Realme Buds Wireless 5 Lite with 35-Hour Battery Launched in India

Realme has launched a new neckband style wireless earphones, the Buds Wireless 5 Lite. It's aimed at the budget users, with its unique selling point being durability and battery life at an affordable price.

The Realme Buds Wireless 5 Lite feature 12.4 mm dynamic bass drivers with PET titanium coating, and N38 magnets. The firm claims this helps the earbuds deliver rich bass and clear sound.

There's support for both SBC and AAC codecs. One of the other main highlights of the Buds 5 Lite is its 35-hour battery life with fast charging.

Realme claims the battery will retain it performance even after 600 charge cycles. Besides, it features Bluetooth 5.4 with dual-device connectivity, and ENC (Environmental Noise Cancellation). The firm says it uses a smart DNN algorithm and a dedicated mic for clearer calls.

There's also a 45ms low latency mode for gamers. The Buds 5 Lite are IP55 rated for protection against dust and water, and the design is claimed to be rugged and could easily survive up to 5,000 bends and 25,000 folds.

The Realme Buds 5 Lite come in three colours – Cyber Orange, Haze Blue, and Void Black and is priced at Rs 1,199. Realme is offering a launch discount of Rs 150 discount. The earbuds will go on sale starting June 27, 2025 at 12:00 PM on Amazon India, Flipkart, and Realme's official store.

This makes the Buds 5 Lite much cheaper than the recently released OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z3, which cost Rs 1,699 and also come in an orange colourway. However, unlike the Bullets Wireless Z3, Realme Buds Wireless 5 Lite doesn't support Google's Fast Pair. It also doesn't support the Realme Link app, either.
