Ever wondered what it feels like to be truly engrossed in your favorite tunes? Today, we’re diving into the Inbase Free Buds Neo TWS to uncover the answer. Can these earbuds deliver a listening experience that not only meets but exceeds your expectations? Inbase sent us the review units of their Free Buds Neo TWS, and here’s what we think about it. Here, we unravel the features, sound quality, and overall performance of the newly launched Inbase Free Buds Neo TWS. By the end, you’ll have a clear picture of whether these earbuds are worth the investment or if you should keep searching for the perfect audio companion.
The Free Buds Neo TWS arrives in a compact and stylish case featuring a flip-style design that easily fits into your pocket. The case, adorned in sleek black with a red border on the opening, boasts a small square shape. Upon opening, a red interior design holds the pair of earbuds, held securely in place by magnetic placements. Plucking out and placing the buds back into the case is quite easy, and the case remains partially open once you put them back in the case.
The case’s front showcases Inbase branding, an LED indicator that indicates charging and stops once it is fully charged, and a USB-C port at the bottom. There are tiny LEDs on each earbud that glow when they are put inside the case. Available in various colors, including Black & Yellow, Blossom Pink, and Navy Blue, we have the Black variant provided by Inbase which looks premium and has an elegant charm.
The earbuds, with their secure in-ear design, offer a perfect fit without any issues during activities like listening to music, taking calls, or strolling. Even during vigorous activities like running, the earbuds stay firmly in place. The semi-in-ear style, featuring hard plastic in the inner part, may cause discomfort for some users during extended use. But, in my experience of using the Free Buds Neo for two to three hours at a stretch, they remained comfortable most probably because of they are light in weight. The earbuds are also IPX5 water-resistant, protecting against sweat and some water exposure.
Connecting the Inbase Free Buds Neo TWS is super easy. Remove the earbuds from the charging case, switch on the Bluetooth on your device, and pair them with ‘Free Buds Neo’. Once paired, the earbuds will automatically connect every time you take them out of the charging case.
Coming to the touch sensors, the TWS allows you to manage essential features effortlessly. Each earbud has different touch functions; a single tap on either bud plays or pauses the music and answers calls. Tapping thrice dials the last number you called. While the company mentions additional controls, my experience revealed only these two functions being responsive with the touch sensors. Here’s a complete list of touch functions that you can find in the TWS:
Power On
Long press for about 4 seconds
Power Off
Long press for about 5 seconds
Answer/end call
Touch once on the Left / Right earbuds
Incoming call rejection
Long press for 2 seconds on Left / Right earbuds
Play/pause
Touch once on the Left / Right earbuds
Last/next song
Long press the Left / Right earbuds
Increase volume
Touch twice on the right earbuds
Decrease volume
Touch twice on the left earbuds
Recall the last number
Touch thrice on Left/Right Earbuds
Audio Experience And Call Quality
The Free Buds Neo comes with 13mm audio drivers, but even when you put the volume on the highest, it might not feel very loud. People end up using the highest setting to hear better. However, it gives a clear sound without any distortion, and the bass is pretty good too. The earbuds have a feature to block out some outside noise. However, when it comes to making calls, the experience is not great and is just okay. The call quality on the Free Buds Neo is not as good as it could be.
Battery
According to Inbase, the Free Buds Neo provides approximately 5-6 hours of playback time and boasts an impressive standby time of up to 400 hours. It took me around an hour to fully charge the Free Buds Neo TWS. A good thing is that it comes equipped with a USB-C port for charging it conveniently. Over nearly a month of usage, I’ve found the need to charge the TWS only a few times, highlighting its commendable battery performance.
If don’t have a big budget or simply prefer not to spend much on earbuds, the Inbase Free Buds Neo is the perfect solution that will meet and exceed your expectations. Priced at Rs. 8,99, it stands out as one of the top earbud options in the market. Offering decent bass, large battery life, easy connectivity, and more, it caters to all your requirements without burdening your wallet. In my opinion, it’s a great choice that delivers value for its affordable price.

BMW introduced its premium electric scooter called CE 02 last year. The company is now bringing this top performance e-scooter to the Indian shores as well. BMW has confirmed the launch of CE 02 e-scooter this year itself in the country. We expect the latest electric two-wheeler from BMW to feature the same powertrain as the international variant including up to 95 kmph top speed, 15 hp power, and more. So, when is BMW CE 02 set to launch in India and what all are the expectations? Read on below:
BMW CE 02 E-Scooter India Launch Date, Delivery Timeline
The BMW CE 02 is launching in India this year. While BMW has hinted the arrival of its premium range electric scooter, it hasn’t specified the exact date or timeframe for the arrival. But rumors are rife that the BMW CE 02 electric scooter would probably go official by second half of 2024. It can’t be said if BMW will commence the deliveries as well soon after the launch or a few months later. Nevertheless, we are keeping a close eye on the developments and will bring the latest updates for you.
We haven’t got any clear insight related to the BMW CE 02 electric scooters pricing for the Indian market. But considering it be the most premium electric scooter, we can expect it to be the most expensive too. The price mark could hover above Rs. 2 lakh for the base model. But this is mere speculation and we would have to wait for the industry or official sources for the CE 02’s pricing information.
The BMW CE 02 electric scooter is likely to come in multiple variants as the international model.

Apple’s highly anticipated Vision Pro mixed reality headset launches on February 2, but there’s a surprising catch: no dedicated apps for YouTube and Spotify at launch. These two apps join Netflix in their absence, leaving some popular entertainment options off the table at first.
Even without dedicated apps, you still have options. You can:
Use the Safari browser: Access Youtube and Spotify through the built-in browser. While it may not be as seamless as dedicated apps, it’ll still get the job done.
Explore other supported streaming services: The Vision Pro supports popular services like Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and Apple TV+. These offer plenty of content to keep you entertained.
Wait for dedicated apps: Both Youtube and Spotify might release apps in the future, so stay tuned for updates!
It’s important to remember that the Vision Pro comes with a hefty price tag of $3,499. So, for some, the lack of these popular apps might be a deal-breaker, while others might be willing to wait for potential future app development.
Both YouTube and Spotify could eventually release Vision Pro apps, for a more immersive and feature-rich experience. Apple could also allow iPad app compatibility in the future, expanding the available options.
