Unboxing and features

Sure, distortion becomes obvious in many songs, however the sheer amount of volume these buds have in this mode is outrageous. Believe of it as an extremely power you should not use every day, but have in case you need it.

The buds themselves are in-ear and do a much better task of separating outdoors sound than, say, an open-ear style like the Huawei Freebuds 4 or the Apple AirPods 2nd generation.

Now we pertain to the Realme Buds Air 2s very power – Volume enhancer. When you turn it on, youre met with a warning of possible hearing damage and need to you accept it, the Realme Buds Air 2 end up being the loudest earbuds youve ever heard.

You can choose what sound profile to use with choices being Bass Boost+, which turns music into a mushy mess; Bright, which tones down the lows and turns up the highs and mids, resulting in no rumble and a squeaky sound; and Dynamic, which you ought to use by default.

Realme Link enables you to personalize the tap controls for each bud. By default you can double tap for play/pause, triple tap for next track and long press both buds to alter between ANC and Transparency mode. However the app lets you set customized controls per bud, so you can have a double press on the left bud to go back to the previous track and double press the best one for next track.

As TWS earbuds go, these are among the more compact and inconspicuous. Theyre likewise amongst the couple of that healthy ladies ears just as well as maless.

Each bud has clever detection sensing units, which pause whatever is on when you take the buds out of your ears. The sound will restart when the buds are put back in.

The Buds Air 2 assistance Googles Fast Pair with Android phones. The Realme Link app would show a widget with the battery of each bud and the case when you link them.

The Realme Buds Air 2 come with a single USB-A to USB-C cable television, 2 extra sets of rubber suggestions (S/M/L) and the case.

The Realme Link app is the location to manage the Realme Buds Air 2. But have a care to pick a place that offers the Buds Air 2 when setting up the app, otherwise they will not appear in the list of supported gadgets.

Speaking of the case, it has a reset button and a USB-C port for charging. Theres no wireless charging, but you should not expect it at this price.

The Realme Buds Air 2 featured Bluetooth 5.2, which is a little better than Realmes other TWS earbuds. Theres also Game Mode, which allows low-latency 88ms transmission during video gaming sessions. Youll need to allow it in the app.

The case is all glossy and black. Its very fingerprint-prone and gets oily and oily every few days. Another slight grievance we have is how difficult it is to get the buds out of the case – the magnets holding the buds in the event are strong and theres hardly any place to grab them and pull them out.

Workout fans will value the buds IPX5 ranking, which means theyre sweat-proof and will deal with a little rain no problem. Just keep in mind to keep the case dry.

This is where you can toggle between Normal mode, the obvious Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode, which enhances the noise of your surroundings so you can communicate with them or people without taking the buds off.

Sound quality, active sound cancellation and battery life

The Realme Buds Air 2 have a 10mm Bass Boost sound driver that allows quality sound. I evaluated the Buds at their Dynamic mode, which yielded the finest balance.

Mids and highs are most dominant and can end up being a bit self-important in specific songs at max volume. Bass is inconspicuous and well-controlled. You shouldnt make it possible for Bass Boost+ mode under no circumstances as it ruins the balance and leads to a mushy, rumbling sound.

The Buds Air 2 count on their R2 customized chip to peaceful down low frequency noises like an engine rumble on a airplane, train or bus , or a fan. The result isnt really excellent. Changing in between ANC and normal mode leads to a palpable reduction in sound at first, but its no place near as reliable as some other ANC buds weve evaluated.

Active noise cancellation is rated at up to 25dB – this is the only place where the Realme Buds Pro beat the Air 2s, as theyre rated at up to 35dB.

The Realme Buds Air 2 are the best in-ears this reviewers ever checked when it comes to prolonged durations of wear. Theyre really light and they sit safely without leading to discomfort from extended use.

Paired with the exceptional microphone quality, the ease and comfort of use make the Realme Buds Air 2 fantastic for telephone call.

Lets leave it at this – ANC works at reducing noise, simply not to a point where its excellent.

You can expect the fan-pleasing bass-and-mid-heavy noise thats typical for this type of item and thats no bad thing. Theres a lot of volume and plenty of character to the noise coming from the Buds Air 2.

The case charges the buds about twice from absolutely nothing to complete and itself charges up in about 1 and a half hours.

Battery life is excellent. With ANC off, I got bit over 5 hours of constant music playback at 100% volume. Realme claims up to 5 hours with ANC off and AAC quality on at 50% volume, which I surpassed at 100% volume – outstanding.

I do not hear it with something like the AirPods Pro or Samsungs Galaxy Buds Pro, nor the Sony WF-1000XM4s. Those all cost four times as much as the Realme Buds Air 2, so its not a fair comparison.

Should you purchase the Realme Buds Air 2?

Theyre also comparable to much more expensive sets of TWS earbuds around. For the general user, the one that takes pleasure in good sound quality and a list of helpful functions – the Realme Buds Air 2 do not disappoint in any regard.
