Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY
| Dynamic Driver | Bluetooth |
? Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY, the latest neckband from Xiaomi.
The Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY is not only the latest model from the brand but also the first one with an earbud and neckband design.
If you ever wished a wireless neckband/neckbud and an earbud with a semi-in ear design, the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic is your dream came true. In fact, the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic are an hybrid made of the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones LYXQEJ01JY and the Xiaomi Mi Dual Driver Earphones BRE01JY
The neckband itself has the same outstanding build and design of the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones LYXQEJ01JY (that we reviewed some time ago) and way better than the MEIZU EP52, MEIZU EP52 Lite, Bluedio T Energy / TN ANC – the construction quality of the neck piece could be even ranked not far away from the 1MORE Triple Driver BT In-Ear Headphones.
Some Bluetooth earphones have a magnetic back housing’s attaching system to keep the earpieces together while not been used, the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / LYXQEJ02JY does not have this magnetic system but the brand has wisely placed a cable clip to do the same job.
As with, nearly, every Xiaomi headphone, the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / LYXQEJ02JY are usually seen online with incorrect names. The most common wrong names found are: Xiaomi Collar Bluetooth Headset Youth, Xiaomi Necklace Bluetooth, Xiaomi Bluetooth Collar Youth Edition, Xiaomi Young Edition, Xiaomi Collar Earphone and Xiaomi Necklace Bluetooth Earphone Wireless Earbuds Young Version.
This is a tendency from resellers that we have seen with every Xiaomi headphone that we have reviewed, for example the:
The unit can provide 7 hours of battery life and can be fully charged in, just, 1 hour.

Accessories & Packaging
The Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY unboxing results in, simply, the user manual.
The packaging is clean looking and minimalist with a style inline with the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Foldable Headset and even with the super popular Xiaomi Mi Band 3.

B
Bass & Sub Bass
The Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY bass is sufficiently punchy but lacks depth.
Mid-bass will be able to cover many genres without issues but their “not so deep” sub-bass might fall behind when tracks demand a strong response in this range.
Their bass is tuned for people liking conservative and shallow-tending lower frequencies.
Applying an EQ, some extra punch is added and a bit extra depth can be squeezed but sub-bass will still not get too deep.

Mids & Vocals
The Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY mids have open, clean sound with good warmth.
Male vocals are distant and laid back but not congested. Higher mids and female vocals are crisp and more emphasized than lower mids.
Despite the more present upper midrange response they are not harsh.
A custom EQ can feed their lower mids making them more alive but will conserve their sound style – also be sure not to bump up their upper mids to avoid harshness.

H
Highs & Treble
The Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY highs resolve a bit of detail and offer some brightness but have a tendency to show a darkish personality unless volume is significantly cranked up.
Piecing and sibilant highs are not extremely frequent if volume if kept within moderate but can start to show up at higher volume settings.
With an EQ, brightness is incremented but also piercing highs. Do not expect groundbreaking results.

Sound Leak
The sound leaking out of the Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY is slightly less noticeable than on many average earphones and quiet unexpectedly low for an earbud.

SI
Sound Isolation
The sound isolation provided by the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic / Xiaomi LYXQEJ02JY is as expected from a semi-in ear / earbud styled headphone, which means that does not provide a lot of isolation from surrounding noises.
Nonetheless, by dialing up the volume their isolation capabilities get exponentially more efficient

Comfort
The Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic have the exact same housings of the Xiaomi Mi Dual Driver Earphones BRE01JY, the comfort level and fit is also identical with a pain-free experience and particularly secure fit for an earbud.
The neckband design gives the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Neckband Earphones Basic a much more stable and friendly fit than normal Bluetooth earphones, such as the:
- Jaybird Freedom
- KZ BTE
- Xiaomi Mi Sports Bluetooth Headphones
- Jabra Sport Pulse
- MEIZU EP51
- BlitzWolf BW-ANC1
- JBL EVEREST 100
- BlitzWolf BW-BTS1
- URBANFUN Bluetooth BTBM-1 / BMBT-1
- QCY M1 PRO
At the same time, the earbud design is less invasive than normal in-ear monitors which might be welcomed by people that do not find themselves with the fit of earphones.

Response to Equalization
The response to EQ of the Xiaomi Necklace Bluetooth Earphone Wireless Earbuds Young Version was acceptably efficient on some ranges but neither presented an extreme makeover.
