Best Earbuds Under ₹1,500 in India

What decides it at this price

Around fifteen hundred almost every pair claims active noise cancellation, and the number beside it — 28 dB, 40 dB, 50 dB — is the one to be sceptical about. It is a peak figure measured at the frequency the circuit handles best, which is a low steady hum, and it says nothing about speech or traffic. A pair quoting 50 dB and a pair quoting 28 dB are usually doing much the same thing on a bus.

What does improve at this price is the microphone side. A second microphone on each bud lets the earbud separate your voice from the wind and the room, and that is heard by the person on the other end of the call rather than by you. If calls are why you are buying these, the microphone count is a more useful line on the sheet than the cancellation figure.

The battery claim needs reading twice. It is measured with cancellation off, at moderate volume, and the case figure is added on top — so "40 hours" is typically six or seven hours of real use per charge with everything on. Check the charging port too: micro-USB is still fitted at this price, and a case that will not charge from the cable you already own is a small annoyance you meet every few days.
