We almost always talk about TWS headphones but then when you buy a smartphone the first thing you look at is the presence of the 3,5 mm jack for the earphones, because on balance the comfort and the fact that wired solutions give an equal delay at zero it is priceless. Or rather, the price is less than 5 euros, like the one proposed by the new Redmi Earphones, wired earphones made of metal and with a decidedly high sound quality in consideration of the low price.
The Redmi Earphones are made of aluminum alloy thus giving an above average resistance to shocks and scratches, despite a low weight of only 13 grams. A gem is undoubtedly the presence of the 3,4 mm jack connector with a 90 ° angle, allowing greater comfort, both for the holes positioned at the top and at the bottom of the smartphone.
Inside the metal structure we find 10 mm drivers that offer dynamic basses net of crystal clear mid and high frequencies. The sound quality is so high that the new Redmi Earphones enjoy the Hi-Res certification, a real pride by virtue of the small sale price.

The classic in-ear design with silicone rubber pads is adopted, but the company is keen to specify that the design in general has been improved to facilitate wearability in the ear, avoiding sweat and ear wax hindering the sound output from the driver.
We have a cable with a length of 1,25 meters in which a small remote control is positioned with which to manage music playback as well as manage calls and call up the voice assistant, but unfortunately there is no volume rocker. In fact, the Redmi Earphones are also excellent for making phone calls, as they enjoy the presence of two HD microphones that improve audio quality and reduce ambient noise during telephone conversation.
