USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 2,840 granted patents across 209 technology areas, active 2017–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H04W (WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS).
The verdict
Beijing holds 2,840 US patents across 209 technology areas, rank #131 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Beijing Xiaomi Mobile Software Co., Ltd. has been granted 2,840 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Beijing Xiaomi Mobile Software Co., Ltd. at rank #131 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 209 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04W (WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS). As a Foreign Corporation, Beijing Xiaomi Mobile Software Co., Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Beijing sits between DOW Global Technologies Llc (3,004 patents, rank #127) and Salesforce.com, Inc. (2,773 patents, rank #135) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 73.1/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 2,667 grants, compared with 173 in the 2015–2019 window, a +1442% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Beijing Xiaomi Mobile Software Co., Ltd.'s 13.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Beijing Xiaomi Mobile Software Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Beijing's 2,840 grants land it in the top 0.1% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
