Pairing the Redmi Earbuds S to your smartphone is a pretty straightforward process and as easy as it could be, its similar to plug and play system and doesn’t require user to download any sort of app. Simply remove the earbuds from the case and wait for 2-3 seconds for your phone to detect them. Alternatively, you can also pair the Redmi Earbuds S with a PC/laptop, both Windows and Mac. You can also pair them with devices like the your Smart TV’s or even the newly Mi Box 4K. Bluetooth 5.0 ensures seamless pairing and range is also quite good (Xiaomi claims up to 10m) which considering how small and inexpensive these Redmi Earbuds S are. But what’s really striking about the Redmi Earbuds S is how solid their connectivity is. There have been no “noticeable” instances of signal drops or any sorts of failures during our testing.
Considering the price and regardless of what Redmi is offering we should note that being the most affordable TWS in India, some corners were cut in making the Redmi Earbuds S available to us, that includes:
· We can only pair the Redmi Earbuds S with a single device at a time.
· Secondly, the Redmi Earbuds S do not support instant or Google’s fast pairing, not even with Redmi or Mi phones like what we have seen earlier with Realme Buds Air And Mi True Wireless Earphones 2.
· The Redmi Earbuds S also do not have any infrared sensors to automatically detect when you have them on, or when you have taken them off, to start or stop the playback.
You can choose to use the Redmi Earbuds S in mono or stereo though, which does have its use cases, especially while on calls for a long time or while sleeping.
