Xiaomi has added a new audio product to its lineup with the launch of the Redmi Clip Neo, its first clip-on earbuds. The new earbuds were introduced in China on 27 October 2026 alongside the Redmi K100, and they arrive at a price that is roughly half of Xiaomi’s original clip earbuds launched in May.
Design and Comfort
The Redmi Clip Neo uses an open-ear clip-on design that sits on the ear instead of going inside the ear canal. Each bud weighs only 5.3g, so it stays light even during long use. A flexible titanium C-bridge connects the two parts of each bud and helps it fit securely. The earbuds come in two colors: Zero Black and Pearl White. Buttons on the buds handle basic controls.
Audio Features
The earbuds pack 12mm dual-magnetic drivers that deliver the sound. They connect over Bluetooth 5.4 and support the SBC and AAC audio codecs. Two-device connection lets users stay paired with two devices at the same time, and AI call noise reduction helps keep calls clear in noisy surroundings.
Battery Life
Battery life is one of the main highlights. The earbuds offer up to 7 hours of playback on a single charge, and the charging case extends the total to up to 32 hours. Each bud carries a 46mAh battery, while the case holds a 520mAh battery. The case charges through USB-C.
Price and Availability
The Redmi Clip Neo is priced at CNY 399 (about $60) in China, with a limited edition available at CNY 449 (about $67). For comparison, Xiaomi’s original clip earbuds launched in May cost about $120, so the Clip Neo is roughly half that price. The earbuds are available in China only for now, and no international availability has been announced. No Pakistan price has been announced.
