Xiaomi Hybrid Noise-Cancelling Bluetooth Collar headset



Xiaomi has officially launched a noise-cancelling Bluetooth Collar headset under crowdfunding. The advent of industrialization, noise population is a menace plaguing the society. You may desire to sit at the subway station or in an airport and listen to music without getting disturbed by the noise of the surrounding. This is where Xiaomi’s latest noise-cancelling headset comes in. The device is presently available on Xiaomi Mall and Mi Mall with a crowdfunding price of 439 yuan (US$ 63) and a retail price of 499 yuan (US$ 71).

The teaser of the launch event that was released earlier on had revealed how the noise-cancelling technology of the new Bluetooth headset works. As a recap, Xiaomi’s hybrid noise cancelling combines both active and passive noise-cancelling technology. The effect is a better noise cancellation and even lesser power consumption.

The Xiaomi noise-cancelling Bluetooth collar headset has two noise-cancelling gears, which can be applied to a variety of scenarios to meet the various needs of different groups of people. There is a weak noise-cancelling gear suitable for some life scenes, such as shopping malls, streets, offices, etc. This gear is able to retain some of the vocals while isolating the ambient noise. It prevents you from hearing the sudden shouts of friends around you and also reduces the pressure in the ear, making it more comfortable and easy to wear.

If you often need to travel, there is a strong noise-cancelling gear suitable for use in noisy environments such as airports, and subway stations where the sound of trains or aeroplanes are always constant. The strong noise-cancelling gears can effectively filter out these types of noise. Just wear headphones and listen to music, and the world will be quiet. In addition, the headphone can be used as a muffler to silent all noise even when you are not listening to music.

For hardware, the Xiaomi hybrid noise-cancelling Bluetooth collar headset uses a 13.6mm diameter large moving coil + moving iron acoustic architecture. The dynamic unit makes the low frequency of the music more solid and stable, effectively increasing the dynamic performance while maintaining the sound quality. The headset supports Sony LDAC Bluetooth technology. The seamless transmission process allows for near-lossless Hi-Res sound quality without any frequency reduction and sound quality degradation. At the same time, the Bluetooth collar headset also adopts a new generation of Bluetooth 5.0 technology, which has faster transmission speed, stronger anti-interference ability, more stable signal and lower power consumption.

For power, the Xiaomi Hybrid Noise-Cancelling Bluetooth Collar headset uses a large-capacity battery. The new generation of low-power chips can support the continuous playing of music for more than 20 hours. Even if the music and noise-cancelling function are turned on at the same time, the battery can still last for about 15 hours.

In addition to noise cancellation, sound quality, and battery life, comfort is also a very important criterion for good headphones. The headset adopts a soft rubber and metal design. The curved collar part uses skin-friendly soft rubber material, giving the wearer a soft and comfortable feel. The control buttons are housed on the tip of the collar part in a metal casing. The magnetic earphone unit is designed to be attached to each other at the front of the neck when not in use.
