Unboxing: What’s in the Box?
The box looks absolutely simple and premium. It comes in three colors: Midnight Black, Polar White, and Grey like a blue grey. Inside: earbuds with charging case, Type-C charging cable, user manual, warranty card, and a BookMyShow voucher chance for a free ticket. The case is small, fits comfortably in the hand, and the earbuds attach magnetically. There’s no lid, just open and remove.
Design: Hook Style
These are open-ear earbuds, meaning they don’t go inside the ear, they stay outside. They have a hook design that wraps around the ear, so they don’t fall off even while running, gymming, or jumping. They’re lightweight and comfortable even with the case and offer a premium feel.
The case has a Type-C port for charging. They’re IPX4 rated, protected against sweat and light splashes, but not dust. Black is the classiest color, while white and gray are also cool. The Pokemon ball like look brings a smile.
Sound Quality:
16mm dynamic drivers some sources also mention 13mm, which deliver deep bass, clear vocals, and a balanced sound. Even with the volume turned up full, there’s no distortion. Being open-ear, the bass is a little less deep, but it’s great for normal music, podcasts, or calls. Always-on transparency mode feels like it keeps ambient sounds coming in, great for safety.
You can set a custom EQ from the app. There are presets, or adjust them to your liking. It’s fun to tune the sound to your style.
