The main advantages and disadvantages of headphones from Xiaomi

Xiaomi is a major manufacturer of mobile devices, household appliances and headphones. The latter occupy a special place in the brand’s assortment and have both advantages and disadvantages.

Pros:

1. Availability of headphones. Most Xiaomi headphone models are 1.5-2 times cheaper than headsets from other famous manufacturers.
2. Ecosystem. The Chinese manufacturer followed Apple's example and created an advanced ecosystem in which all devices are easily synchronized with each other and controlled in a special application.
3. Manufacturability. The brand produces its headphones based on new technologies that guarantee a reliable Bluetooth connection, clear sound, etc.
4. Good assortment. Xiaomi produces all types of headphones: in-ear, in-ear, on-ear and TWS. So it will be easy to choose the right model.

Minuses:

1. Inconvenient controls. This drawback applies more to TWS headphones, because... their control panels have a poorly designed gesture system (often there is no way to change the track or change the volume).
2. Build quality. In general, Xiaomi headphones have a good build, but if you compare them with models from specialized companies, they will lose in this indicator.

What other brands should you pay attention to?

In the same price segment as Xiaomi are wireless headphones from our Tyumen brand CGPods. Models of this brand have been included in the TOP 5 best-selling TWS headphones in Russia for the second year. In terms of sales, CGPods have surpassed even such market giants as Huawei, JBL and Sony.

The reason for such popularity of Tyumen headphones is the unique ratio of high quality, wide functionality and at the same time budget cost. The price of CGPods is only 3,500 rubles. Those. 4 times lower than Apple AirPods with similar sound quality and build. And in terms of functions, Tyumen headphones are even more interesting than American ones.

For example, the in-ear CGPods 5.0 and Lite models have moisture protection. You can wear headphones while showering or swimming in the pool. Expensive “apples” do not have moisture protection.

CGPods also have original cases. The Lite model has the smallest case in the world. It clicks the lid in a cool way and is as calming as bubble wrap. A real anti-stress case! CGPods 5.0 has a case made of professional aircraft-grade aluminum. Boeings are made from exactly the same metal. The case can support 220 kg. 3 times more than the plastic “apple” one, which cannot withstand even 85 kg.

In October 2022, Tyumen released another model - CGPods Air 2. These are the lightest headphones in the world. Each “ear” weighs only 3 g (30% lighter than Apple AirPods). The headphones are anatomically correct in shape, because... The model was developed taking into account the anthropometric data of Russian users. Lightweight and comfortable, CGPods Air 2 do not feel in your ears, even if worn all day. They do not put pressure on the ear canal and do not rub, unlike expensive analogues. And thanks to the correct location of the center of gravity, the headphones do not fall out during active head movements.

The new product has an expensive, high-quality headset with the same features. Therefore, the microphone transmits voice flawlessly even in very noisy places.

Tyumen CGPods work 20 hours without an outlet. Exactly like Apple AirPods. In terms of sound, Tyumen headphones are not inferior to Apple ones: they produce clear surround sound and deep bass.

With all the advantages, CGPods are 4 times cheaper than Apple AirPods - 3,500 rubles. Because Tyumen headphones are sold only on the Internet, at an honest direct price from the manufacturer. No extra charges for a well-promoted brand. Without intermediaries and offline stores like M.Video, which increase the price by 2-3 times.

Without fastening

QCY Q26

Another wireless development from the Chinese company Haomi. It has a pleasant design, although there is a lack of ergonomics. Fortunately, the kit comes with replaceable nozzles, so you can choose the ones that are comfortable.

But considering the price of Xiaomi Mi, these are all trifles. The sound is relatively decent, allows you to listen to audiobooks and podcasts, but is not suitable for heavy rock or metal. Videos and games will also not sound good.

The best wired headphones from Xiaomi

Classic, wired models were the first to appear on the market and are familiar to most consumers. Modern devices are often supplemented with control keys, with which you can change the volume and switch melodies. The built-in microphone will be an advantage, because the option will allow you to answer an incoming call remotely and quickly.

Such products have a number of advantages, including:

• No interference.
• Low smartphone battery consumption.
• Does not require recharging.
• Attractive price.

The model's sound system format is 2.0, closed (in-channel) type. The in-ear headphones come in a classic black color. The body is made of high quality aluminum. There is one dynamic emitter on each side.

The headphones have a power of 5 mW and a sensitivity of up to 98 dB.

An inexpensive model with a minimal set of options - perhaps this is how Piston can be described. The headset captivated the consumer with its good sound quality, in which the bass is clearly visible. The optimal volume will allow you to fully enjoy your favorite tracks. And yet, it is worth noting that the high frequencies are “limpy” here, and not everyone found the straight plug convenient to use.
