Introduction

The realme Buds Air 3 (RMA2105) earbuds promise a compelling combination of long battery life, active noise cancellation (ANC), and impressive sound quality at a competitive price point. After spending several weeks with these earbuds, using them for daily commutes, workouts, and casual listening, I’m ready to share my comprehensive review.

Key Features

The Buds Air 3 boasts several impressive features including up to 30 hours of total playtime (with the charging case), 10-minute fast charging for 100 minutes of playback, a 10mm dynamic bass boost driver, IPX5 water resistance, and TÜV Rheinland’s high-performance noise cancellation certification. The customized audio tuning feature is also a noteworthy addition, allowing for a personalized listening experience.

Performance & Sound Quality

The sound quality is surprisingly good for earbuds in this price range. The 10mm drivers deliver a powerful bass response, without overwhelming the mids and highs. The ANC is effective at blocking out low-frequency sounds like airplane engine noise or traffic hum, although it’s not quite as effective at eliminating higher-pitched sounds. The transparency mode works well, allowing you to hear your surroundings when needed. Battery life is also impressive; I consistently got around 7 hours of playback on a single charge, which is close to the advertised average. The fast charging feature is definitely a boon.

Comfort is another strong point. The earbuds fit securely in my ears, even during workouts, and I found them comfortable to wear for extended periods. The touch controls are responsive and easy to use, though I occasionally experienced accidental presses.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Long battery life, effective ANC, good sound quality, comfortable fit, fast charging, IPX5 water resistance, customizable audio tuning.
• Cons: ANC performance could be better for high-frequency sounds, occasional accidental touch control presses.

Final Verdict

The realme Buds Air 3 (RMA2105) are a solid pair of wireless earbuds that offer excellent value for money. The combination of long battery life, decent active noise cancellation, and good sound quality makes them a strong contender in their price bracket. While the ANC could be improved slightly and occasional touch control mishaps occur, these minor drawbacks are outweighed by the overall positive experience. If you’re looking for a reliable and feature-rich pair of earbuds without breaking the bank, the realme Buds Air 3 are a great choice.
