Xiaomi’s Redmi brand has officially unveiled the Redmi Buds 3 truly wireless earbuds in China. The Buds 3 arrives as the brand’s first headset with a semi-in-ear design. It carries a price tag of 199 yuan (~$30) but will be open for crowdfunding from September 8 via Xiaomi Youpin and Xiaomi Mall at a reduced price of 159 yuan (~$20).

As stated, the Redmi Buds 3 true wireless earphones adopt a semi-in-ear design while the charging box adopts a compact square box design similar to that of Apple AirPods. The earbuds each weigh just 4.5g which means they are ultralightweight. The design also ensures that they can better fit the curve of the ear canal and bring a more comfortable wearing experience.

The headset is equipped with Qualcomm QCC3040 high-energy chip and supports Qualcomm aptX Adaptive audio decoding technology. While ensuring a stable connection, it provides a better listening experience with a full link delay as low as 95ms.

In terms of sound quality, Redmi Buds 3 has a built-in 12mm large-size composite diaphragm moving coil, which can restore more sound details. Under the adjustment of Xiaomi Audio Lab, it outputs a rich bass and the treble output is clear and undistorted.

Further, the headset has two built-in high-sensitivity microphones, combined with Qualcomm’s cVc noise reduction technology, which can dynamically reduce environmental noise and reduce echo during calls.

In terms of battery life, Redmi Buds 3 can each last for up to 5 hours on a single charge while with the charging box, the usage time can be extended up to 20 hours. Also, the company claims a 10-minute charge can deliver up to 1.5 hours of playback.

The Buds 3 also comes with the IP54 dustproof and waterproof rating and support for wearing detection, search for headsets, MIUI quick connect pop-up window and other functions. It also supports touch control. By touching the back of the headset, you can control the headset to play music, answer calls, etc. At the same time, long-pressing the touch control button wakes up the XiaoAI assistant.
