How to Remove Keyboard Vibration on Xiaomi Redmi Note 10: The Complete Guide

Redmi Note 10 series smartphones have become a popular choice due to their excellent screens and autonomy, but standard MIUI settings often cause users discomfort. One of the most annoying factors when typing is constant tactile return, which not only distracts but also consumes battery power. Many owners of Xiaomi devices are faced with the fact that simply turning off vibration in general settings does not eliminate the problem completely, since the system shares system responses and the work of the virtual keyboard.

In this article, we will discuss how to turn off the vibration of the keyboard on your device using both standard Android tools and specific features of the MIUI shell. You will learn about the hidden settings of Gboard, how to control tactile response through the section “Sound and vibration” and methods of full customization of input. Understanding these nuances will allow you to make using your smartphone more comfortable and silent, especially in situations where complete silence is required.

We will also discuss energy optimization, as the vibrator motor is one of the most visible consumers of energy in the background. Correctly configuring the input parameters will help to extend the life of your Redmi Note 10 from a single charge. Let's move on to practical steps to eliminate unwanted tactile feedback.

System vibrations are set up via the MIUI menu

The first and most obvious step is to check the operating system’s global settings. The MIUI shell has its own tactile response management layer that acts on top of standard Android settings. If Touch Vibration is enabled here, the keyboard will vibrate regardless of the input application settings. To access these settings, you need to open the main settings menu of your smartphone.

In the list that opens, look for the Sound and Vibration section, and inside this menu, you're interested in a subsection that might be called Vibration or Additional Vibration settings. This is where the interface tactile response switch is located, and disabling that option will remove the vibration when you press navigation buttons, interact with interface elements, and, importantly, when you type if the keyboard uses a system driver.

However, it is worth considering that in some versions of the firmware, the keyboard settings take precedence over the system ones. So even after turning off the general vibration, the keyboard can continue to vibrate. In this case, you need to check whether the "Tactile response" mode is activated in the sound profile. Switching the profile to "No Sound" or "Vibration Only" (with the subsequent switching off the vibration slider) can also solve the problem globally.

⚠️ Warning: Disabling system vibration in this section may cause you to stop feeling the response not only from the keyboard, but also from volume control buttons or confirmations in other applications.

Turning off vibration directly in Gboard

Most Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 smartphones have Google’s Gboard keyboard installed by default, and this app has its own settings that work independently of Android system settings. To get to them, you’ll need to go to the settings menu of the smartphone itself, find the “Additional Settings” section, and select Language and Input. This is where you manage all the input methods you’re connected.

In the keyboard list, select Gboard (or Gboard Settings). In the menu that opens, find the Settings section, which is usually at the top of the list. Inside, you'll see "Vibration on Press" (or "Key Vibration"). The slider next to this item is responsible for the intensity of the tactile response during the time of printing. By moving it to the "Off" position or setting "0 ms", you completely turn off the keyboard vibration.

It is important to note that newer versions of Gboard can have settings hidden deeper.If you don't see the slider right away, try tapping the gear icon at the top of the keyboard while typing, then go to Settings» → «Press vibration. You can also adjust the duration of the vibration here if you don't want to shut down completely, but you want to make the response less intrusive.

Management through the section "Language and input"

The MIUI Language and Input System Partition is the central hub for managing all aspects of text input. Not only can you configure a specific keyboard, but you can also change the default settings for all applications. Go to Settings → Additional Settings → Language and input. Make sure that the current keyboard is the one you use (such as the Gboard or Mi Keyboard).

If you're using a standard Mi Keyboard, the path will be slightly different. After selecting the current keyboard, click on the gear next to its name. In the Mi Keyboard settings menu, look for the "Sound and Vibration" or "Preferences" section. There should also be a haptic recoil switch. Make sure you edit the settings of the active keyboard, since there may be several of them in the system.

In this section, it is useful to check the autocorrection and predictive input settings. Sometimes the vibration does not occur every time you press, but only when you activate autocorrection or select a word from the prompts. Turning off the sound effects and vibrations for these events will also help you achieve the desired silence. Remember to save the changes if the system requires confirmation.

Use of Do Not Disturb Mode and Sound Profiles

To temporarily turn off vibrations, such as during a meeting or in a movie theater, the best way to do this is to use Do Not Disturb mode, which can be activated through the notification curtain or in the sound settings. Unlike normal silent mode, Do Not Disturb allows you to flexibly adjust exceptions. You can set your smartphone to turn off the vibration completely, including the keyboard, but miss calls from selected contacts.

MIUI has a feature called Sound Profiles that allows you to switch between use cases. Create your profile, like Read or Night, where the interface and keyboard vibrator slider will be set to zero. Switching between profiles takes a couple of seconds and doesn't require you to dive deep into the settings menu every time.

You can also set up the Do Not Disturb mode schedule to automatically turn on this mode at night, which will not only remove the vibration of the keyboard, but also prevent the screen from waking up from notifications. AMOLED-screen.

Game Turbo and Game Profiles

Xiaomi owners often use the Security app and Game Turbo feature to optimize performance in games.This tool has its own audio and vibration settings that override system settings when running apps from the list of games. If you notice that the keyboard vibrates in games or instant messengers added to Game Turbo, check the settings of this mode.

Launch the Security app, go to Game Turbo and click on the settings icon (usually in the top corner). Find the "Sound and Vibration" or "Enhancements" section. Here you can separately adjust the intensity of tactile response for gaming applications. Often, by default, there is an enhanced vibration here for better immersion, which you need to reduce manually.

In addition, Game Turbo has a feature to block notifications and disable navigation buttons, which can also affect the behavior of the keyboard. Make sure that the game profile does not tick “Enhance tactile response.” If you use third-party game keyboards, their settings may ignore the system, so check the settings inside the keyboard application itself.

⚠️ Warning: Game Turbo settings only apply to apps added to the list of games. If your messenger is not added there, these settings will not affect it.

💡

Add frequently used instant messengers (Telegram, WhatsApp) to Game Turbo to be able to quickly turn off notifications and keyboard vibrations with one swipe while communicating.

Solving problems and resetting input settings

In rare cases, there may be a software failure when the vibration sliders are active but the keyboard continues to vibrate, or vice versa, the settings are not saved. In such a situation, the effective method is to clean the keyboard application cache. Go to Settings → Apps → All applications, find Gboard (or your keyboard) and select Memory. Press Clear cache. This will not delete your dictionaries and input history, but update the configuration files.

If clearing the cache didn't help, update the keyboard app through the Google Play Store.Developers regularly release patches that fix compatibility bugs with newer versions of Android and MIUI.Make sure you have the latest version of Gboard installed.Also check for system updates in the About Phone section.

In extreme cases, if the problem persists and causes severe discomfort, you can reset your keyboard to factory settings. In the Gboard settings menu, scroll down to "Settings Reset" or uninstall the app and install it again. Completely removing and re-installing Gboard is guaranteed to reset any hidden configuration flags that may have caused the failure.

💡

If standard methods don’t work, the problem may lie in a conflict of third-party design themes or modified system fonts that change the behavior of the interface.
