Tech Desk: Tired of earbuds that seal you off from the world? Noise is set to revolutionize personal audio in India with its first open-ear earbuds, the Noise Master Buds Open, launching on October 27. Priced at an introductory ₹7,999, these innovative earbuds promise a unique blend of immersive sound and environmental awareness, challenging conventional TWS designs.

The Master Buds Open stand out with their clip-on C-bridge design, resting comfortably outside the ear. This ingenious approach allows users to enjoy their music or calls while remaining fully aware of their surroundings – perfect for commuters, gym-goers, or anyone who values safety and situational awareness. Each earbud weighs a mere 5.5 grams, ensuring comfort during extended wear.

Sound quality is a major highlight, featuring “Sound by Bose” tuning and a powerful 10.8mm custom dynamic driver. This combination delivers rich bass, clear mids, and crisp highs, customizable via Dynamic EQ presets in the Noise Audio app. The earbuds also boast advanced AI calling features, including a four-microphone ENC setup with DNN processing for crystal-clear calls, and Chat AI for hands-free voice queries.

Connectivity is robust with Bluetooth 5.4, dual pairing, and spatial audio support. An IPX4 rating ensures resistance to sweat and splashes, making them ideal for active lifestyles. With up to 28 hours of total playback, the Noise Master Buds Open are positioned as a formidable competitor in India’s rapidly growing premium audio segment, offering a fresh alternative to traditional in-ear options.
