Audio Performance
At the heart of the Buds 6 is a custom triple-magnet dynamic driver with a 24K gold-plated diaphragm. The drivers cover a wide frequency range of 16 Hz to 40 kHz, and the earbuds support 24-bit/48kHz high-resolution audio. Codec support spans SBC, AAC, aptX Adaptive, and aptX Lossless, catering to both casual listeners and audiophiles who want bit-perfect wireless audio. Harman tuning brings AudioEFX processing for clear vocals, a dedicated master mode for deep bass, and a full suite of EQ presets so users can tailor the sound to their preference.
Active Noise Cancellation and Smart Features
The Buds 6 ship with Active Noise Cancellation capable of handling wind speeds up to 12 m/s — a level of performance typically reserved for over-ear headphones. An independent recording system enables real-time transcription, making these earbuds practical for meetings and note-taking on the go. The earbuds also support both Xiaomi Find and Apple Find for easy location tracking if misplaced.
Battery Life and Durability
On a single charge the Buds 6 deliver up to 6 hours of playback. Combined with the charging case the total runtime stretches to 35 hours with ANC off, or 20 hours with ANC switched on — figures that comfortably cover a full day of heavy use.
