Vivo has launched a new pair of TWS earbuds alongside the Vivo X50 series in China today. This is a premium pair of earbuds featuring similar 14.2mm large drivers as the Vivo TWS earbuds launched last year, but upgrades the Bluetooth version to 5.2.

The Vivo TWS Neo earbuds feature three DeepX Stereo modes for a customized listening experience. You can choose between bass-heavy mode, clear voice mode, and high pitch mode to suit the audio you are playing.

The company claims that aptX audio code ensures that you get CD-rated audio quality on these earbuds. Plus, it features dual-channel transmission 2.0 which helps improve latency and battery life. According to official figures, the Vivo TWS Neo earbuds can play audio for up to 5.5 hours on the standard AAC code and this goes down to 4.2 hours on the aptX adaptive codec. But this figure is still better than the original Vivo TWS earbuds model.

Combined with the charging case, you get up to 27 hours of audio playback on the new earbuds. The charging case comes with a USB-C port for charging. There’s no wireless charging support for the case.

The earbuds also come with a low latency mode of 88ms for gaming and video calls. Other features of the Vivo TWS Neo include IP54 certification, Jovi assistant, Find My Earbuds feature, one-touch pairing and connection, and touch gesture support such as slide to adjust volume, single tap to play/pause music or call up Jovi assistant (customizable), and long press to reject a call. You also get smart call noise reduction, eliminating ambient noise such as wind interference, running, riding, with the help of its dual microphones.

The Vivo TWS Neo earbuds come in two colors: Interstellar Blue and Moon White. Notably, the earbuds are priced cheaper than last year’s model. It costs just ¥499 (~$70) and is already available for purchase in China.
