Xiaomi’s first oil-free fryer, the Mi Air Fryer, without too much surprise, plays the card of connectivity with wifi and remote control, while presenting itself as an affordable alternative to models from sector specialists like Philips or Seb.
One of the rare oil-free fryers to have a screen, Xiaomi’s Mi Smart Air Fryer takes advantage of this to adopt a sleek design while offering a simple and intuitive interface. Added to this is a mobile application allowing not only to find recipe ideas, but also to follow the progress of cooking remotely using wifi. It’s a shame that the requested temperatures are not respected very well. Even more so than with other models, you will have to expect a few failed attempts before achieving — more or less — the expected results.
