Xiaomi has once again taken the top spot in the Chinese
smart camera market. For four years in a row, its cameras have led online sales across major retail sites.
This
result shows how strong the brand has become in home safety tools. It also shows how well Xiaomi understands what buyers want in this space.
Four years at the top
From 2021 to 2024, Xiaomi smart cameras ranked first in online sales share in China. This covers major sales sites such as Tmall, JD, and Suning. The data comes from RUNTO online sales tracking, which is widely used in the retail field.
Holding the top rank for one year is hard. Doing so for four years shows steady demand, not a short trend. Many brands enter the smart camera market each year, yet Xiaomi keeps its lead. This points to trust built over time, not just low price offers.
Online sales matter a lot in China. Many buyers research, compare, and buy home tools on these sites. A strong online lead means Xiaomi wins at both reach and choice.
Why buyers keep choosing Xiaomi
One reason for this long run is balance. Xiaomi cameras are priced for mass buyers but still offer solid build and clear image quality. This mix helps the brand reach homes in cities and smaller towns alike.
Ease of use also plays a role. Setup is simple, and daily use does not need deep skill. Buyers want tools that work fast and stay stable. Xiaomi seems to focus on that basic need.
The brand also fits well into a wider home setup. Many users already own Xiaomi routers, lights, or locks. Adding a camera feels natural, not forced. This link across home tools helps keep users in the same brand loop.
A wider push in home safety
Xiaomi success is not limited to cameras. Its smart door locks have also ranked first in China for five years in a row. Total lock shipments have passed eight million units. This shows a clear push into home safety as a whole.
By leading both cameras and locks, Xiaomi gains a strong place at the front door and inside the home. Few brands manage this level of reach in safety tools.
The four year camera lead suggests Xiaomi will not slow down soon. New models may come, but the core plan stays the same. Keep prices fair, keep use simple, and keep trust high.
For now, the numbers speak clearly. Xiaomi is not just part of the smart camera market in China. It is shaping it year after year.
