In Q1 2025, the Group reported unaudited consolidated revenue of RMB111.3 billion\u2014a 47.4% year-over-year increase that beats market expectations. This milestone is especially notable because it marks the second consecutive quarter in which Xiaomi has surpassed the RMB100 billion revenue mark. Even more impressive is the adjusted net profit, which soared by 64.5% YoY to reach a record RMB10.7 billion. Such numbers signal not only solid execution but also the strength of Xiaomi\u2019s strategic direction as it moves deeper into 2025.<\/p>\n

For instance, its smartphone division advanced by 8.9% YoY to achieve RMB50.6 billion in revenue. Meanwhile, Xiaomi\u2019s IoT and lifestyle products segment surged an astonishing 58.7% YoY, reaching RMB32.3 billion. This impressive jump was bolstered by record shipments of home appliances like washing machines and refrigerators, while even air-conditioner sales defied market headwinds, growing over 65% YoY.

Notably, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, which was launched back in February, saw its sales grow by an impressive 90% compared to its predecessor in the same period.
