As a domestic Internet company starting from smart phones, Xiaomi's current development scale is one of the few in China. After the launch of Xiaomi mobile phones, Xiaomi has also successively launched a series of supporting products, including mobile power, headsets, Bluetooth speakers, plus clothes, shoes, and then made a big move into the field of smart appliances, launching Xiaomi TV, Xiaomi boxes, Xiaomi air purifiers, and so on. Now let's experience their latest Xiaomi universal remote control!

Brief description behind the package
After unpacking
After unpacking, we can see a manual, a universal remote control body, and a USB cable. However, there is no power adapter. However, after our actual use, even if it is directly connected to the computer USB for power supply, it can work completely.

The bottom is marked with product information
The Xiaomi universal remote control uses a round cake design and a plastic shell. The front and side are polished and bright, the bottom is made of skin like material, and the bottom is equipped with a ring of anti-skid rubber. It has an attractive, delicious appearance and good feel.
Millet universal remote control weighs 133g, size 100x100x26 (mm), infrared frequency: 38KHz, wireless type supported: WIFI2.4GHz， Wireless standard IEEE 802.11 b/g/n. The Xiaomi universal remote control uses infrared ray to connect with electrical appliances, while the mobile phone is connected to the Xiaomi universal remote control through WIFI.
Xiaomi smart home app matched with Xiaomi universal remote control
Xiaomi universal remote control must be used with Xiaomi Smart Home App. We connect the millet universal remote control to the power supply, and then open the millet smart home app. We will find a device named 7a75 (millet universal remote control). After connecting, we will also select available WIFI for the millet universal remote control to connect, and then add the millet universal remote control for installation. At this time, our mobile phone can be connected to the millet universal remote control normally, However, if the WIFI environment is changed, you need to add a WIFI connection to the Xiaomi universal remote control again.
After connecting, we found that there are three ways to connect smart devices: copy to control, select remote control, and search model.
Add remote control
By adding a remote control, we can directly search the type of remote control and then add it. The device we add here is Xiaomi TV 2. After adding, the App will show the mode of remote control.
Copy remote control
Under Copy Remote Control, we first select the type and model of the remote control we want to copy, then click the analog remote control according to the prompt, and then click the real remote control again at the corresponding location. Repeat this step to successfully copy the remote control.
Search remote control
Under the search remote control, you can directly search the model of the appliance for pairing.
Xiaomi officially claims that it can support more than 6000 home appliance brands, store more than 250000 remote control data in the cloud, and support wireless transmission up to 20 meters. When I use an Android phone for remote control, I occasionally feel a slight delay in the keys, but on the whole, the experience is good and acceptable.
Although there has never been an amazing black technology on Xiaomi's products, with the characteristics of simplicity, ease of use, delicacy and low price, Xiaomi's products can quickly enter the market and sell well. The Xiaomi universal remote control, which was only 79 yuan in the crowd funding, undoubtedly lowered the lower limit of the remote control industry again. It is very practical and cheap. I understand all the reasons, but the question is whether it can be grabbed in the future?
