Should not be buried in the millet headset public beta audition

The repositioned Xiaomi hopes to launch a shock to the high-end market through music. The 499 yuan Xiaomi headset is a real weapon or a test piece. We don’t know, we only know that its public beta has arrived at us now. Studio, we only know to receive the goods with your ears.

Of course, now this batch of headphones has been labeled "public beta", which means that the texts I wrote down reflect this product, which may be different from what everyone really pays for. As for what changes will happen, we are naturally not sure. The headphones have also given some feedback to the creation of this headset. Of course, these opinions are also based on personal listening preferences. Over.

The diaphragm material of Xiaomi headphones uses a diaphragm and uses a semi-open moving coil design with a unit diameter of 50 mm.

The random line is microphone and remote, and may only be available in the future when the market is available. The wire below the splitter is nylon wrapped, the above is plastic, and the wire used by Xiaomi is silver plated. The front plug is 3.5 mm gold plated, and the plug on the unit end is 2.5 mm, which means that the earphone can be changed (of course, the cable is changed).

There is a microphone on the remote control, and the only button, because the functionality of this headset is not the focus of this evaluation, so it has not been studied. Xiaomi’s official website claims that the wire-controlled part uses a solderless design, the headphone cable. Directly through the line control, so as not to affect the sound quality.

There are two kinds of original earmuffs, ear-type earmuffs and all-inclusive earmuffs. The former is obviously inferior to the latter, especially for users who wear glasses.

The head beam is wrapped in faux leather, plus red stitching and the millet logo.

There is a storage box included in the package.

The air filter of the earmuffs, the size and thickness of the two types of earmuffs are not different.

In the actual audition, the choice of earmuffs is very obvious for the hearing of this earphone. When using the earmuffs, the distance between the diaphragm and the ear is pulled farther, and the overall low frequency sense will increase. Some, obviously improve the sense of hearing, when using the all-inclusive earmuffs, the unit diaphragm is very close to the ear, so that the low frequency is obviously thin, too little sense of volume is not conducive to the sense of hearing, the hearing resistance is not good, high frequency Too fierce, so even if it is uncomfortable, personally it is recommended to choose earmuffs to get the best sense of hearing, so all the hearing below is based on the premise of using earmuffs.

And to be honest, this headset will need a long downtime, from Friday to Monday, it took about 50 hours in the middle, and now the sound is very different from the beginning of the sound, it is expected It takes a hundred or two hours to get into the best condition.

Hearing:

The front end for audition includes but is not limited to: Sony NWZ-ZX1, ​​Samsung Galaxy Note 3, Meizu MX4 Pro.

The tracks used for audition include but are not limited to: Eason Chan, "I am doing", "Baby Song"; Eason Chan & Jacky Cheung, "The Love of the Same Boat"; Li Keqin, "Midnight Serenade"; Faye Wong, "The Sky", "UNPLUGGED"; Ferry"; Zhang Huimei "Seeing Yourself", "Listening to the Sea"; Li Ronghao "Model"; Eagles "California Hotel"; Mariah Carey "Emotions"; 0 Women's 12 Music Square "In the Mood for Love".

Medium and low frequency: There is not much sense of low frequency. Even in the case of using earmuffs, the sense of volume is still a little different from "sufficient". The depth of the dive can be 6 points out of 10 points, and the low frequency is very fast. Even after 50 hours of downtime, I feel a little "tight" and "hard". When I first started the sound, it was naturally tighter and harder. When I enjoyed pop music, the overall rhythm was quite good. However, because the low frequency dive is not deep enough, the feeling is still weak. The amount of the intermediate frequency and the low frequency are also less, which makes the singer's voice (especially Li Ronghao's voice) lack the charm, the singer's voice. There is also a lack of feelings among them.

The natural frequency of the IF is not bad. Although it is still a bit "hard", the vocal positioning is in a medium position, not far from the distance, but it will not be attached to the ear or very close.

High frequency: High frequency is actually a bright spot of this earphone. The ductility is excellent and the brightness is relatively high. Whether it is the high frequency of the orchestral instrument or the drum, it has a very good performance, the overall harder sound. This makes the high frequency very clean and neat, without any muddy water. Even in the works of the women's 12 music workshops, even if many instruments are played at the same time, each instrument performs well, but it is bright and not over-rendered. Feeling, so when enjoying pure music, this performance is very good and worthy of praise. However, when enjoying ordinary pop music, there are often cases where the instrument snatches the vocals that should have some scenes, and the brightness is relatively high. High frequency occasionally brings a messy feeling to the whole sound.

Resolution and Separation: This is another highlight. Among all the tracks, whether it is the separation of vocals and instruments, or the separation between instruments and instruments, this headset is very good, the sounds are relatively similar. Both the guzheng and the dulcimer can be clearly distinguished. The vibrato of the harmonica and the guitar sound is also very good and very clear, but it is because sometimes the high frequency is too bright, and sometimes there is a feeling of excess information.

Sound field and image: Thanks to the semi-open design, the sound field of the earphone is naturally very broad, and the naturalness is also very good, but the design of the image seems to be less scientific, and the image of the instrument often precedes the voice. Some, but the vast natural sound field has made an indelible contribution to the improvement of the overall sound tolerance.

other:

Wearing comfort: The ear-type wearing is very uncomfortable for the glasses party. The length of the head beam is also a bit short, but the original earmuffs have good texture and softness.

Easy drive: Although the design of the earphone is for direct push, the sensitivity of 100dB and the impedance of 32 ohms seem to be obvious direct push properties. It can also be sounded when inserted in your own Note 3, but the overall sound is even more Tight, the sound does not stretch, low-frequency dive and high-frequency extension are not the level that should be, so that mobile phone push is not impossible, but need to come out good sound, you need X5 Max or MX4 Pro this kind of thrust is more abundant The phone is gone.

to sum up:

First of all, the workmanship and quality of Xiaomi's headphones and the sense of hearing are very worthy of the price of 499, even better than expected, not to mention the value of money, at least value for money is affirmative The high-frequency performance, the analytical power and the broad natural sound field are all bright spots. In comparison, the thickness of the low-frequency is slightly insufficient, and the overall sound is slightly hard. This should be directly related to the use of the metal diaphragm. As for the metal diaphragm. How much can be changed after opening, it is also after the opening, and if it is necessary to swear two sentences, we will not be late to update.

Using different earmuffs, the sound coming out is different. The overall listening style of the ear-ear type is better and more tolerant. The all-inclusive type of listening is more intense but lacks exquisiteness. I hope that manufacturers can make a trade-off in this regard. While retaining a more comfortable listening experience, it is better to make the wearing comfort better. The original earmuffs are already very soft.

As for the difference in the sense of hearing caused by the use of different earmuffs to make the distance between the unit and the user's ear different, the individual still hopes that the manufacturer will pay more attention to the tuning of the earmuffs when using the different dust-proof net design. At least let the user not have to sacrifice comfort for the sense of hearing.

When domestic mobile phone manufacturers regard audio as a point of adding added value to their mobile phones, the production of headphones has naturally become a matter of course. Xiaomi Note used music playback as a selling point and was put together by Xiaomi. Headphones may just be to highlight the music function of Xiaomi Note, but no matter what, at the price of 499, if you want a pair of headphones with a sharp and tough sound style, Xiaomi head is actually worth listening to, at least It should not be buried.
