realme today launched the Buds Air7 in India, a new addition to its audio lineup initially announced earlier this month. The earbuds feature a crystal alloy design and are equipped with a 12.4mm Dynamic Bass driver, including a titanium-coated diaphragm, N52 magnet, and SHTW copper wire coil for strong bass and clear mids.
The Buds Air7 support Hi-Res Audio-certified LHDC 5.0 sound transmission, delivering a 96kHz sampling rate and 1000kbps transmission rate for immersive audio. Users can also enjoy Dynamic Audio and a 360° Spatial Audio Effect, powered by the HRTF algorithm, both adjustable through the realme Link app.
For noise management, the earbuds provide up to 52dB Smart Active Noise Cancellation, which adapts to surrounding noise levels automatically with intelligent noise recognition. They also feature a 6-mic system (three per bud) for clear call quality by reducing background noise.
With Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity, the Buds Air7 offer a total playback time of 52 hours. With ANC enabled, the earbuds last 7.5 hours alone and 30 hours with the case; without ANC, they provide 13 hours standalone and 52 hours with the case. A 10-minute fast charge delivers 10 hours of playback. realme claims the battery retains 80% of its original capacity even after 1,000 cycles.
Additional features include Dual-device Connection 2.0, Google Fast Pair, Swift Pair, 45ms super-low latency, smart touch controls, and realme Link app support for EQ customization and firmware updates. The earbuds are IP55-rated for dust and water resistance and have passed durability tests, including 5,000 charging cycles, 10,000 case openings, and 96 hours of extreme temperature and humidity exposure.
