Redmi Buds 8 Active launched in Nepal with 37-hour battery and HyperOS connect

Xiaomi has introduced the 8th-generation Redmi Buds 8 Active in Nepal. It is the successor to the Buds 6 Active and offers improved battery life, enhanced connectivity, and better sound quality at an affordable price. In this article, I will discuss all the details of the Bud 8 Active, including the official price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.

Redmi Buds 8 Active Overview

Design And Comfort

To start with, Redmi Buds 8 Active use a semi-in-ear design, similar to the Redmi Buds 8 Lite, which lightly rest in the ear. Because this earbud lacks a silicone tip, you may experience discomfort during long listening sessions and everyday use. But on the brighter note, you'll experience less ear fatigue due to the lightweight construction.

Moreover, you get the Bud 8 Active in three color options: Transparent Blue, Matte Black, and Cream White. These earbuds also carry an IP54 rating, which protects them from dust and water splashes. Based on this protection rating, you can easily use Buds 8 Active for light workouts, daily commuting, and other outdoor activities.

Audio and Noise Cancellation

Moving on, these earbuds use a 14.2 mm dynamic driver with a titanium-plated diaphragm. You will get clearer sound and a stronger bass response with this driver setup. This leads to a better music and video experience and a more casual listening experience. 

You also get AAC audio coded for better audio quality during wireless playback. Moreover, Xiaomi includes dual microphones with AI call noise reduction to filter background noise for clearer voice clarity. But this earbud lacks active ANC.

Additionally, you get wind-noise reduction that operates at wind speeds up to 6 m/s to mitigate interference during outdoor listening.

App Features and Customizations

These earbuds use Xiaomi HyperOS Connect to enable smart connectivity with compatible Xiaomi devices. With this feature, you get the option for quick pairing pop-ups, dual-device connection, audio sharing, and smart device search. You can also use the Xiaomi Earbuds application to manage the earbuds' functions.

Battery Life and Charging

One of the key highlights of this device is its battery life. Each earbud comes with a 37 mAh battery that delivers up to 7 hours of playback on a single charge. You get the charging case with a 475 mAh battery that helps extend battery life up to 37 hours when both buds are used together. These earbuds are an improved version compared to the Buds 6: 6 hours on a single charge and up to 30 hours with the charging case.
