REDMI BUDS 6 PRO REVIEW SUMMARY:
Redmi's latest iteration of their Buds Pro range offers triple drivers, support for various hi-res codecs, improved ANC and call performance, as well as spatial audio and head tracking - something rarely seen at this price.
The performance, as expected, doesn't quite live up to the hype, but there's reasons to consider them - the ANC outperforms many of its peers, in most scenarios call clarity and noise reduction is excellent, and the ergonomics certainly suited me. They do lack some features though, such as wireless charging and gaming mode, and frequent connectivity issues - something seemingly part and parcel of every Redmi release - left me tearing my hair out.
Please note - this review is of the CN domestic release, not the global version.

Full Disclaimer:
This is a hobby for me and I made the decision a long time ago that I would never take payment from a manufacturer in exchange for a review. I am a former DJ, producer and tour manager who has a busy and well-paid day job, but reviewing audio products fills a void in my spare time now I'm no longer involved in the music industry.
I made the decision when I started reviewing that I wouldn't put any core content behind a paywall, so there is no Patreon nor subscription fees - all measurements, samples & content is free of charge, enabling viewers in poorer countries to benefit too. I may in the future consider a subscription model but only if I can offer something extra and I really think it's worth it. Don't hold your breath!
I am naturally sent some stuff for free by manufacturers who are looking to enhance visibility of their products, but the majority of what I review is paid for by me. Since I started reviewing, I've paid for at least one set of earbuds or headphones from every single brand that has featured on the channel. Some are even sent by friends and subscribers, and in each case I conduct the reviews with the same mindset and consistent, repeatable and defensible methodology.
When I receive free product, reviews are on my terms. I have full creative license over content & format. I include product links & manufacturer specifications/marketing material, but that's as far as it goes.
If brands don't agree with my terms, I won't work with them. Over the last few years I've stopped working with some for even rushing me when I'm busy. I'm here to enjoy doing this and to help people, not profit. Encouragingly, the overwhelming majority of brands agree to these terms.
I include objective tests in every review - far more than other TWS reviewers. This is a measure of objectivity - you will rarely ever see me recommend a product or brand outright, I always urge viewers where possible to watch my videos so they can make better informed decisions. I am not a 'trust me bro' reviewer and never will be.
Obviously, I cannot fund the channel 100% out of my own pocket, so to help pay for new earbuds I sell some of what I receive to fellow audio enthusiasts at a vastly reduced rate. I receive a small kick-back from affiliate links but they're not specific to that product (i.e. if you buy something else, I still get a small percentage). I also accept donations via Ko-Fi if you feel like my reviews have helped you in some way.
Ethics is a key consideration. I am 100% transparent over how I work. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
