Over the past few years, Redmi has been doing quite well in Nepal's TWS market. After successfully dominating the TWS market, they are now stepping into the over-ear headphone industry with Redmi Headphones Neo. This new headphone comes with a 72-hour battery life on a single charge, while Redmi is also giving 42dB ANC with this phone. In this article, I will discuss this new pair of headphones from Redmi, including the Redmi Headphones Neo price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.

Redmi Headphones Neo Overview

ANC and Call Quality

Starting with the ANC, Xiaomi offers 42dB of noise reduction with 3 adjustable modes through their app. If you are someone who constantly travels in public vehicles or lives in a crowded place, these headphones might be your travel buddy, as the ANC on paper looks pretty decent. But it is a midrange over-ear headphone, so do not expect complete isolation from the unpredictable, sharp local sound present in your surroundings. Regarding call quality, Xiaomi offers a triple-microphone setup with AI integration. With this, you can expect relatively decent performance, but it has AI noise suppression that might make your voice sound more robotic than on the standard mobile network.

Design and Comfort

Moving on, Xiaomi said these are their first over-ear headphones, so they should essentially be like other over-ear headphones available in the Nepali market. On the design front, it has a sleek, matte-finish plastic chassis with a wheel-shaped design that looks clean and premium from a distance. You get the option of “Odsidian Black” and “Sand White” to choose from.

Further, to make this headphone more portable, Xiaomi chose the rotating earcup design that could rest comfortably around your neck. Also, they come with physical tactical button controls instead of touch controls to prevent accidental triggering of unwanted features during operation.

Audio and Codec

Under the hood, the Redmi Headphones Neo uses a 40mm titanium-coated dynamic driver that should deliver a pretty decent listening experience. Here, Xiaomi also claims that this headphone has been tuned to be consumer-friendly and bass-forward. This means you might experience a premium base, while mid-range vocals should also remain reasonably clear. If you are a hardcore, energetic music listener, this might be a good choice for you. But with this tuning, the treble might sound slightly rolled off and smoother.

Here, the headset supports Bluetooth 5.4 for wireless connectivity and SBC and AAC audio codecs, which look pretty basic for a mid-range headphone, whereas competitors like the CMF Headphone Pro offer a premium LDAC codec. If you are using it for casual Spotify, YouTube, and everyday streaming, it might perform satisfactorily.

Interestingly, here you get the USB-C wired audio option instead of the old 3.5mm headphone jack. This means you can connect Redmi Headphones Neo directly to your device via the USB-C cable for lossless, low-latency wired mode. This should work pretty well and bypass Bluetooth compression to deliver Hi-Res audio playback. It not only lets you offer lag-free playback but also lets you play mobile games and edit video with a wired connection.

Battery and Others

In terms of battery life, Redmi Headphones Neo packs a 500mAh battery that can last up to 72 hours of continuous playback with ANC off. This headphone can be quickly topped up via the USB-C port with the same cable you use to charge your phone and laptop. And regarding device compatibility, you can pair these headphones with your phone and laptop simultaneously. You can also use the Xiaomi earbuds App available on Google Play to control the different ANC modes.

Who should buy the Redmi Headphone Neo in Nepal?

As this new Redmi Headphone Neo offers long battery life and a compact size, users who value compactness and battery life more might find it appealing. Also, the wireless performance on this headphone is quite average, but the wired USB-C connection provides Hi-Res audio. So, if you are a gamer or a creator (i.e., a video editor), this could be the option you can go with on a budget. But if you're looking for a premium wireless codec, you can skip it and go for higher-end headphones from brands like Sony.
