The air with breathe at home can sometimes be of a worst quality than the air we breathe outdoors. That's usually because of the common allergens and harmful particles that can potentially be floating around and carried by the air in our homes. However, by getting a reliable air purifier equipped with a True HEPA Filter, any concerned homeowner is able to have those same air pollutants and contaminants filtered out of the air they breathe at home. Overall, these air-filtration gizmos can help you clean the air at home by accurately filtering it to ultimately reduce the amount of airborne contaminants and allergens present in the air, such as mold spores, pollen, dust mites, smoke from cigars, and pet hair / pet dander. So, for anyone that's looking to improve their air quality at home, we have the newly released Smartmi Air Purfier P1.
The Smartmi Air Purfier P1 is a Smart-Home compatible air purifier that features a 99.9% Filtration Rate, Auto Allergen Detection and the astonishing capability of achieving a 250m³/h CADR air-purification within 200 sq. ft. in just 10 minutes, as well as seamless compatibility with all three major smart home systems (Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, and The Google Assistant).
Featuring one of the best air-filtration ratings you'll ever see and coming at a very affordable price, the Air Purfier P1 is one of the best smart air purifiers that are currently available for purchasing for any concerned homeowner to go with during 2021.
Best of all, by using its Smartphone Companion App (called the Smartmi Link APP), you can control the air purifier's air-filtration settings straight from your Smartphone, which basically allows you to stay focused on any task you might already have at hand, whether you're relaxing or trying to finish some work tasks at your home office.
So, without further ado, let's dive into our deep and fully-detailed review of the Air Purfier P1, where we crack-open the hoodie on this smart air purifier and check out every single one of its capabilities, so that you ultimately know about everything that this "little fellow" has to offer you.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with the air purifier's size, the Air Purfier P1 comes at a very compact size, measuring just 8.66 inches in diameter by 14.27 inches tall. Thanks to its cylindrical design, this air purifier is perfectly capable of accurately capturing harmful airborne pollutants from literally every angle, working seamlessly in 360º total and leaving any unwanted particles in the air with no way to escape in the room.
Furthermore, this air purifier also features a very minimalist and sleek design, portraying a beautiful and very discrete black body (or white - depending on what color model you choose) with a slight glossy finish, while also integrating a built-in Carrying Handle (located at the top) that makes it super-easy for you to move it around within your home from one room to another.
Moving on to its internal components. Starting of with one of the greatest things about the Air Purfier P1, we have is its high-end filtration system.
The air purifier's air filter basically consists of a unique 4-Layers Filtration System that, in order, combines a Pre-Filter Screen, followed by a H13 True Hepa Filter, a Carbon-Infused Filter, and a Reinforced Wire Frame.
Ultimately, its unique 4-Layers Filtration System is exactly what allows this powerful air purifier to ultimately break down and trap any air pollutants measuring all the way down to 0.08µm (80-90 nano) with a 99.97% Filtration Rate, whether those are allergens or other harmful particles. Overall, the Air Purfier P1 is capable of greatly reducing the amount of airborne contaminants and allergens present in the air, and that includes mold spores, pollen, dust mites, smoke from cigars, and pet hair / pet dander.
In fact, its high-end filtration system also makes this air purifier up to three (x3) times more effective than any of your traditional HEPA air purifiers / filtration systems that you can currently find available on the market, all without emitting any Ozone at all (unlike many air purifiers that come equipped with built-in UV-C lights).
Keep in mind that this air purifier already comes equipped with a removable particle filter (meaning its high-end filtration system) by default, which ultimately makes it fairly easy for you to remove and replace it (as well as to install a new filter) by simply following a one-step process.
That said, when the time comes for you to replace its pre-installed particle filter, know that you can choose from two different types of filters: you can go with either a Replacement Particle Filter (ASIN: B08Y5HL3QD) or alternatively, with a Replacement Odor Filter (ASIN: B08Y1F6YC7). According to the company, if you're looking to get a higher efficiency for the air purifier's air-filtration capabilities, it is recommended that you replace the unit's particle filter every six months.
When that time does come, all you have to do is gently turn and twitch the filter's grip-handle, remove the filter, and then carefully place your replacement filter within the unit's respective slot, and finish by twisting back in the opposite direction while securely grabbing the new filter's grip-handle.
It's also important to mention that only the unit's Replacement Odor Filter variation integrates a Carbon-Infused Filter for the air purifier's 4-Layers Filtration System. So, in other words, if you decide to get a replacement particle filter, know that you'll only be getting a 3-Layers Filtration System (Pre-Filter Screen, H13 True Hepa Filter, and Reinforced Wire Frame) for the air purifier.
As mentioned before, the Smartmi Air Purfier P1 also has the capability of achieving a 250m³/h CADR air-purification within 200 sq. ft. in just 10 minutes, which not only makes it quite powerful, but also gives it a fairly small footprint.
That basically means that this powerful air purifier unit can ultimately have the air in your room cleaned around 6 times within just 1 hour, and ultimately, the unit can cover up to 320 sq. ft. while operating at its maximum settings.
Additionally, it's equally important to note that this Smart Home air purifier was specially designed for sensitive people, and as such, it comes equipped with built-in PM2.5 PM10 Dual Laser Particle Sensors that allow it to automatically detect in real time both pollen and several other harmful particles in the air.
As such, you can have this smart air purifier running in "Auto Mode", for which the Smartmi P1 will then adjust its fan speed according to the real-time air quality.
Lastly, it's also worth to mention that this air purifier also comes equipped with a whisper-quiet motor that operates at a very low noise-level of just 19 dB (or at just 49 dB when used at its highest fan-speed settings).
INTERFACE / CONTROL PANEL
To control and regulate the Air Purifier's filtration settings, we have its integrated Control Panel, which basically consists of a built-in LED touchscreen Display, for which can be found right at the top-side of the air purifier's body.
Via this simplified Interface, users can check the air purifier's current air quality in its current room in real time, and ultimately, this one-touch display Interface makes very easy to operate / control and adjust the air purifier's different settings.
At the top of its built-in LED touchscreen Display, we have a Air Pollutant Symbol that basically helps to keep users informed about the current air-quality (via its previously mentioned Dual Laser Particle Sensors), more specifically regarding the presence of air pollutants in the air (like Pollen for example).
The way this works is via 4 simple colors (Green, Yellow, Orange, and Red), which help to qualify the presence of air pollutants in the air, going from Good (represented by Green) all the way down to Bad (represented by Red).
The right side button also allows you to swap between the air purifier's four (x4) different Airflow Options, which you can use to quickly adjust the unit's different settings (like its fan speed) to better purify the air quality.
CONNECTIVITY
Since the Smartmi Air Purfier P1 works together with its very own Smartphone App (which we'll discuss in more detail right ahead), this air purifier also features Wi-Fi connectivity (2.4 GHz Wi-Fi).
THE SMARTPHONE COMPANION APP - The Smartmi Link APP
As mentioned before, you can also use the Smartmi Link APP to more easily control the air purifier's air-filtration settings, for which its App is available to download for free for both iOS and Android devices.
Additionally, within the Smartmi Link APP, users are also able of accurately keeping track of the air purifier's filter status at any given moment.
NOTABLE SMART FEATURES
Auto-Detect Mode
As mentioned earlier, the Air Purfier P1 also features an Auto Allergen Detection functionality for its Auto-Operation Mode, which works based on its built-in PM2.5 PM10 Dual Laser Particle Sensors.
Thanks to these high-end sensors, the air purifier is capable of automatically adjusting its fan speed after detecting harmful particles in the air, and this Auto Mode seamlessly works according to the real-time air quality. To put it simply, when the air quality is worst, the unit works with higher fan-speed settings to accurately filter the air within your home, and contrarily to that, as soon as the air quality within the room improves, the unit slows down its fan-speed settings.
Smart-Home Compatibility
Another awesome thing about the Air Purfier P1 is that this smart air purifier also features seamless compatibility with all three major smart home systems, thus supporting Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, and The Google Assistant.
Thanks to that, you can easily control its screen light, choose its operating mode, and even check its filter, all by simply using your voice via your Smart Home's currently supported Voice Assistant.
FINAL THOUGHTS
The Smartmi Air Purfier P1 is a Smart-Home compatible air purifier that features a 99.9% Filtration Rate, Auto Allergen Detection and the astonishing capability of achieving a 250m³/h CADR air-purification within 200 sq. ft. in just 10 minutes, as well as seamless compatibility with all three major smart home systems (Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, and The Google Assistant).
Overall, this Smart-Home compatible air purifier is fairly easy to use and really does the job at keeping the air in your home perfectly clean, ultra-fresh and most importantly, safe to breath. That said, if you're looking for a new air purifier for your home, then I can safely tell you that you can trust the Smartmi Air Purfier P1 to get the job done.
As mentioned before, the Air Purfier P1 is currently available in two (x2) different color models: Full-White and Full-Black.
