“Smart Home”: A New Trend in Home Furnishings

Driven by the development of technologies such as 5G and artificial intelligence, "whole-home intelligence" has emerged as a new trend in home consumption among young people. The smart home industry is evolving from "standalone smart devices" to "whole-home intelligence," presenting vast market prospects; my country is currently home to over 118,000 smart home-related enterprises.

In recent years, the rapid development of technology has profoundly changed people’s lifestyles, especially in the home furnishing sector. “Whole-house intelligence” is gradually replacing “single-product intelligence,” becoming a new consumer trend pursued by young people. With the continuous advancement of cutting-edge technologies such as 5G and artificial intelligence, smart devices are flooding into households, creating more convenient, comfortable, and personalized living environments.

Young people’s enthusiasm for smart home appliances is surging, and their consumption concepts have also undergone significant changes. Data from the “2025 Young People’s Smart Living Trends White Paper” reveals this phenomenon: consumers under 35 years old account for nearly 60% of the smart home consumer group. This large young consumer group pays more attention to the novelty and fun of products and value for money; they are willing to pay for a better user experience.

</ … For them, smart homes are not just a tool for daily life, but also a reflection of a fashionable lifestyle. The smart home industry is undergoing rapid evolution, moving from traditional "single-product intelligence" to the more advanced "whole-house intelligence." In the "whole-house intelligence" model, device interconnection becomes the core operation. Various smart devices are no longer isolated individuals, but rather form an organic whole through network connections, achieving information sharing and collaborative work. For example, when you enter your home, the lights automatically turn on, the air conditioner adjusts to your preset temperature, and the curtains slowly open. This seamless smart experience makes life more relaxed and comfortable. Meanwhile, policies such as trade-in programs for old consumer goods have also injected strong vitality into the smart home market. In 2025, the number of home appliances traded in exceeded 129 million, a figure that fully demonstrates the stimulating effect of policies on the market. Encouraged by these policies, consumers are more willing to replace their old appliances with smart appliances, thus driving the rapid development of the smart home market. From a corporate perspective, data from Tianyancha Professional Edition shows that as of now, there are over 118,000 existing or active smart home-related companies in my country. This large number of companies reflects the enormous potential and attractiveness of the smart home market. In terms of regional distribution, Guangdong Province holds a leading position in the smart home field, ranking first nationwide with over 35,000 related companies, accounting for 30% of the national total. Following closely are Jiangsu, Shandong, Zhejiang, and Anhui provinces. These regions, leveraging their industrial, technological, and talent advantages, have become important clusters of the smart home industry. "Whole-house intelligence" has become a new trend in home consumption, not only satisfying people's pursuit of a high-quality life but also bringing unprecedented development opportunities to the smart home industry. With continuous technological innovation and market expansion, it is believed that "whole-house intelligence" will occupy an even more important position in the future home furnishing market, bringing more surprises and convenience to people's lives.
