boAt Nirvana Ion ANC, Active Noise Cancelling (~ 32dB), 120 Hour Battery, App Support, Crystal Bionic Sound, 4Mics ENx, v5.3 Bluetooth Earphones, TWS Earbuds Wireless Earbuds with Microphone

First time using any earbud. It was recommended by one of my friend. Ordered it. Was using it for little more than1 hr everyday for last 14 days. Pros: 1. Sounds great. Boat's signature sound which is bass boosted feels great. 2. Boat Hearables app also customizes best suitable audio type only for you with its amazing hearing test. Apart from that you get to adjust your audio on your own. Sound gets 8.5/10 from me. 3. Other side of the phone says crystal clear sound they can hear from me. Works great even in very low tone. Clarity worked damn well even in fish market, traffic, puja pandals with loud mikes. Will rate 10/10 on calling clarity. 4. Great touch features. Next song, previous song, pause, anc mode> anc off> ambient mode, signature sound> balanced sound, call receive and cut etc are smoothy operative from touch features. For volume only you need to open phone. Touch gets 9/10 from me. 5. Charged 1st time and dat was the last time since these 14days. Battery status 100% in both buds and 91% in case. Terrific battery life. Gets 10/10. 6. In ear detection is great. Music/video pause when ear bud is taken out of ear. 7. Fits great in my ear. Does not get loose while running. 3types of rubber is given with the box for your ear type. 8. Ambient Feature is absolutely good thing while you are walking in road or traffic, you need to hear the sourround too. However, it should work with lesser dB sound too. As it seems it working in short distance when the vehile has approached considerably. If it is a truck/bus the noise/horn is louder from long back so you get time to be aware. But if it is a car or bike unless it horns you wont be able to be aware well in advanced. This thing I dnt know may not be expected in this low budget. Even with out the earbuds been connected to bluetooth it reduces the sourrounding sound considerably without ambident mode on. Cons: Just one con I must admit is the Boat Hearable app. It does not work without GPS. However there is absolutely no necessity of this app to be installed if you are pretty happy with the boats signature sound/ balanced sound. Only if you want to customize your auido you need it. Also, you need it if you want to turn on/off the feature for mutiple device connections. Did not use that feature yet. Conclusion: I strongly recommend it. Sounds great for me.

Good

The Boat Nirvana Ion ANC is an impressive pair of earbuds that checks nearly all the boxes for anyone looking for a high-quality audio experience. After using them extensively, I can confidently say that they are one of the best value-for-money options currently available in the market. Here's a detailed breakdown of my experience: Sound Quality: 5/5 The sound quality of the Boat Nirvana Ion ANC is phenomenal. The bass is deep and punchy, the mids are clear and well-balanced, and the highs are crisp without being overly sharp. Whether you're listening to music, watching movies, or taking calls, the audio experience is immersive and enjoyable. The addition of Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) elevates this experience, effectively blocking out external noise so you can focus on your content. Active Noise Cancellation (ANC): 5/5 The ANC feature is surprisingly effective for earbuds in this price range. It manages to block out a significant amount of ambient noise, whether you're in a bustling cafe, on a noisy commute, or even at home with the TV on in the background. The transparency mode is also a great touch, allowing you to stay aware of your surroundings when needed without taking the earbuds out. Battery Life: 5/5 One of the standout features of these earbuds is the battery life. Boat claims an impressive playback time, and the product delivers. Even with ANC on, the earbuds last several hours on a single charge. The charging case adds multiple additional charges, ensuring you don’t run out of juice even on long trips. Build and Design: 4.5/5 The build quality of the Nirvana Ion ANC feels solid and premium. The earbuds and case have a sleek and modern design that is both stylish and durable. The matte finish resists fingerprints, and the compact size of the case makes it easy to carry around. Connectivity: 5/5 With Bluetooth 5.2, the connection is rock solid. Pairing is quick and effortless, and the connection remains stable even when moving around. The low latency mode is a boon for gamers, providing a lag-free experience during gameplay. Ease of Use: 5/5 Touch controls are intuitive and responsive, allowing you to control playback, adjust volume, and switch between ANC and transparency modes with ease. The earbuds also support voice assistants, making hands-free operation seamless. Comfort: 3.5/5 Here’s the only area where the Boat Nirvana Ion ANC could improve. While the earbuds fit snugly and provide decent noise isolation, I found the earplugs slightly uncomfortable for extended usage. After a couple of hours, they started to feel a bit intrusive. Boat could consider offering softer or more ergonomic ear tips in future iterations to address this issue. Value for Money: 5/5 Considering the features packed into these earbuds—top-notch ANC, excellent sound quality, long battery life, and stylish design—they offer tremendous value. They easily compete with much more expensive options in the market and often come out on top.

ANC not good as mentioned, not meet expectations. Music quality while listening much better than another's local brands. 3 starts for the play Music only. While used for calling on outdoor is very disappointing....

Best quality and sound and great battery backup
