Xiaomi unveiled a pair of truly wireless earbuds –
the Mi AirDots Youth Edition.They cost just CNY 200 – that’s US$ 29/€ 25. You can
reserve a pair today, sales start on November 11. Each earbud is quite light at
4.2g and packs a 7.2mm driver. There’s a touch sensitive area on its side so
you can control the music player, answer calls and, yes, summon the digital
assistant.
Audio is played over power efficient Bluetooth 5.0.
On their own, the earbuds can last for 4 hours (if you use both in stereo,
using just one earbud increases the endurance to 5 hours). The carrying case
brings up the battery life up to 12 hours total.
The Xiaomi Mi AirDots are available only in China
for now. The company has an
event in the UK in a couple of days, so we may get more than the Mi 8 Pro.
