Design
Well, it looks simple. The Xiaomi Wireless Bluetooth 4.1 Music Sport earbuds feature a simple design, which in my opinion, looks quite elegant and pretty light-weight at just 17.8 grams. You’ll hardly feel the earphone while wearing it around your ear.
It stays stable in your ear even during strenuous exercise; thanks to the special adjustable ear hook design. The earphone is IPX4 certified, meaning that it is waterproof, sweat-proof and thus durability is also assured.
In order to control music play or answer calls freely, Xiaomi Bluetooth earphone has got the separating microphone and volume control design, that is assured to deliver clearer calls.
Also, the tiny on-cord controls (volume up and down buttons) present on the ear-set, can bring you a more free exercise experience.
According to the Xiaomi, the earbuds feature the nano-meter spray technology, wear resistance, and anti-oil materials. After using it for a long time, all you need to do is wipe it lightly to make it look like a brand new one.
Also, the earphone cable is coated with UV paints, offering a comfortable hands-free feeling to the users.
Manufactured using CNC carved cut, borax process and twice anodizing technologies, the device boasts exquisite metal texture, wear-resistant, and anti-scratch capabilities. On top of that, the earphone comes with five pairs of Silicone earbud tips of different sizes.
It has a micro USB port for charging.
Also, the device comes in black and white color options.

Performance
The sound loudness of the device is pretty decent, which is something we would not expect to see in a budget-priced earphone. You can also control the volume or switch songs even when you are away from your smartphone; thanks to the built-in buttons on the earphone.
It has independent sound chamber structure that efficiently divides the interference of the sound waves, and makes the dynamic sound clearer, delivering a more logical sound. Also, the metal composite diaphragm enables the sound effect to be more stable and efficiently decreases the distortion of sound.
Battery
The device is backed by a decent 110 mAh battery. Talking about the battery life, the device offers a whopping 7 days (280 hours) standby time and 7 hours of music playback on a fully charged battery. With a moderate usage, we almost got three days of battery backup, without the need of recharging the battery.
MEMS Microphone
Xiaomi Wireless Bluetooth 4.1 Music Sports earbuds come with the high technology MEMS microphone, thus providing stable and clear sound. This will ensure high-quality calls, irrespective of the place you’are at.
MEMS microphone targets all audio application where small size, reliability, high-quality sound, and affordability are key requirements.
Connectivity
The earphone uses Bluetooth 4.1 to connect wirelessly to your smartphone. Interestingly it can connect up to two Bluetooth devices at the same time. To pair the earbud to your smartphone, just press the Bluetooth button on the earbud and search for the available Bluetooth devices on your smartphone.
