The market today is flooded with wireless earbuds in different shapes and sizes - with stem, without stem, in earloop.
From what looked like a strange piece of plastic peeping out of the ear, true wireless earbuds (TWS) have come a long way.
And from many companies like Apple, Samsung, Google, Xiaomi, Bose, Sony, boat the list seems to be endless. With so many options to choose from, here's are some of the best picks that do well on almost all fronts - from comfort to sound to battery backup.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
Price: Rs 15,990
Launching wireless earbuds since 2016, Samsung has mastered the TWS category as the latest Buds Pro Buds have it all. From great design, fit and sound to utility features such as active noise cancellation (ANC), enhancing ambient noise and automatically switching between the two when speaking.
Google Pixel Buds A-Series Price
Price: Rs 9,999
Boasting a unique design, there is no stem popping out with the Pixel Buds A-Series. It is accompanied by 3 sizes of ear tips for a comfortable fit. Controls are identical on both the buds.
The storage and charging case complement the buds. The soft finish and compact size have a very premium hand feel and comfortably slide in the jeans pocket.
The buds pair quickly over Bluetooth and have an accompanying - Pixel Buds app- for Android smartphones with very basic functionality.
OnePlus Buds Pro
Price: Rs 9,990
One of the best-looking earbuds in the market, it has a stem and seems to be inspired by the AirPods, offering a comfortable fit.
However, the sleek pebble-shaped charging case looks refreshing. Complementing this design is the matte black soft finish of the case and dual-tone buds in black and chrome finish.
Sony WF-1000MX3
Price: Rs 19,990
Sony WF-1000XM3 isn't the smallest or shall I say a compact TWS. Both the wireless earbuds and the case looks big as compared to the AirPods Pro.
Available in silver and back colour options, they look stylish and sounds great too. Housing a 6mm dome driver, the sound while listening to music is impressive.
It supports stereo calling on both left and right earbuds with clear sound. The noise cancellation feature works well and is accompanied by the Quick Attention function to help listen to the surrounding sounds without removing the buds.
The battery life is pretty decent - around three hours with noise-cancelling and Ambient Sound enabled which can be stretched to four hours with some modes off. And the case juices the buds thrice.
