Looking for wireless earbuds <10K

[LordSpymaster]

So I'm looking for wireless earbuds under 10K. Need them to work with android and ios both. Calling is primarily the reason, some music is the rest.

Suggestions?

Dbrand has excellent customer support so I'm not surprised.
They even replaced my iPad skin for free when it had come off after few months.

So finally after the trouble free delivery experience by delhivery involving multiple reroutes and making me to go almost 2kms to their point where they can deliver since my area comes under out of delivery areas and all ... got my buds plus. I have used it for a day so I am posting intial impressions here.


Battery life is good not the promised 11 hours .1 hour of usage takes almost 15 percent. I am talking about the buds battery not the case .

Sound quality is good . The clarity and the bass is mostly perfect and accurate enough. One thing I found is that the it does not gets loud enough. I have sennheiser cx275s here which gets pretty much louder than the buds plus. The loudness is moderate.

Case is as @kkapoorr said is glossy and therefore prone to scratches. Better to have a skin

Galaxy wearable is only just enough. major drawback is that we cannot customize equaliser settings only presets options are availble.
Ambient noise sounds little artificial. Also the buds is pretty noise cancelling itself with right earbuds.
I will post more after a couple of weeks of usage .

Hey,
Your 10-hour battery life is with the case or only the buds?

My issue is that the buds do give around 8/9 hours but according to the app the case goes down real fast....

So I solved this. First drained the battery of the case to 0, and the buds to around 5%. Then, fully charged to 100% and let it be for sometime. Checked by using the buds for about 2 hours, lost 17%. Case charged them to 100% and was itself at 83%. Now, overnight the case remained at 83%, and buds at 100%. Might have been a battery calibration issue with the case which seems to have been sorted for now.

So I mailed them and asked to add a skin for the buds case. They obliged and I paid. So I saved on shipping, which was nice.

Should reach my place in the next 4 weeks max.

So this went well:

The skin for the Galaxy Buds case was probably the hardest to apply for me till date. Lots of individual parts and many chances to go wrong...
Went reasonable though after many tries...

Cheap 2k TWS after every few months or decent TWS for long term?

I bought Fiil T1 Lite recently. Around $30 or so. Honestly they are probably the best sounding TWS earbuds I have ever used. I spent nearly 8x that on the Sony WF1000XM3 and can't really tell any difference in the sound quality

I use Fiil T1 Pro, best sounding TWS I have ever used and don't bother about ANC.
Earfun Free Pro is the rebranded one for western market with more bass tuning and no app support, great reviews all around.
