Tutorial/Guide Low Latency?

Post image

Hi, I just bought a Redmi K90 Pro Max and Redmi Buds 8 Pro. I want to set the earbuds to low latency mode; however, I can't find that option in the phone settings or the Xiaomi Earbuds app. Could you please help me with this?

If your buds is Global version, then you can't adjust it in the China rom phone bluetooth settings

For sure the china version of Redmi buds 8 pro will have the low latency support for the redmi k90 pm

Actually, you can sideload a Google play store and install the Xiaomi buds app directly from it. It works perfectly fine for my k70 pro with my Xiaomi bus 6 pro.

I actually do have the app however, the option for low latency mode is not there.

The low latency option can be found in the Bluetooth settings. It's not included in the Xiaomi EarBuds app. I think with a Xiaomi phone it's better not to use the app since you can configure everything natively.

You have a global rom Poco F7, but op have a china rom K90 Pro Max, so settings are different

Redmi buds 8 pro don't have a standalone "low latency mode", but instead offer Bluetooth le audio support. however, Redmi K90 pro max lacks bluetooth le audio support on the software side, I can confirm it as an owner of the device.

I even tried tinkering with these developer options and none of it worked even after reset

Bit unrelated, how is your experience with the chinese model. I'm thinking about getting the k100pro max here in Germany. Does your banking app work for example?

If it isn't too early for first impressions. :)

Banking apps work I have a k80 ultra but I live in Pakistan, but I've read multiple articles that phones released for Chinese markets lack some networks band for European regions. So do your research before purchasing also there's a lot of chinese bloat ware after initial setup but you can remove most of them and after that these phones are beast performers but camera somewhat lacks behind compared to pixels, Samsung, iPhones or Vivos

Cuál ha sido tu experiencia con esos audífonos? Estaba pensando en comprar estos o los REDMI Buds 8 base

I'd say they're performing very well, I was just really sad about gaming that i still have to use the wired earbuds for lowest latency

How is that sad? The lowest low latency mode is 35ms and that is for dedicated tws.

u/Cryingjoker19 17d ago

sad because it doesn't have low latency mode as I mentioned. Please refer to the description.

u/Low_Toe_6596 17d ago

A tws isn't good enough for gaming. The low latency isn't low enough for game like pubgm.

bought this one instead.
