Gen-Z consumer psychology

Xiaomi launched a summer campaign distributing 600,000 “Visionary Personality Popsicles” with QR codes for fridge giveaways. The wrappers link traits like “embracing freshness” and “emotional stability” to its refrigerators’ tech features, blending experiential branding with Gen-Z appeal. Analysts note it converts technical specs into viral, relatable narratives, boosting store traffic by 40-60% through gamified scans offering product recommendations. The strategy avoids discounts, instead positioning appliances as lifestyle anchors via social-media-friendly engagement, aligning with Xiaomi’s “Lifestyle Electronics” focus on emotional-tech synergy.
