Micromax is set to launch its first personal audio products, under a lineup called the Micromax Air Funk. Rahul Sharma, co-founder of Micromax, announced earlier today on Twitter that alongside the upcoming In 1b smartphone, the company will also be introducing two new true wireless earbuds under the aforementioned series. The designs of the earbuds have also been revealed in the teaser video that Sharma posted, showing five colour variants for each, and two different charging case styles.
However, no major details are yet known about the audio capabilities of the true wireless earbuds in question. Based on the tags used by Sharma on his Twitter post, it may be speculated that the Micromax Air Funk earbuds may come with some sort of noise cancellation. Active noise cancellation has become increasingly affordable, with products such as the Realme Buds Q2 offering the feature at as low as just Rs 2,499. The new Micromax Air Funk TWS earbuds may rival Realme by offering something similar.
Other tags also suggest that the Air Funk earbuds may come with some sort of gaming features, which would suggest the presence of low latency sound and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) as part of its feature set. Low latency modes have also been fairly common in the budget true wireless audio space, finding a sizeable audience thanks to the rise in mobile gaming across India.
In terms of design, one of the two Air Funk earbuds come with a flatter charging case akin to the Skullcandy Sesh TWS pair. The other one has a rounder shape, similar to the Realme Buds Air’s charging case design. Each of the two appear to come in five colour variants — with white, lilac, cyan, yellow and black for the one with the flatter charging case, and white, black, red, yellow and cyan for the one with the round charging case.
More details should be revealed very soon, as Micromax is expected to host a launch event for the In 2b smartphone alongside the two TWS earbuds on Friday, July 30 at 12PM. The earbuds will both sell exclusively on Flipkart, as per the teaser.
