I spent a good amount of time with the Realme Buds Air 7 Pro, and I must say, these earbuds surprised me for their price point of Rs 5,499. They bring a few premium touches and features that you usually don’t expect in this range, and after daily use, here’s what I experienced across design, sound, battery, and more.
4Controls and AI features
Using the Realme Link app made interacting with the earbuds really smooth — I could customize touch controls, adjust sound profiles, and tweak ANC levels with ease. The touch controls themselves felt intuitive, so managing music, calls, and volume didn’t require any learning curve.
The AI Live Translator and Face-to-Face Translator features were interesting to explore. With the Face-to-Face Translator, once I picked my desired language from the 34 available options — including Hindi, Korean, English and more — it worked well, allowing me to converse smoothly in real time. It picked up voices clearly and synced translations quickly, which would be useful during travel or when meeting people from different cultures.
The AI Live Translator, on the other hand, still feels like it needs some fine-tuning. For example, I read out the first paragraph of this review using the Live Translator feature, and it took nearly two minutes to process what I said. The only thing it got wrong was the name of the earbuds, probably because of how I pronounce things, but the rest of the translation was spot-on. When it eventually generated the content in Hindi, it was perfectly accurate, which was impressive.
These features are available through the Realme Link app and only show up after updating the app to the latest version, so make sure you’re on the newest build if you want to try them out. Alongside these, the low-latency mode for gaming and the Swift Pair feature with Windows laptops also worked seamlessly, rounding out a really smart set of features that go beyond just audio.
