Each part is measured the same way for every model (from specs and lab test measurements where they exist) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Noise cancelling well above what the price suggests
  • Volume dial on the case
  • Comfortable, secure fit
  • Lots of app features for the money
  • Mic handles wind better than most
  • Dual drivers, LDAC, spatial audio and dual pairing at a low price
  • Handy, remappable case dial

Cons

  • Bass boosted far too much by default
  • Only about 6 hours per charge with ANC
  • Voice sounds a bit muffled to callers
  • Dual pairing rather than full multipoint
  • Bass-heavy V-shaped default tuning, less clear than rivals
  • Only a 3-band EQ
  • ANC mainly handles low hum
  • SoundGuysSep 2024

    Recommended budget pick with strong ANC, a fun case dial and a rich app, as long as you like heavy bass; global unit tested.

  • GSMArenaAug 2024

    Hard to beat for features per rupee, with the dial a highlight; sound, ANC, transparency and calls trail pricier buds.

  • BeebomJul 2024

    Only for bass lovers or dial fans; for balanced sound the reviewer points to the Oppo Enco Air 3 Pro or Realme Buds Air 6 Pro.

  • FoneArenaJul 2024

    Good ANC earbuds for the price with punchy, clear sound and a secure fit; outdoor calls could be better.

  • Among the best in its segment for build, ANC and features; the dial itself adds little.

Reported by many owners

Common complaints

  • The two earbuds drain unevenly or one stops charging fully, cutting listening time
