</footer><!-- /.post-info --> <p>My one and only phone, Andromeda, is a Redmi Note 4. I purchased it 3 years ago. It initially suffered from problems such as consuming battery for self overheating. But I later switched custom ROMs, Lineage and Havoc OS, and battery started to last more than a day. Andromeda served me well in its 3 years of service and it continues to do so albeit with some hickups.</p>
<p>I am not the best phone user. I actually am a clumsy person who drops his phone on regular basis. So much so that Andromeda's display got replaced once and glass twice. Its glass is broken as I write these lines 😁️</p>
<p>But broken glass isn't the issue. It still detects my touches fairly accurately. Real problem is that, a recent drop resulted <strong>front speaker to stop working</strong> so that I can't hear other person during phone calls and some copper piece come out of headphone jack which rendered <strong>microphone on headsets to not connect</strong> so that other person cannot hear me during a phone call (if I am using a headphone). My temporary solution was to use loud speaker which is annoying and makes private calls difficult. Also it is rude in public. Another option was bluetooth speaker which requires some budget.</p>
<p>I could spare 20$ for a pair bluetooth earphones. Pretty generous huh 😜️<br>
Anyway, after some market search I set my mind on Redmi Airdots.</p>
<p><strong>Do I recommend them?</strong><br>
No and Yes. They aren't the best earphones, not even best in-ear earphones, but they are affordable.<br>
Just like every other in-ear earphones, they aren't comfortable even after I replaced the tips with different size that better fits 😕️ They will do for now. It isn't too much of a deal since I am planning to use them only for calls. Speakers on wired earphones still work with the phone fortunately.</p>
