Xiaomi has released a new smart kitchen appliance in China. The Mijia Smart Pressure Cooker 2 Pro is a 5-liter cooker priced at 899 yuan ($132). This appliance focuses on faster heating times, quicker depressurization, and separating meal types with a two-pot system.
Mijia Smart Pressure Cooker 2 Pro Specifications
The cooker features a 2200W induction heating (IH) system as its primary technical upgrade, designed to heat the pot more evenly and bring liquids to a boil significantly faster than standard 1000W hot-plate models. Operating at a high pressure of 112kPa, it drives internal temperatures up to 120°C.
According to Xiaomi, this enhanced pressure cuts the cooking time for tough meats, such as beef or ribs, down to just 15 minutes, an estimated 40% reduction compared to older 70kPa models. Additionally, it incorporates a stepless pressure adjustment system that automatically customizes the pressure curve to suit the specific ingredients being cooked.
The cooker ships with a 304 stainless steel pot intended for tasks like stewing meats, making soup, and open-lid cooking. It also includes a fluorine-free ceramic-coated pot specifically for rice, porridge, and desserts. The ceramic pot meets Class II non-stick standards, and the dual-pot approach is a practical way to prevent flavor transfer between meals. Given the 5-liter capacity, either pot can handle substantial portions, such as 20 bowls of rice or roughly 2.5 kilograms of beef in a single session.
Pressure cookers usually take a long time to depressurize before you can safely open them. To address this, the Mijia 2 Pro uses an automatic air-cooling exhaust system that can release pressure and let you open the lid in as little as 88 seconds. It also includes 18 safety mechanisms, such as overpressure protection, temperature limits, and lid-opening locks.
The cooker has a tempered glass control panel with a small display and supports 10 cooking modes. This includes an open-lid option, allowing you to use it like a hotpot or reduce sauces at the end of a cook.
It connects to the Mijia app and Xiaomi’s HyperOS, allowing users to schedule meals up to 24 hours in advance, adjust texture settings (chewy, balanced, or soft), and access a library of over 100 cloud recipes. It also supports XiaoAI voice commands for checking on the cooking progress. Xiaomi is backing the main unit with a three-year warranty.
In related news, Xiaomi has recently launched a new cordless vacuum with 230AW suction and a self-emptying dock, alongside a portable coffee machine capable of brewing up to 400 cups on a single charge.
