Xiaomi has scheduled a launch event for July 19th at 7:00 PM CST, where they will unveil several new products. Among the anticipated releases is the new set of earbuds, the Xiaomi Buds 5. The company has also released several promotional posters showcasing the design of these upcoming earbuds.
The Xiaomi Buds 5 is expected to focus on improved audio quality with support for lossless audio, described by Xiaomi as delivering “lossless audio, natural sound.” This suggests an upgrade from the previous generation’s offerings.
The design appears to remain semi-in-ear, similar to Apple’s AirPods, but with the addition of a new gold color option. The Xiaomi Buds 5 will come in Moonlight Black, Snow Mountain White, Frost Blue, and Titanium Gold colors. Promotional images hint at a revised charging case design, with a more rounded rectangular shape compared to the previous iteration.
The Xiaomi Buds 4, launched in 2022, included a semi-in-ear design, IPX54 water resistance, active noise cancellation with real-time adjustability, and support for Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification and the LHDC 5.0 transmission protocol for CD-level sound quality.
The Xiaomi Buds 4 also boasted a graphene-dual magnetic dynamic driver for rich audio, 360-degree spatial audio for an immersive listening experience, and a transparency mode for increased situational awareness. Functionality included microphone cutouts on each earbud for clear calls, tap controls on the stem for easy interaction, and three built-in microphones with noise-reduction capabilities.
The battery life of the Xiaomi Buds 4 offered 6 hours of playback per charge from the earbuds themselves, with the pebble-shaped charging case extending that total to 30 hours. Each earbud housed a 30mAh battery, while the case packed a 480mAh capacity. The Xiaomi Buds 4 offered the convenience of connecting to two devices simultaneously.
While details about the Xiaomi Buds 5 remain scarce, the upcoming launch event will reveal all the specs along with pricing. The event will also be the platform for the official unveiling of the Redmi K70 Ultra.
Xiaomi has also confirmed the launch of the Xiaomi Mix Fold 4, their foldable phone offering, alongside the Xiaomi Smart Band 9 and Xiaomi Watch S4 Sport. With a packed schedule, July 19th promises to be a significant day for Xiaomi and its product line.
