Earlier today, Xiaomi held a launch event in China where it presented its new Redmi K80 series smartphones along with several other gadgets, like the Redmi Watch 5 and the Redmi Buds 6 Pro. We have already gone over the watch in a different article, so let’s dive into the specifics of the Redmi Buds 6 Pro in this one.
Features of Redmi Buds 6 Pro
The Buds 6 Pro come with a triple-driver configuration aimed at enhancing sound quality. They are equipped with a 6.7mm piezoelectric ceramic dual driver paired with an 11mm titanium-coated dynamic driver. This setup allows for clear highs, a well-rounded midrange, and powerful bass. Xiaomi has utilized its “Golden Ears” acoustic tuning, which boosts high-frequency loudness by 10% compared to the earlier model.
Immersive Audio Experience
These earbuds also support spatial audio, providing a more engaging listening experience. They are compatible with advanced audio codecs such as MIHC, LDHC 5.0, and LC3. The design includes Deep Space Noise Reduction 2.0, which can cut down noise levels by as much as 55dB. Additionally, a 3-mic AI ENC system helps reduce wind noise during calls, even in gusts reaching up to 12m/s.
Battery Life and Gaming Edition
With a total playback time of up to 36 hours, these earbuds are built for long listening sessions. They also feature fast charging, which allows for 2 hours of listening with just 5 minutes of charging. Xiaomi has also introduced a gaming version of the Redmi Buds 6 Pro, tailored for gamers. This edition comes with a low-latency flash connector 2.0, built-in storage for quick access, and an ultra-low latency of just 20ms. Additionally, it supports the high-fidelity LHDC Lossless audio codec and introduces Xiaomi’s first wireless microphone function, capable of transmitting audio up to 130 meters away.
