| Product | Filter | Filter Size |
| AVICHE C5 | Pre-filter, True HEPA and Active Carbon Filter |
24mmx24mmx34.3mm |
| Xiaomi 3H | Pre-filter, True HEPA and Active Carbon Filter |
20mmx20mmx29mm |
Both devices use 3-stage filtration, which is contained from a pre-filter, True HEPA filter, and an activated carbon filter. But under the same configuration, the filter size of AVICHE C5 is significantly larger than that of Xiaomi 3H, which means that it can filter more pollutants and service life will be longer
CADR is often used to indicate the purification efficiency of air purifiers. The higher the CADR value, the higher the purification efficiency of the purifier. In this regard, it is obvious that AVICHE C5(420 m³/h) is better.
| Product | CADR |
| AVICHE C5 | 420 m³/h |
| Xiaomi 3H | 380 m³/h |
3 Particle sensor
The Xiaomi air purifiers routinely leaves the air quality in the unsafe range,since it uses the less stringent Chinese scale. The Chinese standard, for example, classifies a PM2.5 concentration of 48 ug/m3 as good,but according to WHO, 48 ug/m3 is still meaningfully bad air with serious health consequences.
AVICHE C5 use the stricter US AQI benchmark for measuring air pollution. When PM2.5>10, it will continue to purify until the pollutants in the air are <10ug/m³.
| Product | Air quality indicator(PM2.5 ug/m³) |
| AVICHE C5 | 0-23(good) 35-75(medium) 75-115(unhealthy) >115(bad) |
| Xiaomi 3H | <75(good) 75-150(medium) >150(bad) |
4 Auto Mode
This is the option where both AVICHE C5 and Xiaomi Mi 3H unite. Based on the information that the Air Quality Indicator sends on whether and how clean the air is, the air purifier will be sped up or slowed down once it is in the Auto Mode.
An extra feature that AVICHE C5 can use to brag about is the ECO mode. The ECO mode constantly controls the air quality and if the PM2.5<10, it will switch to standby mode. But, even then the ECO feature keeps working in the background, and if the PM2.5>10, the AVICHE C5 gets back on track.

5 Smart Control
Whether you use Android or iOS, you can simply connect to the air purifier using the APP. AVICHE C5 uses the TUYA APP to control the machine and can operate a variety of advanced functions, such as setting the air purifier to automatically turn on when the PM2.5 exceeds a certain value.
In addition to APP control, AVICHE C5 and Xiaomi 3H also support more intelligent operations. Connect the purifier through ALEXA or Google assistant, and use the voice to control the purifier, which really frees your hands.
