A leak had appeared in September last year that Chinese tech giant Realme was planning to launch a wireless earbuds in India  that would come with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). Then came the Realme Buds Air Pro equipped with active noise cancellation.  In recent times, we have seen that Realme will soon launch two new earbuds – Realme Buds Q2 and the Buds Air 2. Apparently there is a third model in the works and it will have ANC, if the latest leak is anything to go by.

According to the details contained in a leak by popular tipster Ishan Argawal, the Chinese company is bringing a model with active noise cancellation. The teaser poster shared shows that Realme is teaming up with popular American band The Chainsmokers (EDM duo).The poster is promoted with the caption “Noise off, Realme on”. It is this aption that is fuelling speculations that the earbuds will come with noise cancelling feature and that may not be wrong.

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) uses a noise-cancelling system to reduce unwanted background noise. The system is based on microphones that “listen” to the sounds outside and inside of the earphone, an ANC chipset inverting the soundwaves and a speaker inside the earphone cancelling the outside sound by the neutralising soundwaves. Bringing genuine ANC to earbuds is a challenge due to the in-ear design. .

On a side note, the partnership Realme has struck with The Chainsmokers  is suggestive of a top-end product which may be a successor to the Buds Air Pro. There is no official word on that yet so we can’t reach a conclusion just yet. We await for more details to emerge.
