Xiaomi AirDots are a $ 29 alternative to Apple's $ 159 AirPods – BGR



[ad_1]

The AirPods are without a doubt one of the best products launched by Apple in the last two years. For $ 169, you get a pair of wireless headphones that looks a lot like normal iPhone headphones. They are easy to pair, they offer an excellent sound experience and they even incorporate some smart features. But competitors are redoubling their efforts to offer AirPods, and the AirDots from Xiaomi are the newest AirPod competitors.

At $ 169, the AirPods are much more affordable than we originally thought, but Xiaomi will further reduce the price entry if you buy wireless headphones. The AirDots cost only about $ 29 (199 yuan in China), but offer some of the same features you'd expect from the AirPod rivals.

We're looking for ear buds that look good in your ear and charge wirelessly via a carrying case, just like the AirPods. You get 4 hours of audio time per charge and the case can charge the AirDots three times for a total battery life of 12 hours. They connect to devices via Bluetooth 5.0 and support user interaction, allowing you to tap the shell to trigger specific commands.

It's unclear whether Xiaomi will be able to compete with Apple in all AirPods, but at $ 30, the AirDots are still a bargain, if you're looking for affordable wireless headphones. Besides, at this price, they could be bundled with smartphones in the not too distant future.

It's unclear if the AirDots will be available in international markets, but Xiaomi's Chinese fans will be able to pre-order theirs on November 11th.
