A smartphone can be powerful, but the experience doesn't stop at the phone.

Today, iQOO has expanded its ecosystem with the all-new iQOO Buds, launched alongside the iQOO Z11. And honestly, this is an interesting addition because iQOO isn't trying to make just another pair of wireless earbuds — it's bringing features aimed at music, calls, gaming and everyday convenience into an affordable TWS package.

So, what makes the iQOO Buds worth talking about?

🎵 Made for Everyday Listening

At the core are 10mm drivers, designed to deliver a fuller and more engaging audio experience.

Whether it's your morning playlist, YouTube videos, podcasts or that one song you keep playing on repeat, good TWS earbuds should simply disappear into the experience.

That's what makes the basics important — comfortable fit, reliable connection and sound that keeps you coming back.

🔋 Battery That Keeps Going

One of the biggest highlights is the up to 50-hour total battery life.

That's the kind of number that can take away one of the biggest annoyances of TWS earbuds: constantly checking the battery percentage.

Even better, a quick charge can get you back to listening without needing to wait around for a full recharge.

For commuters, gamers and people who spend hours with earbuds on, this could be one of the most practical features of the iQOO Buds.

🤖 AI for Better Calls

Here's where things get more interesting.

The iQOO Buds come with AI Call Noise Cancelling, designed to reduce unwanted background noise during calls and help make conversations clearer.

Because great earbuds aren't only about music.

A TWS pair becomes part of your daily communication — work calls, friends, gaming teammates, quick conversations and everything in between.

🎮 42ms Low-Latency Gaming

And yes, iQOO hasn't forgotten the gamers.

With 42ms gaming latency, the Buds are designed to keep audio response closer to what's happening on screen.

For games where footsteps, gunshots and quick reactions matter, reducing that audio delay can make the experience feel much more connected.

It's not just about hearing the game.

It's about hearing it at the right moment.

🔄 Bluetooth 6.1 + Dual-Device Connection

Another feature I really like is Bluetooth 6.1 with dual-device connectivity.

Imagine listening to music from your phone and then switching to your laptop for a meeting without constantly going through the pairing process.

Small convenience? Yes.

But these are exactly the features that make a TWS pair easier to live with every single day.

📸 A Smart Little Extra

The iQOO Buds also support double-tap remote camera control with compatible vivo/iQOO smartphones.

That means the earbuds aren't only an audio accessory — they can also become a tiny remote for capturing photos.

Perfect for those group shots where nobody wants to run back to the phone after setting the timer. 😄

💦 Ready for Everyday Use

The earbuds come with an IP54 rating, giving them protection against dust and splashes.

That's useful for everyday situations like workouts, commuting or getting caught in a little unexpected rain.

Obviously, they're not designed to be treated like waterproof sports equipment, but the added protection is reassuring.

💭 My Take

What I find interesting about the iQOO Buds is the balance.

You get:

🎵 10mm drivers

🔋 Up to 50 hours battery

🤖 AI Call Noise Cancelling

🎮 42ms gaming latency

🔄 Bluetooth 6.1 + Dual Device

📸 Remote camera control

💦 IP54 protection

Instead of focusing on just one headline feature, iQOO has tried to make the Buds useful across different parts of everyday life.

And at ₹1,899, the iQOO Buds definitely make the conversation around affordable TWS more interesting.

🎧 One Pair. Music, Calls, Gaming & More.

The iQOO Z11 might be the star of today's launch, but I think the iQOO Buds deserve their own spotlight.

Happy Questing
