Xiaomi has launched the Redmi Buds 8 Active (Vitality Edition) in China. The new wireless earbuds focus on sound quality, stable connectivity, and long battery life at a low price.
The earbuds use a 14.2 mm large dynamic driver with a titanium-plated diaphragm. This setup is designed to deliver clearer sound and stronger bass. The earbuds also support the AAC audio codec, which helps maintain audio quality during wireless playback.
Xiaomi has added wind noise reduction that works at speeds of up to 6 meters per second. This helps reduce noise when listening outdoors or while moving. For calls, the earbuds use dual microphones with AI call noise reduction. The system is designed to filter background noise and improve voice clarity during calls.
The Redmi Buds 8 Active (Vitality Edition) use a semi-in-ear design. This is similar to the design used in the Redmi Buds 8 Lite that was recently launched globally. The earbuds rest lightly in the ear and are designed for everyday use and longer listening sessions.
Battery life is one of the main highlights. Each earbud includes a 37 mAh battery. Xiaomi says the earbuds can deliver up to 7 hours of playback on a single charge. The charging case carries a 475 mAh battery. With the case, the total listening time can reach up to 37 hours.
For connectivity, the earbuds support Bluetooth 5.4. This version helps improve connection stability and power efficiency. The earbuds also come with an IP54 rating, which protects them from dust and water splashes from any direction.
The Redmi Buds 8 Active (Vitality Edition) support Xiaomi HyperOS Connect. This allows features such as smart device search, dual device connection, audio sharing, and quick pairing pop-ups when used with compatible Xiaomi devices. The earbuds also work with the Xiaomi Earbuds app for additional settings and controls.

In China, the Redmi Buds 8 Active (Vitality Edition) are priced at 119 yuan. The earbuds are available in three colors: Transparent Blue, Matte Black, and Cream White. Information about a possible global launch has not been announced yet.
