Re: Bluetooth Headphones and Earpods

Any wireless headseats that pause music when removed from the Ear ? Just love and use this feature often on my airpods/Beats pro, however I am done with the battery issues that crop-up invariably within 2-3 years. I am also seeking 'aftermarket battery replacements' in Mumbai for the Airpods. If any known 'kalakaars' in Mumbai, do let me know.

I got myself JBL Live Pro 2 TWS for approx 6.4K. It works for the intended purposes and has decent ANC capabilities. Thanks for the inputs.

Replaced both the batteries myself - and - seems to be working. Let me wait and see how it holds up for a week and then will post a more detailed write up on this D-I-Y exercise of changing the batteries.

Great, All the best. Looking forward to the writeup on DIY exercise.

I managed to get the battery along with replacement from a shop in Tippasandra (near Indira Nagar), Bangalore. The back up is not as good as the original battery, lasts for 1 hour max with noise cancellation. Works for me as my usage is during my evening walk which lasts for 1 hour.

I also got some budget (3.5k) wireless buds from JBL , but it does not come close to Sony 1000 XM3 in terms of sound quality and noise cancellation.

Re: Bluetooth Headphones and Earpods

Recently I got the Soundcore R50I NC by Anker for 1.9K. Trust me, by far these are the best earbuds I have bought till date. Bass is really good and music & movies especially on apple music/tv sound incredible. Have charged it once and its 10 days now and battery is still up and running! The case doubles up as a phone stand as well. Neat!

It’s for Rupees 2199 right now on Amazon. So they can pair to an iPhone or Apple TV seamlessly, have I got that right?

I am using AirPods Pro currently with my use case being calls, uTube, audio and video from my iPhone and connecting to Apple TV for movies. I am no audiophile, just need comfortable wireless earbuds for convenience. Would the Soundcore R50I serve me well for the above purpose.

Thank you.

Cheers
