You can switch between the modes by long-pressing the volume up-down buttons simultaneously. To be honest, the normal mode is already good for bass songs.
The bass gets overpowered in deep bass mode at high volume. Besides, treble is good. Highs and lows are balanced. The mid-range is fine too. Glide 500 is not so loud but the overall sound quality is very good. Microphone quality is satisfactory and the call quality is good.
Connectors: Unlike Mi Super bass, Infinity Glide 500 does not provide any aux cable and the port. Although 20 hrs battery backup is good, in case your battery is dead then you won’t have cable mode.
