First of all shipping and packaging everything was quick and ok. And I purchased the white one while both of them looks pretty well at their own color. So don't become racist between black and white . Ha ha 😂 jokes apart -
●about Packaging and Box -
the box comes with Mi's casual orange and black box which contains one micro USB charging cable , one earphone unit , 5 silicon made different size earbuds , one wire management passing holder and user manual.
● Design -
This earphone is designed specially for sports persons or persons love to listen music while jogging or running. It has been made with solid hard plastic and no metal with reflective earpiece . On the earpieces there no led light or indicator but a white indicator has been placed on control panel. It has rubber hook which makes these earphones securely fit in your ear.by the way you can that rubber hook while running or jogging but when sorted normally you may not use that hook cause that makes little bit pain in your ear after 40 to 45 minutes. But it never fells down no matter how you shake your head. On the control panel there plus or minus button which is used to increase the volume or change the next track and decrease the volume or to go the previous track. Track changing works on long press while single press controls volume level. White indicator only glows so frequently before pairing and just flash at long duration gap after pairing or during use. Beside of that there are MEMS silicon microphone and next to it one multifunction button which is used to power on or off, receive calls, launch google assistance or reject calls. The wire is stand quality and thin.
●Tech specs and hilighted features -
it's sound is powered with 32 ohm impedance 10mm driver unit and 120 mah lithium battery including 9 hours of battery back up at single charge. Means you can listen approx 150 to 200 songs at a single charge. There is no much more tech specs reveled by xiaomi like frequency range, sensitivity or power . This earphone is packed with bluetooth 4.1 technology which is the previous bluetooth version of latest bluetooth 5.0 . The 4.1 supports HFP or A2DP or HSP or AVRCP protocol. It has 10meters of bluetooth range with 260 hours of standby time while not using this earphone atall. Battery takes about 2 hours to fullu charge while using it's max supported 2amp adapter to charge.
● What I liked the most and my decision -
yes my decision is here and I also liked those features most
. It can connect with 2 devices at same time, or play music or can received calls at same time by swapping between two calls
. The microphone being a silicon made MEMS mic , it has ability to reduce the noise to improve the voice quality during calls but no active "noise cancellation". But my friends or peoples whom called them by this earphone they never complained any microphone voice issue or something like that . They said they are hearing pretty well and clear. So microphone is clear and loud enough even on mid tone voice.
. Inspire of having bluetooth 4.1 it has low power consumption and good range. I got established connection upto my 2nd room . It reconnects to the paired smartphones quickly .
. Among of five types of earbuds 2 pairs are reduced auscultation earbuds for sports while other 3 pairs are sealed earbuds which seals your ear very well while listening music or making call to detach you from your around environment.
. The earphone is so light and can't feel that it ia in your ear while the neck band or over the headphone are pretty weird specially for sports and makes you uncomfortable. Also it can be used without rubber ear hook as a normal earphone while feeling pain after long use. So there these is a alternate option
. This earphone is pretty IPX4 standard "splash and sweat proof" which does not harm your earphone .
. It has 9 hours of battery life while other bluetooth earphone or neckbands has 6 to 8 hours of battery life.
.last it has clear "sound quality" with dynamic bass. Means it gives only bass where it is needed not every where with strong beats. So bass is dynamic and little bit boosted which sounds fine . The mid and high speeches are very clear but lower ones could be improved and less clear than the higher or middle ones. But sound is so sweet with bass specially considering this price point . But far far better than boat one. And can't expect Hd or 4k quality or premium sound at this price.
◆ what I didn't like or cons -
. The built meterial specially the earphones driver cabinet could be metal made cause if it fells from your hand then there may be a chance that it could be broken. So have to use carefully
. The wire quality does not satisfy me and could be more thicker but no mention about is it tangle free or not
. The lower sounds could be more clear.
. If there were any glowing light or glowing mi logo on the driver's cabinet then it could look more better specially at dark
But however you should go for it with out any 2nd thinking and I found better sound , better microphone than new mi super bass over the headphone or boat bluetooth earphones . Mi , a company, always we can trust about it's built quality . By the way LIKE my review if found helpful.
