Xiaom’s new smart washer-dryer combo features electrolysis technology
Xiaomi has introduced a new household appliance that can wash and dry laundry in one go, allowing you to easily prepare large amounts of clothing for immediate use. Notably, the Mijia Washing Machine Pro Supreme Edition is also able to generate its own active cleaning agent.
Xiaomi already offers washer-dryers on the global market and is now adding another model to its product lineup. Equipped with electrolysis technology, the new Mijia Washing Machine Pro Supreme Edition can break down water into its chemical components – oxygen and hydrogen – though only a small fraction of water used in a wash cycle is converted. The resulting active oxygen is said to enhance cleaning performance. While the process isn’t new by any means, electrolysis does offer several advantages: It can clean laundry using just electrical energy and water already present in a cycle. In most cases, however, this electrolysis function is unlikely to fully replace detergent.
The Mijia Washing Machine Pro Supreme Edition is a washer-dryer combo, eliminating the need to transfer wet laundry from one appliance to another. Xiaomi claims a capacity of 13 kg for washing and 9 kg for drying – relatively large for this type of machine. A total of 31 washing programs are available, including a quick-wash cycle that promises thorough cleaning within 36 minutes. Drying is handled by a heat pump, which improves energy efficiency at the expense of speed. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Xiaomi washer-dryer combo is a smart home device capable of integrating into a smart home system, allowing control via a smartphone app and support for voice commands. The Mijia Washing Machine Pro Supreme Edition is currently listed in China at around $515 / €443 after currency conversion.
I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

After graduating with a bachelor’s degree in environmental engineering, I moved from Singapore to
Cologne in 2014 and began pursuing a career as a freelance translator. Much of my translation work
focuses on science, engineering and technology. My fascination with computers and mobile
electronics began when I was young. And I have fond memories reading countless tech and gaming
magazines. Working with Notebookcheck gives me the opportunity to incorporate my personal
interests into my professional work.
