Realme Buds Air 5 Pro Review
The Realme Buds Air 5 Pro was among the first under-Rs-5,000 earbuds to combine coaxial dual drivers with LDAC and 50dB ANC. The coaxial alignment places bass and treble drivers on the same axis for a more natural, coherent soundstage than offset designs. Hi-Res Audio certification at 24-bit/96kHz makes it one of the few budget earbuds officially rated for high-resolution wireless playback.
Our Verdict
At Rs 3,499-4,499, the Air 5 Pro delivers certified Hi-Res audio with coaxial dual drivers and 50dB ANC. The 4.2-star rating from 3,000+ buyers confirms long-term reliability. The trade-off is a higher price than the newer Buds Air 7, 40-hour battery (12 hours less), price fluctuations on Amazon, and no wireless charging support.
Best For
Audiophiles who listen to high-resolution lossless music and want the most technically advanced audio codec support in a budget earbuds package.
Consider Alternatives If
Value-focused buyers - the newer Realme Buds Air 7 offers deeper ANC (52dB vs 50dB) and longer battery (52h vs 40h) for Rs 1,000 less.
