Xiaomi refreshed its corporate logo in 2021 and paired the new mark with a short sonic ident for video promos. The chime was designed to play at the start and end of official spots, giving the brand a consistent audio signature across launches and ads. Clips of the ident were soon uploaded to meme soundboards, where tech channels adopted it as a shorthand for Xiaomi-related content. It remains in use because it is instantly recognisable, clean-sounding and short enough to work as an intro or outro tag.
