- £ 159 / £ 189 (approx. $ 200 / $ 240)
Xiaomi’s new BUDs 5 Pro is launched in Europe and is available in two flavors, Standard Buds 5 Pro and Buds 5 Pro Wi-Fi. Both models have a very impressive specification, but Wi-Fi Dem is especially impressive: they are capable of delivering loss-free sound with up to 4.2 Mbps over their Wi-Fi connection. It is far beyond everything the best bluetooth headphones can deliver.
KNOPS 5 Pro Wi-Fi has Qualcomms S7 Pro Chip and Qualcomms Snapdragon Sound Technology Suite, which supports audio of up to 96 kHz/24-bit. However, there is a warning: It only works with certain smartphones. Xiaomi says it will send a list of compatible devices on its site immediately. Right now, the only supported phones are Xiaomi 15 and 15 ultra.
