iQOO launched its first earbuds in India, the iQOO Buds, on August 20, 2026 at ₹1,899, with up to 50 hours of total battery and 10mm drivers.

A ₹200 bank card discount took the price to ₹1,699, and sales began on Amazon on August 24, launch reports said. They do not have active noise cancellation, only AI noise reduction for calls. Details are based on 91mobiles and Digit.

What buyers should know

AI call noise reduction helps the other person hear you. It does not block outside noise for you. Buyers who want ANC should look at the CMF Buds Neo, which costs ₹100 more.

The 42ms gaming mode is the iQOO Buds’ strongest point, and it suits people who play on a phone. Pre-launch rumours of ANC turned out to be wrong.

Earbuds near this price with noise cancellation include the CMF Buds Neo, launched at ₹1,999 with 35dB ANC and a 52-hour battery. iQOO launched the iQOO Z11 5G on the same day, at ₹34,999.

Why it matters for accessory sellers

For gamers, the low latency is an easy selling point. Be careful not to describe these as noise-cancelling, as customers may return them. Amazon is the launch channel, so check your supply before promising stock.

Correction (November 1, 2026): An earlier version said these earbuds have 42dB ANC. They do not have ANC.
