visual elements in the surroundings, such as the color of flowers in a room. This marks a fundamental shift from rule-based automation towards conversational and proactive AI systems, transforming smart homes into living and responsive environments.
Outside the home, Xiaomi continues to expand its HyperAI ecosystem, seamlessly integrating AI capabilities into smartphones, vehicles, and intelligent home devices. Thanks to the collaboration with Google Gemini, Xiaomi HyperAI delivers system-level intelligence that operates consistently across devices, rather than fragmented app-level functions. This unified AI layer enables more natural interactions, smarter task execution, and smooth collaboration between teams, forming the basis of Xiaomi's multi-device experience.
Xiaomi also showcased new ways of AI interaction through hardware design innovations, including the Dynamic Back Display on the most recent Xiaomi 17 Pro and Xiaomi 17 Pro Max. Designed to allow a more intuitive and expressive AI interaction, the back display supports custom visuals, real-time previews of high-quality selfies captured with the main camera, and immersive gaming experiences on the back panel. By extending AI interaction beyond the front screen, Xiaomi redefines the way users interact with intelligence on their devices.
Xiaomi joins Leica to redefine the mobile image experience.
Xiaomi has traveled a sustainable path of exploration in mobile imaging, committed to providing refined and user-focused photographic experiences. Since the start of its strategic alliance with Leica in 2022, the company deepened its collaboration with the legendary camera manufacturer. In 2025, both companies announced a global update of their strategic cooperation in imaging, evolving from a successful joint R&D framework towards a new strategic model of co-creation, marking a decisive step in redefining the future of mobile photography through comprehensive collaboration.
At the MWC, Xiaomi introduced the Xiaomi 17 Ultra for global markets, the first flagship smartphone developed under this renewed alliance. The device incorporates a new generation optical system, including a 1-inch LOFIC main sensor and the first Leica APO certified optical zoom telephoto lens in the mobile industry, offering significant improvements in night-time photography, high contrast detail accuracy, and telephoto performance.
The Leica Leitzphone, powered by Xiaomi, is also on display, representing the most advanced level of collaboration to date. Designed in direct collaboration with the Leica design team, the device draws inspiration from the iconic Leica M series cameras. Its dual-tone back panel combines a leather-like textured finish and a matte surface, providing better grip and a distinctive design language inspired by professional cameras.
Promoting a New Stage of Smart Appliances Globally.
Xiaomi also presents its full portfolio of large smart appliances on the global stage, marking a key step in the international expansion of its smart living business. As part of its "Human × Car × Home" strategy, the company accelerates the global deployment of equipment such as air conditioners, refrigerators, and washing machines, transforming them from passive devices into intelligent terminals that understand, adapt to, and proactively support daily life.
Currently, Xiaomi's smart appliances are available in four main regions and 14 countries, allowing more users to experience a fully interconnected intelligent life ecosystem. Through AI-driven coordination between devices, Xiaomi provides a unified, people-centered experience, enhancing comfort, efficiency, and ease of use in different markets.
Building a More Responsible and Efficient Intelligent Ecosystem.
Sustainability is an integral and permanent commitment within Xiaomi's "Human × Car × Home" strategy. Beyond product innovation, the company is making progress in sustainability through smart manufacturing. The launch of Phase One of Xiaomi's Intelligent Appliance Factory in Wuhan marks an important milestone, becoming the company's third major intelligent production base, following its smartphone factory and its electric vehicle super plant.
Together, these facilities make up an integrated manufacturing system that encompasses smartphones, smart appliances, and smart vehicles, driven by automation, digitalization, and artificial intelligence.
These intelligent manufacturing systems strengthen Xiaomi's ability to improve resource efficiency, reduce waste, and decrease carbon intensity throughout the entire product life cycle, supporting large-scale sustainable growth. The company's progress has been globally recognized, including the improvement of its MSCI ESG rating to "A", as well as its inclusion in the Forbes China ESG 50 2025 list and in the World's Best Employers ranking, reaffirming its commitment to responsible innovation and long-term sustainability.
