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

  • Near-neutral default tuning scored highly in the lab
  • ANC cut most outside noise in testing
  • Calls stay clear in wind and street noise
  • Light, comfortable buds
  • Deep app: EQ, personalisation, BassWave
  • Clear vocals and good bass; better than Buds 3
  • Smart ANC works well

Cons

  • Only about 5.5 h measured with ANC on
  • No wireless charging
  • LHDC and translation need a OnePlus phone
  • Adaptive ANC sometimes inconsistent
  • Mids only average
  • Full control options mainly on OnePlus/Oppo/realme phones
  • Transparency sounds unnatural and tiring
  • SoundGuysAug 2025

    A strong all-rounder for the money with lab-tested good sound, effective ANC and clear calls; battery is the weak point. Tested the global model.

  • FoneArenaJul 2025

    Value-for-money buds with improved sound and ANC, good calls and battery; adaptive mode is the only real wobble.

  • One of the best buds under ₹6,000, good enough to make pricier pairs feel unnecessary despite a few rough edges.
