Performance

Audio Quality

The Redmi Buds 3 Pro deliver a very polished sound signature across the entire spectrum. Equipped with 9mm composite vibrating diaphragm coil drivers, they aim to recover more sound details, providing clear highs and rich bass. While not marketed as high-resolution audio, the sound quality is considered excellent for its price point, offering a balanced profile with sufficient bass and clear vocals.

Latency

For gaming, the latency is acceptable, though not the lowest on the market. For videos and movies, there is no noticeable delay, providing a smooth viewing experience.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Redmi Buds 3 Pro, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Regularly clean the earbuds and charging case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
• Ear Tips: Remove and clean the ear tips periodically. You can wash them with mild soap and water, ensuring they are completely dry before reattaching.
• Water Resistance: The earbuds are IPX4 sweat and splash resistant. This means they can withstand light splashes of water and sweat, making them suitable for workouts. However, they are not waterproof. Do not submerge them in water or expose them to heavy rain.
• Storage: When not in use, store the earbuds in their charging case to protect them from dust, dirt, and physical damage.

  • Turn off and on Bluetooth on your device.
  • Forget the device in your Bluetooth settings and re-pair.

• Low Volume:
  • Adjust the volume on your connected device.
  • Ensure ear tips are properly sealed in your ear canal.
  • Clean any debris from the earbud speakers.
