| Xiaomi offers a new cleaning device |
Xiaomi has quietly expanded the reach of its latest cordless cleaning device, the Xiaomi Vacuum Cleaner G30 Max, now making it officially available to customers in the United States and Germany. Previously limited to select Asian markets, the G30 Max enters two of the world’s most competitive vacuum cleaner territories with a price tag that positions it firmly in the premium segment.
At €400 (approximately $324) , the G30 Max is relatively expensive for a handheld stick vacuum – especially coming from a brand best known for affordable smartphones and smart home gadgets. But Xiaomi isn’t hiding from that comparison. Instead, the company is leaning into performance metrics that put it head‑to‑head with established leaders like Dyson.
A Familiar Look With Visible Cyclones
At first glance, the G30 Max borrows heavily from Dyson’s design language. The visible cyclones – those translucent cones that separate dust from air through centrifugal force – are prominently displayed along the main unit. It’s a deliberate aesthetic choice that signals “serious engineering” to anyone who’s shopped for a high‑end cordless vacuum in recent years.
But Xiaomi adds its own twist. The multi‑stage filtration system is rated to capture 99.98% of fine dust particles – not just trapping them inside the bin but ensuring they aren’t blown back into the room. For allergy sufferers or anyone tired of that “dusty exhaust” smell from older vacuums, this is a meaningful upgrade. After all, a vacuum cleaner’s job is to remove dust, not recirculate it.
Raw Suction Power: 280 AirWatt and 25,000 Pa
Under the hood, the G30 Max delivers up to 280 AirWatt – a standard unit that measures real‑world cleaning performance. For context, many cordless vacuums in the $300‑$400 range hover between 150 and 220 AirWatt. Xiaomi also quotes 25,000 Pa of suction, which is the number you’ll see on spec sheets across Asia and Europe.
That level of suction is more than enough for hardwood floors, low‑pile carpets, and the inevitable pile of cereal your toddler “accidentally” spilled under the dining table. But raw power means little without runtime – and that’s where the G30 Max tries to stand out.
90‑Minute Runtime? Read the Fine Print
Xiaomi claims a maximum runtime of 90 minutes. That sounds almost too good to be true for a cordless stick vacuum, and in a way, it is. The 90‑minute figure applies only to energy‑saving mode when used with the 2‑in‑1 crevice brush – essentially the lightest possible load. You’d use that combination for dusting shelves, cleaning car interiors, or sucking cobwebs from corners.
Once you attach the electric floor brush (the motorized head you’ll use for daily floor cleaning), runtime drops to a maximum of 70 minutes. That’s still respectable – many rivals from well‑known brands top out at 40–60 minutes with a powered brush. But as always, real‑world runtime depends on floor type, suction mode, and how often the brush encounters resistance (thick carpets drain batteries faster).
Smart Auto Mode: Let the Vacuum Think for You
You don’t have to fiddle with buttons to match suction power to the task. The G30 Max includes an automatic cleaning mode that uses a built‑in dust sensor to continuously monitor how much debris is coming in. When the sensor detects a dirty patch, suction ramps up automatically; when the floor is clean, it dials back to save battery.
What’s clever is the visual feedback. The vacuum’s LED display changes color based on the level of dirt – green for clean, amber for moderate, red for heavy soiling. It’s a small touch, but it turns cleaning into a sort of gamified experience. You can see at a glance which spots need another pass.
The Vacuum Cleaner G30 Max can display the degree of soiling – and that live feedback is surprisingly useful when you’re tackling a whole house and want to be sure you didn’t miss anything.
Illuminated Floor Brush and a Pet Hair Solution
Dark corners under couches and beds are where dust bunnies multiply in secret. The G30 Max’s electric floor brush comes with a built‑in LED headlight that illuminates the floor ahead of you. It sounds gimmicky until you use it – then you realize how much dust you’ve been skipping simply because you couldn’t see it.
Pet owners, take note. Xiaomi includes a special brush attachment designed specifically for removing pet hair. Whether you have a shedding German Shepherd or a fluffy cat that treats your sofa as a fur factory, this brush is meant to lift embedded hair from upholstery and carpets without tangling around the roller. (Yes, that means less time with scissors, cutting hair off a brush bar.)
Where to Buy the Xiaomi Vacuum Cleaner G30 Max

The Bottom Line: Is the G30 Max Worth €400?
At $324 / €400, the Xiaomi Vacuum Cleaner G30 Max isn’t an impulse buy. That’s Dyson V8 / V12 territory, and Xiaomi knows it. What you’re getting for the money is a cordless vacuum with genuinely competitive suction (280AW), a best‑in‑class 70‑minute runtime with the powered brush, and smart features like the auto‑adjusting dust sensor that you usually only find on models costing $150 more.
The visible cyclones and LED display give it a modern, almost premium‑appliance feel. The pet hair tool and illuminated brush head address real‑world annoyances. And the 99.98% filtration means you’re not just moving dust around – you’re actually removing it.
If you’re already in the Xiaomi ecosystem (or simply want a Dyson‑alternative without the Dyson tax), the G30 Max deserves a close look. Just be aware that “90 minutes” is an ideal‑case number – but even 70 minutes with the floor brush is enough to clean a 2,000 sq ft home without rushing.
Availability now confirmed for US and Germany. Early reviews from Asian markets praise its build quality and battery life, with the only common critique being the lack of a wall‑mount battery charger in the box (you’ll need to buy a separate charging dock).
