Xiaomi Launches Air Purifier 3 As Pollution Soars In India

Xiaomi on Wednesday launched the new Mi Air Purifier 3, the successor to Mi Air Purifier 2S in India. This is Xiaomi’s 2nd air purifier launch this season. With most of north India gasping for clean air, the launch seems to be well timed.

A replacement filter costs Rs 2,199.

The Mi Air Purifier 3 has a touch-enabled OLED display that shows AQI data in real-time. It has a CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) of 380 cubic meter per hour and can deliver 6,333 liters of purified air every minute with a coverage area of up to 484 square feet.
