Xiaomi Launches Mi Home Water Purifier 2 1600G With Smart Faucet and Reverse Osmosis Filtration
Xiaomi has introduced a new smart water purification system designed for modern kitchens. The Mi Home Water Purifier 2 1600G is built for households that want cleaner drinking water, convenient dispensing, and real-time water quality information in one integrated setup.
Unlike portable countertop purifiers, this new Xiaomi water purifier is intended to be installed directly into the kitchen. The system includes a concealed purification unit that can be placed inside a cabinet, along with a dedicated faucet for daily use. This design keeps the main hardware out of sight while giving users quick access to filtered water at the sink.
One of the standout features is the smart faucet. Instead of a basic tap, Xiaomi has equipped the faucet with touch controls and a built-in display. Users can select a specific amount of water with a simple tap, making it more convenient for filling cups, bottles, kettles, or cooking containers. The display also shows the water’s TDS level, giving users a quick look at the amount of dissolved solids in the water.
TDS, or total dissolved solids, is often used as a general indicator of water purity and filter performance. If the TDS reading rises noticeably, it may suggest that the filter is reaching the end of its useful life and should be replaced. This makes maintenance easier, especially for households that rely on purified water every day.
The Mi Home Water Purifier 2 1600G uses reverse osmosis technology, one of the most widely used methods for deep water filtration. Reverse osmosis works by pushing water through a very fine membrane, helping reduce a wide range of unwanted substances. This can include heavy metals, organic pollutants, dissolved impurities, and certain microorganisms.
While tap water in many regions is already considered safe to drink, a reverse osmosis water purifier can still improve overall water quality, especially in areas where taste, odor, or dissolved contaminants are a concern. For many users, the biggest everyday benefits may be cleaner-tasting water, reduced smell, and greater peace of mind.
Xiaomi says the purifier can deliver up to 4 liters of filtered water per minute, which is around 1 gallon per minute. That flow rate should be fast enough for common kitchen needs, including cooking, making drinks, and filling larger containers without long waiting times.
The replaceable filter is rated for up to 6,500 liters, or roughly 1,717 gallons, before it needs to be changed. This capacity makes the system suitable for regular household use, though actual filter life may vary depending on local water quality and daily consumption.
Another practical detail is the system’s low water retention design. According to Xiaomi, the purifier keeps only a small amount of water inside after use. This can help reduce the chance of microbial growth, supporting better hygiene and improved biological safety over time.
The Xiaomi Mi Home Water Purifier 2 1600G is currently available in China at a price of about $294 or €253 based on direct currency conversion. Xiaomi has not yet confirmed when the model will be released in other markets or what international pricing may look like.
With its cabinet-friendly design, smart faucet, real-time TDS display, reverse osmosis filtration, and high water output, the Mi Home Water Purifier 2 1600G adds another compelling option to Xiaomi’s growing smart home ecosystem. For households looking for a sleek under-sink water purifier with connected features, this new model could be worth watching if it becomes available globally.
