Hey, what’s up? Sami here.
Today we are going to take a quick look at the Redmi Buds 4 Pro.
I bought it out of my own pocket several days ago and I’m not getting paid or anything,
so you can trust me for this review.
In this video I will cover as much as possible, which includes unboxing,
software walkthrough
and gesture controls those.
So, it's a long video. I've marked the timeline for each section
so you can jump to the part you want to watch.
This pair of earbuds cost around $60, definitely not that cheap and it doesn’t even offer wireless charging.
There are lots of cheap ones on the market that come with this feature, right?
But after several days of use, it really surprised me. The Buds 4 Pro not only offers good specs, like
43 dB noise cancelling, 59ms game low latency, Bluetooth 5.3, super long battery life, etc. but
also gives me an awesome user experience. It’s definitely worth your buck. You know what’s

Without further ado, let's get started.
Open the box that's the earbuds.
this matte finish this glossy, not glossy this matte finish is good because it's not easy to
get the fingerprints or smudges right? here the type c charging port, reset button.
this is the indicator. Redmi. okay good. we'll take a closer look later.
Type c short cable, redmi buds 4 pro, this is the quick guide this should be
the earbuds the ear tips sorry actually two pair of them that's all the stuff you can get in the box.
lightweight oh it says touch area, non-touch area all right so you have to touch here to
conduct gestures. okay so on top we have the secondary mic also the in-ear detection sensor
while at the bottom of the stem we have the charging contacts and the main mic
and that's basically the design i wouldn't say it looks like airpods pro because it is exactly
like the airpods pro anyway let me connect to my phone. go to your Bluetooth list and then we see
the redmi buds 4 pro then we click pairing okay pair and connecting, wait for a few seconds okay
active now and one hundred percent battery okay that's it yeah very very simple here. in order to
have more settings you have to install xiaoai voice assistant now we connected to your voice
assistant okay click a we have more settings here that's right we can see the battery life
you know battery left like at 100 for the earbuds and 86 percent for the charging case and here is
the gesture control you can double tap uh triple tap and long press you can see here you can either
choose this uh the the noise cancellation or activate Xiaoai voice assistant and also here you
can choose different oh yeah that's great that's great so here like a triple tab you can choose
next sound or last a song and also you can choose the volume up or down that's great that's great
it's all customizable but in this gesture the default mode is is what it is you know
i will show you later so that's the design also we have the noise canceling mode here
okay we got we have this uh wear detection and this is the surround that surround sound
360 serum sound so when you turn on it should give you a more you know surrender sound but i haven't
tested that i don't know if it's alright okay yeah you do get you do get a more like a settings here
which is good which is good but like i said i i tried to download this version to see our
voice assistant but it just won't turn to english right it's what china is maybe if i use a xiaoi
maybe i use a xiaomi phone it it came but currently i don't own a xiaomi phone okay that's that's
the app one thing i want to show you is it is supports dual device connection so this is
another phone from OPPO, in order to connect the second device you have to put your earbuds
into the case okay and that and then press the reset button for two seconds
all right you see the white indicator flashes and that's the pairing mode all right and
puts that and go to your second phone's bluetooth list to another bluetooth if you haven't
and find the redmi the redmi buds 4 pro and click waiting to pair and click pair
okay now connected in use for calls and media playback blah blah blah here connected and also
this we see it's connected right i normally don't use earbuds like this so here but i kind of think
maybe you want because you want to connect to your laptop and second connect to your phone
so you can switch you know to different devices and that's that's a good thing
so do you use this like this way?
Anyway let's move to the gesture controls shall we?
all right now gesture controls it's very simple you press twice to play or pause music or answer the phone call
pause, play right? Currently there's no one calling me so i can show you that.
and press three times to go to next sound
Long press the touch area to switch between the transparent mode and active noise cancelling mode
transparent mode
you will have a beep to remind you that yeah that's the just control like i said you can
customize different gestures in the app in the Xiaoai voice assistant app but i'm not sure if
it has international version but for the Chinese version it's all good.
Now about the latency tests.
A little bit latency i guess the gaming is like the best.
all right That’s my unboxing and first look. To be honest I’m surprised by its performance. When
I bought the Buds 4 Pro I thought to myself I would sell it after this review, but now I want
to keep using it for a while. It offers a fast connection, good audio quality, though I’m not
an audiophile guy, I can tell which sounds good or bad. And the Buds 4 Pro offers crystal clear,
full-bodied and balanced sound. The active noise-cancelling is good, though I feel it’s not
as good as the Airpods Pro or as I imagined.
It’s still good.
And the most impressive thing
is the low latency, whether you are using for gaming or video watching.
For me personally I guess this is the first budget earbuds that offer this
awesome low latency feature and I love it.
That’s the video, thanks for watching and don’t forget to
