Awesome headphones for the price

The Buds Air 2 display a design quite similar to the Pro version. This design is reminiscent of those of the Apple brand headphones. Indeed, the atria opt for an in-ear rod format, so with a silicone tip to fit better in your ears and, above all, to be more comfortable during a long listening session. At the end of its stems, we find the controls that will allow you to pause a song, go to the next track or switch between the different modes using tactile surfaces. And if you have any doubts about resistance, know that they are IPX5 certified and therefore will withstand rain, splash or sweat.

In addition, the headphones have a presence sensor on board that will allow reading to stop as soon as one or both are removed from the ears. But listening to music is still possible even with only one earphone in place. To support you, Realme makes sure to offer good battery life and promises 4 hours with active noise reduction, and 5 hours without. As for the box that houses the headphones, it is quite basic, but above all it has the advantage of being compact and light. The latter is supposed to offer 4 additional charges, for a total of 25 hours of listening. It will only take a 10-minute charge, according to Realme, to recover 2 hours of battery life.

Surprising noise reduction (in a good way)

These entry-level headphones have the particularity of incorporating active noise reduction, just like on the Pro models. Realme wanted to take care of its noise cancellation system and we have to admit that the latter does not have to be ashamed even in the face of more expensive devices. Two microphones act to reduce ambient noise, up to 25 dB according to the brand, or more than the Huawei FreeBuds 4i – up to 22 dB. Know right away that this reduction is still far from being as effective as that of the best headphones on the market – we think for example of the AirPods Pro or some Sony WF-1000XM4, but considering their price, the Buds Air 2 is doing very well.

In our test, noise reduction was found to be very effective. At home, we are immersed in a bubble, outside it isolates a little less, especially in noisy environments, but partially attenuates annoying noises. There is even a Transparency mode so you can stay tuned to the environment around you. This is very practical in certain situations, such as crossing a pedestrian crossing or listening to an announcement at a station.

Balanced sound, but with some concessions

With their in-ear format, the Buds Air 2 should offer good passive isolation and good audio quality, especially with the presence of the 10mm diameter speakers. However, we had to make some concessions on these headphones, Realme ignores support for aptX or LDAC. You will have to be content SBC and AAC codecs, which will however be sufficient if you listen to your songs on the most famous streaming platforms like Spotify or Apple Music. The manufacturer also communicates on a “super low” latency of 88 milliseconds. The Bluetooth connection is provided by version 5.2 of the wireless standard.
