Xiaomi: Turn Off Vibration for Incoming Calls

If your Xiaomi phone buzzes loudly on a hard surface every time someone calls, or you can barely feel it while it sits in your pocket, the call vibration setting is likely working against you. This option controls only the vibration for incoming calls, independent from message or app notification vibration. Getting it wrong means either annoying buzzing on a desk or missed calls when the phone is muted and out of sight.

Turn Call Vibration On or Off auf Xiaomi

Vibration for incoming calls on a Xiaomi phone is controlled separately from vibration for messages and app alerts. If a call still buzzes after you silenced the ringer, or the phone barely vibrates in your pocket, this specific toggle is the setting to check.

The option lives under sound settings and only affects calls, not notifications. Turning it off is useful when the phone sits on a desk near you, since a loud vibration on a hard surface can be more disruptive than the ringtone itself. Turning it on helps when the phone is in a pocket or bag and you rely on feel rather than sound to notice a call.

Where to change it

Go to SettingsSound & vibration ➔ enable or disable Vibrate for calls. The switch applies immediately, no restart needed.

If the phone still vibrates after disabling this option, check whether a silent or vibrate-only profile is active, since some system modes can override individual sound settings temporarily.

Frequently asked questions

No. Vibrate for calls only affects incoming calls. Message and app notification vibration are managed by separate settings for each app or notification channel.
