boAt Airdopes 280 ANC True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds - Aquamarine Green

The boAt Airdopes 280 ANC true wireless earbuds pair a 13 mm driver in each bud, tuned for boAt Signature Sound, with active noise cancellation that boAt rates at up to 32 dB, enough to push back the hum of a bus, a fan or a busy office. A long touch on the right earbud steps through Normal, Ambient and ANC modes, so you can let the room back in for a quick chat or an announcement. Four microphones with ENx environmental noise cancellation keep your voice clear on calls.

Take an earbud out and in-ear detection pauses the music; put it back and playback resumes. BEAST Mode lowers the audio delay to about 65 ms for games and video, and Bluetooth 5.3 with AAC and SBC keeps the link up to 10 metres away, while IWP switches the earbuds on and reconnects them as soon as the case opens. boAt rates the earbuds at up to 10 hours per charge and 60 hours in total with the 500 mAh case, or 9 and 54 hours with ANC on, and 10 minutes of ASAP Charge adds up to 180 minutes of music.

Available in Active Black and Aquamarine Green. The earbuds always power on in Normal Mode, so ANC needs a long touch each time. Volume is set from the phone, the earbuds cannot be used while they charge, and IPX5 covers sweat and water splashes, not swimming. A USB Type-C cable is in the box, but no power adapter.

Charge the earbuds and case fully before first use with the Type-C cable from the box; boAt recommends a 5V/2A USB adapter, which is not included. The earbuds take about 1 hour to charge and the case about 2 hours, and the earbuds cannot be used while charging. Open the lid with the earbuds inside and they power on and enter pairing mode by themselves, then pick "Airdopes 280 ANC" in your phone's Bluetooth list. To switch them on or off by hand, long touch both earbuds for 3 seconds (on) or 7 seconds (off). Single tap either earbud to play, pause or answer a call, double tap to reject or end a call, double tap left or right for the previous or next track, and long touch the left earbud for 3 seconds for Google Assistant or Siri. Long touch the right earbud for 3 seconds to move from Normal to Ambient to ANC Mode, tap the left earbud 3 times for BEAST Mode, and tap the right earbud 5 times to turn in-ear detection off or on. To reset, forget "Airdopes 280 ANC" on your phone, put both earbuds in the case with the lid open, press the reset button for 10 seconds until the earbuds flash white 5 times and the case flashes red 5 times, then close the lid, wait a few seconds, open it and pair again.

Airdopes 280 ANC earbuds (one pair) in the charging case, USB Type-C charging cable, user guide and extra silicone ear tips (boAt's smart guide shows XS, S and L sizes). No power adapter is included.
