Blueair Blue Pure 511i Max vs Levoit Core 400S-P

Full Smart Air Purifiers comparison in 2026

Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official Blueair and Levoit sites.
2026 verdict
For small rooms, the Blueair Blue Pure 511i Max edges out the Levoit Core 400S-P in this air purifier comparison, winning on price, a washable pre-filter and wider particle sensing that reads PM1, PM2.5 and PM10 instead of PM2.5 alone.
The Levoit hits back with a two-year warranty against one year, stronger owner feedback and more capacity, rated at 231 CFM for 358 ft² against 153 CFM for 237 ft², plus H13 True HEPA filtration and Home Assistant support. Both run on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi with Alexa and Google Home. Pick the Blueair Blue Pure 511i Max for a bedroom where a compact, low-maintenance unit makes sense, and the Levoit Core 400S-P for a larger room or a Home Assistant setup.
