Despite its fairly sleek looks, the first Mi Air Purifier still stood at 735mm tall, making it a bit too large and intrusive for the choosy home owner. Now, Xiaomi has rectified things with the Mi Air Purifier 2, a more efficient and quieter device that also takes up considerably less space.Well, it stands at 520mm tall now and its base takes up less space than a single sheet of A4 paper. The Mi Air Purifier 2 is still no midget, but it is definitely a lot easier on the eyes, and the home décor, now. Xiaomi says the more compact design is made possible by a new single-motor, dual-fan design, which has enabled it to shrink its dimensions by up to 40% over its predecessor. However, its smaller size means that the Mi Air Purifier 2 has had to take a slight performance hit compared to the predecessor's dual-motor design. Its Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR), or the amount of air it cleans per minute, is now 330m3/h in standard mode, compared to the 406m3/h on the larger model. Still, this can go up to 388m3/h in active mode and Xiaomi says it can filter the air in a 23m2 room in only 10 minutes.

In addition, the Mi Air Purifier 2 is reportedly quieter, operating at a whisper-quiet 30dB in night mode, and is also 58% more efficient than the original purifier. Its price has also come down, and it retails for just RMB699 (~S$155), compared to the RMB899 (~S$199) of the Mi Air Purifier. The filters are also sold separately, with the standard one costing RMB149 (~S$33) and an enhanced version costing RMB169 (~S$37). The Mi Air Purifier 2 will be available to buy from 10am onward on 27 November on Xiaomi's website. All set on buying a new air purifier?

(Express Photo by Sandeep Daundkar) Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Harshdeep Kamble told a delegation of the Maharashtra Paan Vyapari Mahasangh and Dnyaneshwari Pratishthan that an anti-tobacco campaign had been launched to look into the issue of ‘fair price’ hoardings, promoting the sale of loose cigarettes across the city. Pune Newsline had published a report ‘Across Pune, fair price hoardings promoting cigarette sales in shops’ on August 9.

The report had said that the paan shop owners were upset over the manner in which the hoardings had been prominently set up, promoting the illegal sale of loose cigarettes. “We met the FDA Commissioner and complained that tobacco manufacturers are threatening to sue us if we remove the hoardings,” Hemang Shah, technical advisor of the Maharashtra Paan Vyapari Mahasangh, told Pune Newsline. Shah, along with Rajabhau Pardeshi and Sharad More of Paan Vyapari Sangh, and Dr Sayalee Kulkarni and Dr Shubha Karandikar of Dnyaneshwari Pratishthan demanded that the hoardings be removed and urged FDA to take immediate action. Dr Kulkarni said that the Dnyaneshwari Pratishthan was leading a tobacco-free campaign across Maharashtra and pointed out that Schedule 1 of the amended Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act banned direct or indirect sale of tobacco. “These hoardings not only mention the price of each cigarette but also give the brand names. It is obvious that the tobacco manufacturing companies want to sell loose cigarettes,” said Dr Kulkarni.
