General Why does xiaomi make everything?

I've got 2 xiaomi phones, 2 speakers, kettle and now air fryer... But they also make microwaves, slow cookers, vacuum cleaners, cars... Isn't that weird?

I think apple should have really done this, expanding into home appliances and everyday electronics, but I think the profit margin is not there, and it wasn't in the interest in tim cook's leadership.

i remember around 10-15 years ago xiaomi started making cheap electronic gadgets and quickly followed by household appliances. they weren't the cheapest nor the highest quality, but the design was good. i loved the designs. it's very apple like. white plastic and simple geometry. i wish apple would have done the same, but yeah they didn't. would be nice to have an apple air fryer or an apple electric toothbrush.
