Xiaomi India officially announced the first Redmi-branded audio product in the county today. As expected, this new product called Redmi Earbuds S is a rebadged Redmi AirDots S that initially launched in China in the month of April.
The newly launched Redmi Earbuds S in India features Bluetooth 5.0 to connect with devices. Unlike the OG Redmi AirDots (review), both the earbuds connect to devices separately. For the unaware, the previous model used a master-slave connection. That means the right bud connects to the device, while the left bud connects to the right earbud.
The TWS also features a low-latency (122ms) gaming mode which can be enabled or disabled by triple pressing the physical button present on either bud. These buttons can be also used for options like play/pause music, wake up voice assistants, and attend/hang-up calls.
The buds are also IPX4 certified for water/sweat resistance. As for battery life, the brand claims 4 hours for buds and 12 hours for the charging case. That means a total of 16 hours of playback time.
Further, the charging case of the new Redmi TWS features a MicroUSB port and takes 1.5 hours to charge fully as per the company.
Last but not least, the Redmi Earbuds S is priced at ₹1,799 ($24) and will be available in only black color at Mi online store, Amazon India, Mi Homes, Mi Studios, and partner retail outlets.
UP NEXT: Redmi 10X and 10X Pro officially launched in China; pricing starts at 1,599 yuan ($224)
