The Redmi Buds 5 Pro was released together with the Redmi K70 series on November 29. It uses a coaxial dual unit of 11mm dynamic coil+10mm piezoelectric ceramic, supports LHDC 5.0, has a maximum noise reduction depth of 52dB, and is priced at 399 yuan.
Brief configuration of Redmi Buds 5 Pro:
Headphone body IP54 protection
Coaxial dual unit (11mm dynamic coil+10mm piezoelectric ceramic tweeter)
Support Bluetooth 5.3, LHDC 5.0 and LE Audio with Hi Res authentication. The claimed minimum delay of the whole link is only 49ms
Up to 52dB noise reduction, 4kHz noise reduction bandwidth (increased by 50%)
Single unit noise reduction 10 hour endurance, equipped with charging box 38 hour endurance
Price: 399 yuan
appearance
True · Minimal packaging, accessories or charging line, size ear cap and instructions.
Among the four colors of the Redmi Buds 5 Pro, the obsidian black and the E-sports version are imitation leather cases. We definitely recommend Ice Porcelain Blue (matte) and Clear Snow White (smooth).
And the E-sports version with hundreds of millions of colors has a 2.4G receiver, with more agreements, which is 100 yuan more expensive.
Pure white smooth surface looks more exquisite, but it is doomed to be unable to avoid fingerprints and scratches, Frosting is the right way. You'd better buy ice porcelain blue.
The charging box of the Redmi Buds 5 Pro is of moderate weight and has a small empty cover. The opening damping and closing feel are close to those of the domestic flagship earphones with double price, that is, the parting line at the bottom and the gap control of the buttons at the bottom are general.
The appearance of the headset body of the Redmi Buds 5 Pro has not changed much, mainly due to the different openings. The touch trim strip on the side now has marble patterns similar to K70 series, which can be used.
The charging box has been changed into a long and bright strip indicator light, and the opening has become a beveled design that is more convenient for holding headphones.
Simple experience
The Redmi Buds 5 Pro has a larger earphone body due to the soaring specifications of the diaphragm. The earphone is slightly propped up and is very stable to wear. It has its own physical noise reduction buff (the shape of the ear is different from person to person, for reference only).
The earphone handle is still used for touch control, and there is no sense of pressure. The touch response is accurate, without Schrodinger. Click/double click/triple click/long press can be customized, and the volume, song cut, and start/stop can be done. But because it is really easy to touch by mistake when clicking, the factory default is to leave the click blank.
The logic of dual device connection is that the previous device that is playing will be automatically switched only after it is paused. The advantage of this scheme is that it will not be cut by mistake, although I prefer the scheme of forced switching.
Sound quality and noise reduction
In addition to wireless charging and headphone handle pressure sensing, the Redmi Buds 5 Pro basically has the same common configuration as the flagship headset: spatial audio (truth telling, not useful for ordinary users), ear canal scanning and personalized noise reduction, LHDC 5.0 and LC3 protocols, large size dual units, and flagship 52dB+4kHz maximum noise reduction depth and bandwidth.
As of December 6, there are still more functions in the "Xiaomi Headset" APP than in the management page of the Pengpai OS system integration. The APP has more important functions such as personalized noise reduction switch and EQ adjustment, but the temporary switching of LHDC/LC3 and the adjustment of code rate can only be completed in the system management page (LC3 with low delay should be coordinated with some LC3 enabled mobile phones such as K70 series, and the official announcement should be at least 49ms)
Therefore, even the "original" phones of the K70 series are recommended for the next APP. Although there are small bugs such as "open depth noise reduction sometimes produces bottom noise", Jin Fan! However, the APP itself is still very easy to use. It is the only headset APP that can compete with Huanlv.
Redmi Buds 5 Pro has customized tuning of network suppressing cloud, cool dog and QQ music ↑
The treble unit of Redmi Buds 5 Pro has been upgraded from the previous generation of 6mm titanium diaphragm to 10mm piezoelectric ceramic. With the addition of 11mm dynamic coil, this set of hardware specifications is really strong (the previous generation is the first coaxial dual unit of Redmi, 6mm+10mm).
Metaphysical evaluation: The high frequency (such as guitar) is clear, and the low frequency (such as drums) is also coming up, which makes the human voice not very prominent (listening to female voices is more poisonous than listening to male voices). The overall tuning of the Redmi Buds 5 Pro is relatively neutral. If you are not satisfied, you can adjust your EQ.
Although it is earphone, audio metaphysics doesn't beep much. For audio products, it is recommended that you listen to them offline in person, which is more effective than watching the evaluation all over the world.
In terms of noise reduction (including ear canal scanning), the performance is very strong. Although not as exaggerated as TWS 3, the sound reduction on the subway/bus is slightly stronger than that of the flagship of the Green Factory.
Rather than the transparent model of Apple's camp, DDDD， Needless to say.
Summary
Compared with the previous generation, the Redmi Buds 5 Pro has more LHDC5.0 and space audio, and has stronger units. The sound quality and noise reduction performance are OK. It has distanced itself from Redmi Buds 5 (official website: 199 yuan) and Redmi Buds 4 Pro (official website: 319 yuan). It is a replacement of Xiaomi Buds 4 Pro (official website: 899 yuan now) without pressure sensing and wireless charging.
However, the old flagship of the friend companies that have fully reduced their prices are also very strong. The later competitiveness of the Redmi Buds 5 Pro still depends on how hard they try to assist at the end of the day.
