Xiaomiis expanding its catalog of technological products with a new series of headphones. These are the Xiaomi OpenWear Stereo, ear conduction headphones that promise to compete with the Huawei FreeClip.

Among their features, it is noted that they are equipped with custom 17 x 12 millimeter drivers and DLC diaphragms. They are compatible with the LHDC codec and high-resolution audio and have 10-millimeter sound reduction, which would prevent sound from leaking.
They also have IP54 water resistance, with two microphones that reduce external noise during calls. Their battery promises to last 7.5 hours on a single charge.
