The Redmi Buds 5 Pro are certified for High-Resolution Wireless Audio and support the LDAC audio codec with a sampling rate of up to 24bit/96kHz, allowing for Ultra HD sound with minimal distortion.
Custom Coaxial Dual Driver Design
The Redmi Buds 5 Pro feature a coaxial dual-driver design, consisting of an 11 mm bass driver with a titanium diaphragm and a 10 mm piezoelectric ceramic tweeter. This design offers accurate sound reproduction across all frequencies, ensuring balanced performance with smooth highs, rich mids, and steady lows, so you can always enjoy high-quality Hi-Fi sound.
Active noise cancellation up to 52 dB
With 52 dB active noise cancellation technology, the noise reduction capability has tripled compared to the Redmi Buds 4 Pro, allowing you to enjoy your music in peace.
Three transparency modes
In normal transparency mode, you can hear ambient sounds without missing a beat. When you want to talk to someone face-to-face, you can switch to voice enhancement mode. The new "ambient sound enhancement mode" captures subtle details from the environment, ensuring the user's safety at all times.
3-Microphone Noise Cancellation + AI for Calls
The headphones feature 3 microphones combined with an AI-based noise reduction algorithm to target and eliminate ambient noise during calls and withstand noise generated by wind at 9 m/s, making clear communication possible even in noisy environments.
Long Battery Life
Enjoy up to 10 hours of playback with a single charge or up to 38 hours when using the charging case, so you can listen to music for as long as you want. With powerful fast charging, a 5-minute charge provides up to 2 hours of music playback.
Touch Control
Gently tap the touch-sensitive area of the headset to change the song, pause it, answer and end calls, as well as perform other functions.

Incredibly poor ANC having tried every possible setting.
The case discharges very quickly.
The connection to their app is problematic.
No comparison to the cheaper and excellent QCY Melobuds.
Guys, I am impressed with the headphones! Super easy connection, the app is very user-friendly, amazing sound volume without any distortion, full bass, and the noise cancellation is there without being annoying. 5 stars for fun!
Positives
- Sound quality (Hi-Res, LDAC, 96.0KHz sample rate and 32 bits/sample)
- Price
- Microphone
- Volume
- ANC
- Battery
- Easy and reliable connectivity
Negatives
- Ear fit (subjective)
- Passive noise cancellation, perhaps due to the ear fit but not.
- Limited sound customization from the app
In summary: The headphones for 50 euros are worth it and then some. They have fantastic sound, the app provides some extra features, and the microphone is relatively good for phone calls.
Everything is perfect except for one thing that I don't know if it happens to others as well. Sometimes during a conversation, the sound cuts out and comes back continuously 4-5 times, which makes me take off the headset because I can't talk
It really worth every euro I spent. With regular daily use, they easily lasted me 10 days. Very fast connection with the phone as well as quite good noise cancellation.
I accidentally ordered the color aurora purple but its outer side is gray and it is very unique. Very good sound, very good NC to the point that I look around everywhere to make sure no car runs over me. From the qcy 13 I had, it is a serious upgrade.
From the beginning, it didn't connect with the iPhone 13; I had to download their app. The main problem was that it didn't isolate surrounding sounds, and when the water was running in the faucet, it interrupted my conversation partner. I sent them back for a replacement, but I wouldn't prefer them anymore. For the money, they weren't cheap; I wouldn't buy them again.
Excellent sound and noise cancelation; perfect connectivity and great bass. only problem is, the case has no location tracker so, once they were misplaced, we lost them...
I wanted the headphones mainly for music.
Pros:
Very good sound and easy to connect
Cons:
If I wear them for a long time, they tire me out, and also if I am in an outdoor space and talking on a call, I am not heard clearly
After a week of excessive use, I have to say that they are excellent. I was a user of the Redmi Buds 3 pro. The upgrade to 5 was due to wear and tear of the previous ones. The sound is very good. Very loud (this is what I wanted because I am a bit hard of hearing). Clear sound. EXCELLENT BATTERY. fast charging. Very good connectivity. I definitely recommend them. Very VFM.
Enthusiastic supporter of Xiaomi and Redmi. I was excited about these, especially with the noise cancellation, which when I activated it on the street, as a pedestrian, I constantly had to look right and left to avoid being hit by anyone. Coming from the Redmi Buds 4 Pro, which had a malfunction in one earbud after a few months (I took it to the service of the store where I bought them, they were unacceptable, they fixed it after a lot of hassle, and after 2 months the same thing happened again), so I didn't bother anymore and got these.
As it turns out, I might be unlucky because these too, after 5 months, one earbud malfunctioned again.
I tried to fix it myself, after many resets, where sometimes the right one connected, sometimes the left, and sometimes none at all, I decided to take it to the service of another store where I bought them.
I don't know where this will lead, what the service will tell me, if they will fix it or replace it (I will have to wait without earbuds for at least 2 weeks again), but these will be the last Xiaomi earbuds I buy. The first time, you could say I was unlucky and got a defective batch, the second time? Unlucky again...?
Buy at your own risk, that's all I can say. They might work great for you, because when they work, they are very good for their price, but if you end up with a defective batch, good luck to you, just like me!!!
The case fell into water for about 5 seconds, it floated and didn't get damaged, regarding the issue of not connecting quickly or with the app that others mention, at first I had a small issue but it got fixed
I come from the earphones 3 pro, an excellent piece in durability, I have had it for about 4 years and the battery still lasts, it never lost connection and is very comfortable, however, I tried the 5 and was blown away by the difference in sound quality, the nc is 30% better than the three, unfortunately, they are not very comfortable in the ears, I would like different rubber tips to find the right fit which it didn't have, very poor packaging compared to the 3, which also didn't have an app, the app on the 5 is quite good and has three different touch functions, I consider the purchase very good
In general, they are convenient and have decent sound for their price. They have very poor noise canceling and are definitely not suitable for exercising. Every time I have worked out with them, they fall out within the first few minutes. Even when I eat with them, they come out of place. When I talk, fortunately, they don’t fall out as easily, but I definitely need to adjust them often. My complaints are mainly about this reason, that is, the very poor fit. I would expect the battery life to be better. They connect to the phone easily, but sometimes they don’t disconnect even when placed in their case. Their automations are average but get the job done. Their microphone is decent to good. Overall, they are fine for wearing at the office and for a walk at most. If you want them for light use, they are fine, but for other uses, I think it’s better to invest in something else.
Pros: Easy connection and settings, relatively good sound.
Cons:
- Short BT range, disconnects with the slightest movement from the device.
- Uncomfortable ear cushions.
- The quality, although okay for the price, is not particularly special.
- The battery without ANC is barely okay; with ANC on, it needs constant charging (especially if you use it continuously for many hours).
The reason I gave 2 stars instead of 1 is that I understand I might have received a defective piece, as I read from reviews on Reddit and other places about several similar cases.
Very good headphones, the noise cancellation is very good and the sound when I listen to music. The battery is just fine and lasts easily a week and more, what bothers me is that they don't sit well in my ears, they keep falling out.
Initially, I bought the same headphones a month ago coming from the AirPods. Just yesterday, I bought another set. They are really worth the money. I ALSO have to mention the company from which they were purchased. The order was placed the day before yesterday, and I received them yesterday!!!!
The headphones have good build quality and sound. The noise cancellation works very well even though I didn't expect it. The sound volume is satisfactory. The only negative I have noticed is that they don't fit properly in my ears.
After a month of use, I am absolutely satisfied. I find them exactly as I wanted. Always very easy to connect, high volume as I was looking for mainly for music and series. They charge in just a few minutes, they do not discharge quickly. The connection does not easily drop if you go a few meters away. For me, they are worth it completely. Also, they do not fall out of the ear.
I come from the Sony WF-1000XM4, because I lost one earbud but also because they had microphone issues almost from the start, even with all the updates... These are a very honest purchase, in sound quality, battery life, and how you sound on the phone. Although it's early, very positive impressions.
Very good for the money you spend. For me, they don't last more than 5 to 6 hours of continuous use with noise cancellation off, but I don't need it that much. Recently, on the OnePlus 8T, they didn't connect directly to the phone, and I had to put them back in the case and take them out again. Noise cancellation is satisfactory... nothing amazing, but okay. The sound is above average as well. The microphone is very good; I had no complaints during calls... for the 50 euros I spent, they are very good and of quality...
The app has connection issues with Samsung phones as you will notice in the comments. My S23 Ultra does not connect to the app (it connected only once at the beginning), thus all their functions such as noise cancellation, sound differentiation, etc., become unusable. Also, after six months of use and after 1-2 small drops, I now feel something moving inside while running, and I hear it as an annoying sound in my ear. Finally, the three different ear tips are almost identical to each other, resulting in none fitting well in the ear, and after a few minutes of use, they need to be pushed back in. The sound is slightly better than the QTCs I had before for 20 euros. On the positive side, when you take them out of your ear, the music stops, and as soon as you put them back in, it plays again.
I haven't found headphones with a longer battery life, I've had them for 3 months and I've charged them 3 times, I work several hours on the computer. They also completely cut out external sounds, I have a baby and nothing can be heard by the person I'm talking to even when the baby is crying
