On September 7, 2026, Haier showcased its AI strategy achievements at the International Consumer Electronics Show (IFA 2026) in Berlin. Leveraging its global 10+N open innovation system and 28,000 R&D engineers, Haier has reengineered the smart home ecosystem through its own Uhome large model and ‘AI Eye’ technologies. It plans to invest no less than 100 billion yuan in R&D over the next five years for six industrial scenarios. Market validation shows that washing machines equipped with AI technology are priced at nearly 1,000 euros in Europe, with a price index exceeding 240, helping the Candy brand double its market share in the price range above 700 euros; the X11 model has helped increase the market share of wash-dry combo machines in Italy by more than 32%. Financial data shows that Haier’s smart home business overseas revenue increased by 8.3% in 2025, and the operating profit of its large HVAC business grew by 26.8% in the first half of 2026. Currently, Haier’s smart home has over 130 million registered users, with a total of 86.1 billion interactions throughout the year.
