True wireless earbuds continue to get more competitive in the market as smartphone makers are still removing wired earphones from the package. Not only this, some smartphone makers have also started removing the 3.5mm audio jack from their entry-level mid-budget phones to boost sales of in-house TWS earbuds. In India, customers will find plenty of options under Rs 5,000, but there are going to be some sacrifices. Earbuds that promise great audio quality can compromise on build quality or vice versa.
In that case, finding reliable TWS earbuds under Rs 5,000 is not going to be an easy task. That’s why we’re making a list to help you find the ‘right’ earbuds that offer decent sound quality along with good build and satisfying battery life.
OnePlus Buds Z2 (Rs 4,999)
OnePlus made a comeback in the TWS segment with the OnePlus Buds Z2, which looks similar to the old-gen model. The earbuds come with a long stem and a pill-shaped case, and customers can choose between two colors. One of the key features of the Buds Z2 is the addition of ANC, and customers can choose between different ANC modes with the app. iPhone users can use the device, but most of the features work better with an Android smartphone. The company promises 38 hours of battery life with the case.
Realme Buds Air 2 (Rs 3,249) on Flipkart
The Realme Buds Air 2 are still good earbuds for under Rs 5,000 recommendation. The company will be launching the next-generation Realme Buds Air 3 today, but we haven’t tested the model yet. Similar to the Buds Z2, we get active noise cancellation and larger 10mm audio drivers for a better listening experience. Key features include up to 25 hours of battery life with the charging case, dual-mic noise cancellation for calls, and IPX5 rating for water resistance. Sadly, the earbuds don’t support custom EQ, and the glossy finish attracts fingerprint smudges.
Oppo Enco W51 (Rs 3,999 on Croma)
Another pair of earbuds that come with active noise cancellation. iPhone users can also access the earbuds and tweak settings with the Hemelody app on the App Store. Other notable features include Oppo’s noise reduction technology, wireless charging, IP54 rating for water resistance, and a combined battery life of up to 24 hours. When it comes to Oppo, the touch controls aren’t always reliable, and non-Oppo phones will have limitations in terms of audio and controls.
Oppo Enco Air 2 (Rs 1,999)
If you are looking for earbuds under Rs 2,000, the Oppo Enco Air 2 is available with an introductory sale offer for a limited period. The earbuds work well with an iPhone and even a non-Oppo Android smartphone. The sound quality is mostly clear, with a good amount of bass. On the other hand, the build quality is sub-standard, so make sure the buds are in case if you’re not using them. The earbuds promise 24 hours of listening with the case on, and there’s no ANC.

Jabra Elite Active 65T (Rs 4,999 on Reliance Digital)
The Jabra Elite Active 65t is one of the oldest (on this list) but still reliable earbuds under Rs 5,000 in India. The earbuds come with an IP56 rating for dust and water resistance and promise up to 15 hours of battery life with the charging case. They also offer four MEMS microphones with frequencies ranging from 100 Hz to 10 kHz. Overall, the Jabra Elite Active 65t delivers good sound quality and the app has a friendly UI. However, the earbuds can cause problems for some users with small ears after prolonged use.
