Xiaomi launches FlipBuds Pro TWS earbuds with active noise cancellation

Xiaomi offers a wide variety of IoT products including wireless earbuds. The company has expanded its portfolio of TWS earbuds with the launch of the FlipBuds series in China. FlipBuds Pro is the first model in this lineup. So, let’s look at the all features and specs of Xiaomi FlipBuds Pro alongside its expected price in Nepal.

Xiaomi FlipBuds Pro Overview:

Design

Starting with the design, FlipBuds Pro gets its inspiration from Apple's AirPods Pro. Although the product as a whole is not comparable, the typical short stem shape with a curved body is identical to Apple's alternative. This high-gloss all-black body sets it apart from the competition. Furthermore, the charging case is more rounded here. According to Xiaomi, the premium appearance is due to the nano NCVM coating.

Audio

In terms of sound, these buds include Qualcomm's QCC5151 audio chip. It boasts 11mm ultra dynamic sound drivers and these ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) enabled TWS earbuds come with Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. Xiaomi says that low-latency activities such as gaming should be no problem for its new earbuds.

A long press on either earbud will switch between transparency and noise-canceling modes, a single press will play/pause music or accept calls, and a double press will skip the currently playing track or reject calls. Xiaomi promises 5 hours of battery life with ANC enabled and 7 hours without it. Similarly, the charging case can provide up to 28 hours of entertainment. Furthermore, FlipBuds Pro also supports fast charging, giving you 2 hours of playback in just 5 minutes.

Three-modes Noise Cancellation

It has three ANC modes and can filter up to 40 decibels of noise. Depending on your ambient setting, one can choose between daily, office, and travel noise cancellation modes.
