Reviewers agree that the Xiaomi Type-C Earphones are a budget-friendly, functional option that works well with multiple USB-C devices and offers no audio lag, making them a solid value for the price.
5:33The reviewer unboxes and tests the Xiaomi Piston USB Type-C earphones with several Android devices, finding them compatible and functional. The sound is notably bass-heavy, which suits bass-heavy music but can detract from vocal clarity in podcasts and audiobooks. Overall, the reviewer gives a positive first impression, especially for the price.
3:07The reviewer finds the Xiaomi Type-C Earphones to be a basic, budget-friendly product with no standout features. The build is entirely plastic, the cable is ordinary, and the included accessories are minimal, but the price justifies the simplicity. The reviewer does not give a strong verdict, noting it's just a normal earphone for the cost.
