Best on-ear headphones Xiaomi

Xiaomi Mi Headphones

Rating: 4.9

Very nice headphones with a golden body. However, this is already too much for those who are going to use on-ear headphones anywhere in public transport. In this regard, there is also a simplified version Xiaomi Mi Headphones, the body and linings of which have a white-silver color.

The earbuds are supplied in a case. And rightly so, as the metal parts of the device can be easily scratched. If the accessory is to be transported for a long time, then you can use the hard case, which is also included in the kit. Another Chinese manufacturer is generous with two pairs of replaceable ear pads and an adapter for the aircraft. Owners of professional audio equipment can use a 6.3 mm adapter. However, there is great doubt that such people will look towards products Xiaomi. Whatever one may say, but Mi Headphones sound much worse than much more expensive analogs created from companies that have been working with devices responsible for sound output for several years.

However, we do not want to scare you. If you have never put headphones for 10-15 thousand rubles on your head, then the sound quality should suit you. The product outputs frequencies in the range from 20 to 40,000 Hz. The sensitivity reaches 107 dB, if you believe the manufacturer's specifications. There is also a microphone here – it indicates that this model is intended primarily for connection to a smartphone. Most importantly, it uses a detachable cable for easy transport. And with gold-plated connectors! And it should be noted that the headphones fold comfortably. They weigh no more than 240 g, which seems to be acceptable for an overhead model.

At one time, these were almost the first headphones released by the forces Xiaomi. In this regard, it can be assumed that the product should have received at least one design flaw. Here it lies in low noise insulation. Despite the fact that the headphones are on-ear, they do not press well enough to the ears, which is why you can forget about comfortable trips on the tram or metro. In short, these headphones are designed exclusively for use at home or in the office.

Advantages

• Great appearance;
• The cable is removable;
• Gold plated connectors are used;
• Convenient foldable design;
• Pouch, case and 6.3 mm adapter included;
• Not very heavy;
• The box comes with two pairs of interchangeable ear pads;
• Have a microphone.

disadvantages

• Complete lack of sound insulation;
• Plastic system for attaching replaceable ear pads;
• A short cable is sufficient.

Xiaomi Mi Headphones Light Edition

Rating: 4.8

Despite the name, these headphones are radically different from the usual Mi Headphones, considered the first in this rating. If the older brother uses a folding structure, then here it is absolutely monolithic. Some would argue that this benefits longevity. Yes it is. But taking such headphones somewhere on the road is very inconvenient. The shape of the ear cushions has also changed here. It can hardly be called universal – for some ears, such an accessory will not fit corny, a person will experience discomfort. Soundproofing is improved here, but still far from ideal.

Three color options are on sale. White headphones are in greatest demand, but if you try, you can find versions with orange and green body colors. In any case, the accessory will weigh 220 g. A little, the head does not get tired of such headphones. However, the low weight clearly hints at the quality of the components used. Indeed, the speakers here leave much to be desired. In terms of sound purity Xiaomi Mi Headphones Light Edition can only be compared with other cheapest headphones. This model will definitely outperform the nameless creations of other Chinese companies, which are sold for a penny, but the products of monsters of audio equipment put these headphones on their shoulder blades, even the cheapest. One feels that Xiaomi is only making its first steps in this market.

As expected, the headphones are equipped with a built-in microphone. That is, the product is a headset. The cable attachment is one-way, which makes the fit on the ears as easy as possible. The wire length reaches 1.4 m – a perfectly acceptable parameter. Unfortunately, it cannot be detached, which makes transportation even more inconvenient. However, we have already found out that these headphones are not for listening to music somewhere on the road. This model is intended primarily for home use. And that is why the minimum number of people has heard about its existence – you can buy something more expensive for your home. In particular, the usual version of Mi Headphones, which wins in almost all respects.

Advantages

• Three color options;
• There is a microphone;
• Adequate weight;
• One-sided cable fastening;
• Long enough wire;
• The design cannot be called flimsy;
• Low cost;
• The complete set is supplemented with a cover;
• Easy groping button on the left cup.

disadvantages

• Inconvenient transportation;
• Sound quality far from ideal;
• The wire cannot be disconnected.

Best in-ear headphones (earplugs) Xiaomi

Xiaomi Mi Collar Bluetooth Headset

Rating: 4.9

Usually products Xiaomi pleases with a minimum price tag. But when you are offered to spend almost 4000 rubles on headphones under this brand, you start to think. However, the cost is quite adequate. The fact is that this model is a wireless headset. Now take a look at the range of online stores. You will immediately notice that good Bluetooth plug-in headphones cost at least one and a half to two times more. At the same time, the product from Xiaomi sounds very good and has support for many modern technologies. It is noticeable that specialists from a Chinese company invest all their skills not in on-ear headphones, but in so-called plugs – this is where the result of their work is felt most strongly.

Of course, this device is a headset. If you receive a call, you can easily answer it – with a highly sensitive microphone, the interlocutor will hear you very well. On the wire, you can find not only a microphone hole, but also several buttons. They are needed to answer a call, pause and switch tracks, as well as change the volume level. Unfortunately, rewinding within a musical composition is not implemented here. But this is typical for all inexpensive Bluetooth – headphones, let's not scold the Chinese company. Instead, it should be praised for its sound quality. No, music lovers will definitely not like the hybrid emitter technology used here. But if you have never listened to music through expensive audio equipment, then everything will suit you for sure. However, even you will notice certain limitations of the technology Bluetooth.

Best of all, this representative of our rating shows itself paired with some flagship. In this case, support for the aptX codec is activated. Its creators claim that with its help the sound is transmitted almost in CD quality. In the case of Xiaomi Mi Collar Bluetooth Headset, this is close to the truth – everything rests against the ceiling of those very two-driver emitters. Feels like the headphones are designed for high quality audio reproduction. If you try to listen with their help to the simplest MP3 track with a bitrate of 128 Kbps, then the pain begins – you immediately notice all the problems of this format.

Of course, such a cheap Bluetooth headset couldn't do without its drawbacks. In this case, you can complain about the meager configuration. A cover, at least the most simple one, would not hurt such headphones, but the manufacturer did not generously with it – the box contains only the headset itself and replaceable ear pads. Some of the buyers may also be scared off by voice notifications about switching on and off, which are implemented here only in Chinese. But you can't complain about the battery life – the product can sound up to eight hours, depending on the standard and codec used. This long-term operation is provided by a 137 mAh battery.

Advantages

• Four types of colors;
• Convenient management of music tracks;
• The microphone is not forgotten;
• Dynamic and reinforcing type of emitters;
• Implemented support for aptX;
• Decent battery life
• Not the highest cost.

disadvantages

• Meager equipment;
• Some buyers report slight discomfort due to the shape of the earbuds with the speakers;
• Chinese notices;
• Difficulty connecting to two devices.

Xiaomi Mi In-Ear Headphones Pro HD

Rating: 4.8

These headphones are wired. Outwardly, they are very similar to Xiaomi Original Headphones – a model that did not make it into our rating only because of the huge number of fakes and low prevalence in Russian online stores. And here, too, hybrid emitter technology is used. But if the 'original' model has one dynamic and one reinforcing emitter built in, then there is one more dynamic one. As a result, the sound is divided into three streams according to its frequencies. This is the perfect solution! If you listen to music from a quality source equipped with a separate audio processor, you can hear every musical instrument, even a triangle in the farthest corner of the orchestra (provided that the track is saved with a very high bitrate). However, some sites claim that only two emitters are built in here. Whom to believe is not clear.

The sensitivity of these headphones does not exceed 98 dB. The connection is carried out using a cable 1.25 m long. It has a circular cross-section – in this regard, nothing unusual awaits you. The impedance is quite typical for wired earplugs, 32 ohms. Therefore, you definitely won't need an amplifier. The cable has a small remote control, with which you can adjust the volume, pause and switch to the next or previous track. As in the case with the model discussed above, you cannot fast-forward and rewind the composition here. The body of the headphones themselves is made of metal, supplemented with plastic inserts. It remains to add that the product is painted in three colors – from light silver to black.

Advantages

• Weight does not exceed 17 g;
• Three colors to choose from;
• Hybrid emitter technology is used;
• Long enough cable;
• Excellent sensitivity;
• Metal body;
• Have a microphone;
• Convenient management;
• The set includes a bag for carrying;
• The price is not high.

disadvantages

• Headphones sound downright bad on cheap smartphones;
• The nozzles do not have the best noise isolation;
• The straight plug is not convenient for everyone;
• In the cold, the cable begins to tan.

Best in-ear headphones Xiaomi

Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Headset

Rating: 4.9

The only mono headset in our ranking. This accessory was created for motorists. With the help of such a headset, you can free your hands by talking on the phone without being distracted from what is happening on the road. When designing the device, the Chinese tried to achieve the lowest weight so that the headset does not fall out of the ear even during sharp turns of the head. As a result, they got a six-gram baby. Also, the emphasis was on low cost, in connection with which cheap plastic awaits the buyer. But on the other hand, this allows the company Xiaomi to count on a large volume of sales. The manufacturer even decided to release its device in three colors – white, black and blue. The last option looks the most interesting – usually mono headsets are not painted in this color.

Of course, you don't need to expect perfect sound from such an accessory. Why, if it is not intended for listening to music? For the manufacturer, it was much more important to achieve long battery life. Fortunately, he did it. Even a miniature battery lasts about five hours of headset operation. It should be noted that the product has a button that allows you to answer a call. Then she also repels this call. This headset has no more special skills. As for the configuration, it does not contain anything interesting – only replaceable silicone tips can be distinguished.

Mono headset supports standard Bluetooth 4.1. When using it, the communication range can reach 10 meters. But this is in ideal conditions, in practice it is better to keep the smartphone in your pocket, otherwise the connection may disappear from time to time.

Advantages

• The headset is very lightweight;
• Three colors to choose from;
• Quite good connection quality;
• There is a fairly sensitive microphone;
• Simple but tactile materials;
• Long battery life;
• Very low price.

disadvantages

• The service life with regular use is only six months;
• Some ears do fall out of the headset;
• There is no noise cancellation.

Conclusion

This is the list of the best headphones Xiaomi. The list is pretty short. But there is nothing to be done about it, because the Chinese company does not place any special emphasis on accessories for its smartphones. However, an easier choice is good news – you can decide on specific headphones without much difficulty.
