Hi Mettle!
If your budget is close to Rs.4,500, we’d suggest you to check out the Realme Buds Wireless Pro neckband with ANC (Link – https://amzn.to/3uF4csI) priced at just Rs.3,999.You’ll get around 16 hours of battery life from this neckband without the ANC and close to 12 hours with ANC turned on. The sound signature is slightly bass oriented but the vocals and the higher end treble notes appear distinct and audible as well. One other choice available in this price range is the Sony WI-XB400 (Link – https://amzn.to/2NPQ52S) but this one lacks ANC feature when compared with the Realme Buds Wireless Pro neckband. The sound quality from this neckband is excellent, so is the battery life.
Could u suggest me a neckband…have good bass quality but pleasing sound…and battery life minimum 10 hours…and main thing…best for calling…budget 2k
Hi Ankit!
Based on your requirements, we suggest you go for either the OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z Bass Edition neckband priced at Rs.1,999 (Link – https://amzn.to/3bL9Faq) or the boAt Rockerz 235v2 priced around Rs.1,199 (Link – http://fkrt.it/oimKImuuuN) if your budget is too tight. Both these wireless neckband style earphones deliver bass heavy sound output along with decent voice call quality for a budget under Rs.2,000.
Best wireless earphones for Iphone boult or boat
Hi Gopal!
Both the Boult and boAt markets good quality earphones but without a specific model and a budget in mind, its hard to compare between these two.
Is oppo enco w31 better or infinity glide n120 better
Hi Siya!
We assume you are asking about the Enco M31 and not the Enco W31. The Enco W31 is a TWS earbud where as the Enco M31 is a neckband style wireless earphone.
Coming back to the question, the Enco M31 sounds significantly better than the Infinity Glide N120. The former is a hi-res audio certified device with excellent stage separation and tonal balance. The Enco M31 outperforms the Infinity Glide N120 is terms of battery life as well.
The passive noise cancellation works decent enough with both these in-ear style earphones. In terms of wearing comfort, one again, the Enco M31 comes on top.To summarize, the Enco M31 is well worth the extra money you are spending over the Glide N120.
should i get oneplus buds or bullets 2? . i have a oneplus phone and i need a really good sounding headset(i mostly listen to vocals mids,bass is not of high importance). i have a slight prefernce for tws style but neckband style is fine to me too. i have a budget under 5k. if not these two then maybe some other brand under 5k?
Hi Pulkit!
Whether you want a neckband type earphone or a TWS one is a totally personal choice. If you own a OnePlus device, then purchasing either of these two – the OnePlus Bullets or the OnePlus buds make perfect sense, as both of these devices sound exceptionally well for its asking price. One major difference between these two are that the One Plus Bullets support AptX codec whereas the OnePlus buds don’t. However, the OnePlus Buds will recieve frequent firmware updates if you use it exclusively with a OnePlus smartphone, which will ensure new features and improved sound quality over time.
If you ask us to pick between these two, the OnePlus Buds will be our choice, considering the features and future readiness.
So triple drivers and aptx hd support on bullets 2 wont make much of a difference in sound quality when compared with the buds? I’m gonna use these majorly with my macbook but for songs i use my phone only.
Hi Pulkit!
We suggested the OnePlus buds as it is a newer product and the posted comment mentioned that you have a slight bias towards TWS earbuds. AptX will definitely improve the sound quality and stage separation, but then again you mentioned in one comment that bass is of not much importance to you. All these made us think that the constantly updated, TWS style OnePlus Buds will be the best choice for you.
Hi, I am looking for wireless earphones around 2 or 2.5k. I like listening to various genres of music, but focus mainly on vocals and the sound of instruments. Need them to attend call from work so would like a good connectivity to a laptop as well. Would you have any suggestions?
Hi Violla!
Based on your requirements, we think the Oppo Enco M31 would be the best bet for you. It comes with hi-res audio certified drivers which delivers soothing sound quality across music genres with a tonally well balanced sound signature.
Thank you for the quick response. Between Oppo Enco M31 and One plus bullets wireless Z, which do you reckon is better? Also does the magnet in the earphones stop the music when the earphones are stuck together? If yes, then does it work for all phones?
Hi Violla!
We feel the Enco M31 will be a better choice if pure sound quality is your primary concern. It doesn’t in anyway mean that the One plus Wireless Z is a bad competitor but the former is certified for hi-res audio playback which indeed makes some difference in terms of the quality of final sound output.
Yes, the magnetic earbuds in the Oppo Enco M31 pauses and plays the music automatically on phones we have tested.
Hi.. I am looking for a lightweight neckband with adjustable lengths. Long battery life and good sound quality are must haves. I generally tend to wear it on me all day long. I used Boult curve for 1.5 yrs but I lost it on a train. Used to love the product so ordered similar one again but that one lasted me only 3 months. Now I don’t trust the brand. What are your suggestions ? (max budget 3k)
Hi Sreejith!
It’s always advisable to purchase Bluetooth earphones with AptX codec support for the best wireless audio quality. If you using a Snapdragon powered phone, AptX is the way to go. That said, based on your requirements, we find the OnePlus Bullets Wireless and the Oppo Enco M31 as the best fit for your usage. The OnePlus Bullets is an AptX enabled earphone whereas the Oppo Enco M31 is hi-res audio certified, both of which delivers best in class audio quality. The OnePlus Bullets is currently priced at Rs.2,990 and the Enco M31 retails for Rs.2,405. The OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z is yet another good sounding wireless earphone with a long lasting battery for a budget under Rs.1,999.
Hey, am looking for a neckband under 6k. Its for general purpose audio and am not very concerned about bass. My requirement is good battery back-up balanced sound. And no chinese brand. Could you please suggest a good one ?

This neckband styled wireless earphone is a hi-res audio certified device which ensures crystal clear audio output quality. This in-ear styled wireless earphone will last you for 14 hours on a single charge and has fast charge support as well.
Hi, i am pubg player and also i daily use my 3-4 hrs on calling. so, can you suggest me headfone for best calling and without lagging voice.Thank you
Hi Akib!
Bluetooth earphones/headphones will always exhibit some lag while gaming. However we’d suggest you go for the One Plus Wireless Bullets Z for a decent wireless gaming performance. The One Plus Bullets Wireless Z has an excellent inline mic for better handsfree audio call quality along with a long lasting battery life.
Hey how is the Oppo Enco Q1 neckband wireless earphones? Is it better than the OnePlus Bullets 2?
Hi Tanmay!
The One Plus Bullets 2 sound better than the Oppo Enco Q1, thanks to the AptX HD codec support. If you want a wireless earphone with excellent noise cancellation, the Enco Q1 fares better.
What would you recommend, i am looking for a wireless neckband(without any big collars) or tws earbuds, with ipx7/8, Bluetooth 5.0good sound quality, low charging time, decent battery back up, and suitable for aggressive movements like running, high intensity workout.
Hi Deepak,
If you are looking for a wireless earphone suitable for an active lifestyle scenario, we’d recommend you a wireless neckband rather than a truly wireless earbud. One reason for this is the comfort fit and the other one is the battery life. Based on your requirements we feel should check out the Boult Audio Probass and the Crossbeats Wave, both of which are IPX7 rated neckbands designed for outdoor usage.
Now if you are interested in a good comfort fit truly wireless earbud for workout usage, we’d recommed the Oppo Enco W31 for the same, which comes with an in-ear design and offers IP54 dust and water resistance.
Please let me know which one is best if purpose is only calling that too while speaking in low tone due to restrictions in talking loudly. Thanks
Hi Ankit,
For voice calls with exceptional quality, we’d recommend the Mivi collar wireless with aptX codec support for crystal clear voice clarity.
What is your Opinion on Bass Evolution V7, I have recently come across this product and would like to know your opinion on the same. My friends another model from Bass Evolution called play and it is pretty good sounding.
Hi Raunak,
Bass Evolution is just another Chinese earphone with an Indian branding. Honestly we haven’t reviewed this product to have a better say on the quality of its sound output. Meanwhile, be sure to go through the products in this list and we can pretty much assure you that you won’t be disappointed with the sound output.
Which bluetooth earbud earphones or truly wireless is best for calling in noisy environments too.. I mean which has been really tested jus nt on paper can you recommend. Thanks a lotm
When it comes to voice calling, we personally feel that the Samsung Level U with dual microphones fares the best among the bunch and is currently priced very competitively at just Rs.2,499.
Could you suggest the wireless blue tooth head set which is suitable for office purpose, especially for attending long hours of conference call.
Hi Rajesh,
Based on your requirements, we think the Mivi Collar wireless is the best choice for you. This wireless earphone comes with a 10-hour battery life, stable Bluetooth v5.0 connectivity and last but not the least the support for advanced apt X codec for crystal clear Bluetooth audio output.

The Sony WI-C310, the Oppo Enco M31 and the OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z are three neckband style earphone with good sound quality, wearing comfort and battery life on which you can safely bet your hard earned money.
@Team Bettershark thanks a lot for quick reply.
Hi,
Although I saw your reply to Saswat’s comment, will still go ahead and ask:
If you’re a OnePlus Mobile user, then what is a better option between RealMe earbuds and OnePlus Wireless Z?
Does being a OnePlus Mobile phone user helps in better compatibility and leveraging additional features if one takes OnePlus Bullet Z over RealMe earbuds?
Hi chirag,
If you’re a OnePlus user, The OnePlus Wireless Z will be a better choice for you. For starters, the Warp mode fast charge support works best with the supplied charger with OnePlus devices. Next, Using the integrated fanatic gaming mode on OnePlus devices, you can enjoy low latency audio streaming while gaming with this earphone. Apart from that, OnePlus devices comes with a function named auto play, which when turned on, automatically pauses the music playback when the earpieces are clipped. The audio resumes when you un-clip the earpieces. These are some of the OnePlus specific features which you can enjoy with the WIreless Z when used with a OnePlus device running oxygen OS.
Where does New OnePlus Wireless Z stand in this list?
Hello Dhiren!
OnePlus Wireless Z is one of the best wireless earphones you can buy under a price range of Rs.2,000. We have already reviewed it in our article on Best Wireless Earphones Under Rs.2,000.
Please check it out so that you will get a clear idea about the product and its alternatives.
If you have more doubts, please feel free to get back to us. We are happy to help you!
Hey , I’m looking to buy under 2000. Realme earbuds or OnePlus Wireless Z suggest please
Hi Saswat,
Between Realme earbuds and the OnePlus Wireless Z, we’d prefer the former. The OnePlus Wireless Z is a very capable wireless earphone with a long lasting battery life but when it comes to the all-round performance, the Realme earbuds seems to be a slightly better purchase option. With the Realme earbuds, you’ll get all the features on the Wireless Z earphones plus a larger speaker driver, pronounced bass levels and a ergonomic comfort fit design.
How come you missed out GALAXY BUDS +?
Hi Surya, Glad you went through the article. Yes, Galaxy Buds+ is one of the best truly wireless earbuds available in the Indian market at present.
The reason for not including the same in this article is because at the time of writing, the Galaxy buds+ was not yet launched here. Rest assured, we have already added the product in the next update of this article and it will be live within a couple of days on our website.
Here you have mentioned the crossbeats ELEKTRA but I think crossbeats PEBBLE might beat it today the only thing PEBBLE misses is soundpass mode which you haven’t considered in comparison.
Hello Ankit!
Thanks a lot for your valuable suggestion. Definitely, we will consider that in our next scheduled update of this article.
Thank you!
Hi ankit i am looking for a neckband wireless earphones with best noise cancellation and vibration mode in it can you suggest me with the same please, thanks
Hi Rohit!
The Samsung U Flex is a capable wireless neckband style earphone with vibration notification feature built in. The ergonomic design of the earpiece on this earphone helps block the ambient noise from the surroundings, delivering a calm, immersive music listening experience.
