Looking to cut the cord without emptying your wallet? U&i might have just the ticket with two fresh pairs of TWS earbuds joining its new 'Classy Series'. The U&i TWS-5553 and U&i TWS-7227 aim to blend style and substance at seriously tempting price points of Rs. 799 and Rs. 849, respectively. Whether you need buds that can survive a gym session, keep calls clear in a racket, or offer lag-free gaming audio, U&i reckons this duo has you covered. Plus, they both come with a reassuring 1-year warranty.
The U&i TWS-5553 (at Rs. 799) seems like a solid all-rounder. It boasts IPX5 water resistance, meaning it should shrug off sweat and drizzle during workouts or commutes. U&i claims a hefty 40 hours of total backup time, environmental noise cancellation (ENC) for clearer chats, and a gamer-friendly 88 ms low latency mode. Add Type-C charging and smart touch controls, and you've got a decent package available in four colours.
Stepping up slightly, the U&i TWS-7227 (at Rs. 849) brings Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity to the party, along with quad-mic tech and Hi-Res audio support for potentially richer sound. It matches its sibling with 40 hours of playtime but boasts a massive 400 hours of standby time – handy if you're prone to forgetting chargers. It also features Type-C charging and smart touch controls in a sleek design.
Both pairs are hitting leading mobile accessory stores and online platforms across India now. That said, if you're still weighing up your options, check out our buying guide for headphones and earphones.
