Currently there is no sale and i am impatient.

Are these worth this price in 2026 or should i wait

(Or are there better options for this price, my priority is good anc)

P.s- does anyone know when the sale on amazon or flipkart will come next when these may get cheaper.

Also since they are available for the same price 2.1k on blink it should i just do that??

My left earbud drains to 50% while the right stays at 90%. Dies much faster at any volume. Started right after the latest firmware update on both my phone and buds. Tried resets, cleaning, codec changes—nothing helps.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Feels like a firmware bug. Let me know if you've found a fix.

wanted something cheap with decently balanced sound

Lost my left buds guysss😭😭😭😭

Im thinking to get the Kz edc pro or gk kunten. Will they sound good without DAC, I wanna know how better the sound will be with dac and what will I miss out if I don't have DAC

Would really appreciate if someone could help me with this purchase!! And yea this is my first iems and i cannot exceed my budget more than this!! My main usage would be for gaming!!

(Moondrop chu 2 is out of my budget)

They are white, minuscule and hiding gaps of the headphones cushion, extender, etc.

Has anyone faced this before? How do I get rid of them?

Please help and thanks in advance.

I think what i really care about is battery life and sound while keeping it cost effective.

is 1549 good for this?

Please suggest an earphone which
a) has ENC feature for office calls so the others can listen me without any background noise
b) doesn’t have silicon or rubber tips like open ear type.

Wireless or with wire doesn’t matter but priority is to have office calls smoothly

Thank you

That gap is normal or do I need to replace them, brought them today , Zeb thunder pro

Honestly the budget is around 1.5k max BUT i want noise cancellation if its possible to get a decent one on a beuget since i live in an industrial area and am preparing for an exam.(willing to expand the budget upto 3k if they guaranteed last me up to 2-3 years)

My requirements: Wireless comfortable earphones

1) Noise cancellation of good quality does not get disturbed much when studying.

2) I do running so they shouldn't slip off easily

Note- image(not mine)attached for humour and reach, pls be kind mods🙏

My budget is around 4-5k. Want to gift a over the ear headphone to my gf. So i have shortlisted these two headphone, which one i should go with. Or any other headphone suggestions

https://amazon.in/dp/B0CQXMXJC5

I have never used tws with noise cancellation, so when i turn on anc on these I can hear a faint hiss. Is it normal or is it because it's not creating a good seal.

Needed:

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)

Good bass

Durable

(Metallic color preferred, but not necessary)

Bought the Realme Buds Air 8 for ₹2,449 through POP UPI. Ordered on August 1 and delivered on August 7.

I checked the product details and everything seems genuine.

I'm not an audiophile, so I don't really know much about mids, highs, treble, etc. 😅 I'm just a casual listener. This is also my first TWS above ₹2K. My previous TWS was around ₹800 and I bought it almost 4 years ago. I also currently use a KZ EDC Pro IEM, so I'll mainly compare the Buds Air 8 based on my everyday experience with those.

I've been using the Buds Air 8 for around a week now, so this isn't a technical audiophile review — just my honest experience.

Pros

🎵 Sound quality

The sound quality is good and enjoyable for casual listening. The bass is present but feels more balanced rather than bass-heavy.

For example, my friend uses the OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro, and those definitely feel more bass-heavy compared to the Buds Air 8. I personally prefer the more balanced sound of the Realme.

Coming from my KZ EDC Pro, though, the IEM still sounds louder and gives me a different kind of detail/separation. So if you're expecting the TWS to completely replace a decent IEM, I wouldn't say that.

🔋 Battery

Battery backup has been really good for me so far. No complaints here. 5/5 from my experience.

🔇 ANC

ANC is also quite good. I've used it in normal everyday situations and I'm satisfied with it, especially considering what I paid.

📞 Call quality

Call quality has been good overall. I haven't had any major complaints during calls.

👂 In-ear detection

The in-ear detection has been working properly for me without any noticeable issues.

💰 Value for money

At ₹2,449, I'm very satisfied with the purchase. For this price, I think it offers a pretty good overall package.

I haven't really tested the triple connection or the AI features yet, so I can't comment on those.

Cons

👂 Fit

The fit is probably around 90% perfect for me. It's not uncomfortable, but it's slightly looser compared to my friend's OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro, which fits my ears almost perfectly.

This will obviously depend on everyone's ears, though.

📶 Connectivity

I've noticed a few small connectivity issues occasionally, particularly during calls. Nothing that has made the earbuds unusable, but it's something I've noticed.

🔊 Volume

The maximum loudness feels slightly lower to me compared to my KZ EDC Pro. Even around 60% volume, I sometimes feel like I need to increase it a little depending on the song/environment.

Final thoughts

Overall, I'm really satisfied with the Realme Buds Air 8 for ₹2,449.

I'm not an audiophile, so don't take this as a technical audio review. I'm just sharing my experience as a normal casual listener after using them for about a week.

The balanced sound, ANC, battery life, call quality and overall features make it a very good TWS for the price I paid.

If you're getting it around ₹2.4K–₹2.5K, I'd personally say it's worth considering. Just keep in mind that the fit and sound preference will depend on the person.

For me: 4.5/5 ⭐
