A couple of days ago, Xiaomi had teased
the arrival of a new Redmi audio product in the Indian market without revealing
what the product is. Now, the company has confirmed that the Redmi TWS Earbuds
will launched in India on 26th May.
Interestingly, the launch is scheduled
just a day after Realme is set to launch its new budget TWS earphones, dubbed
as Realme Buds Air Neo. Along with that, the company is also set to launch
Realme Smart TV and Realme Watch at the same event in India.
However, the upcoming TWS earphones from
Redmi won’t be the first for Xiaomi in India. A few days ago, Xiaomi had
launched its first true wireless earbuds in the Indian market — Mi True
Wireless Earphones 2, along with the Mi TV Box 4K and the Mi 10 smartphone.
While Xioami has still not confirmed which
product is getting launch next week, we expect it to be the Redmi AirDots S
which were launched in China last month carrying a price tag of 99 yuan, which
is about US$ 15. The earbuds were launched as a successor to the Redmi AirDots
earphones. If the company is indeed launching the same in India, we expect
similar pricing in the country. Since the company has teased this product, we
expect the official announcement to happen in the coming days.
The Redmi AirDots S retains most of the
design elements of the original Redmi AirDots. It comes with upgraded pairing
method where as soon as you pair them to your phone for the first time, both
earbuds are connected without the master-slave function.
For clearer calls, the Redmi true wireless
earbuds use 7.2mm drivers and a DSP for smart noise reduction features. It
supports Google Assistant, Siri, and XiaoAI voice assistants and comes with
Bluetooth 5.0 chip, which Redmi claims delivers double the data transmission as
compared to its predecessor.
It is also claimed to offer faster and
more stable connectivity. There’s also a new low-latency game mode which can be
enabled simply by pressing the button on the earbud three times. As for the
battery, it lasts for 4 hours which can be extended to 12 hours using the
carrying case.
