The Noise true wireless stereo buds the Noise Shots X5 are now in the market. The cost of the product is 4999INR. The oval charging case of the buds gives it an appealing look. So in this blog, I will be sharing a complete review of the buds. The key specifications of the buds are outstanding as the device is powered by Bluetooth v5.0 and the battery is of 60mAH*2 which means each bud has 60mAH of battery which is pretty decent for an earbud. It takes about 1.5 hours to get it to charge completely. The charging case has 2200 mAH of battery which is a lot more than that of the Airpods 2 and the case takes about 3.5hours to 5 hours to get it to charge completely.

After the launch of the Apple Airpods the ear gear manufacturing industry has taken a boost. Every manufacturer is trying to provide the best Earpods. So the cable-free design of the Earpods is now in the trend. Noise, the brand that’s usually known for bringing expensive concepts to the masses at relatively affordable prices, has paid attention here and come up with something that earphone hunters have been wishing for years. Called the Shots X5, it’s a pair of completely wireless earbuds that rest in a box and cost Rs 4,999. 

Design

As stated, the device is completely wireless there just two tiny earbuds that sit within a small carrying case. Shots X5 Charge earbuds are ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in your ears and stay secure even with the most active lifestyles. Included soft silicone ear-tips in 3 sizes allow you to customize your earbuds for the best fit. The earbuds are pretty small and fit it into the ear canals very comfortably. The unique shape of the buds, especially with a small protrusion on the top to lock it into the earlobe, makes it sit sturdily in the position you leave it, it doesn’t fall off easily. Unlike other Earpods, you open the case, pop out the earbuds, put them in your ears, turn on the Bluetooth on your phone and you are good to go it works effortlessly for both iOS and Android devices. This is the most important part that every wireless earphone should nail and the Noise Shots X5 does this without a slight hint of annoyance. However, where the Shots X5 annoys is with the physical buttons on the earbuds. The buttons require a hard press for you to play/pause, answer/end calls or summon your virtual assistant, which often leads to dislodging it from the earlobe. The noise could have used capacitive touch buttons instead which could have taken tap-based gestures to do the same.

Comfort

The silicone ear tips are nice and comfortable too, although Noise packs in an extra bunch of ear tips in the case, the standard ones are too small for your ear. But that is an individual preference anyways. Both the earbuds have a physical button for powering them on or initiating the pairing mode. The buds also house LED status indicators that are subtle, unlike similarly priced earbuds that house eye-blinding lights. They glow white while charging or connecting and red when the power is low or disconnected. An LED indicator depicts the amount of power in reserve by constantly blinking in preset patterns four times if its power above 75 percent, three times if it’s above 50 percent and so on. The USB port that you see is meant to connect your smartphone’s charging cable and feed power to it in case your phone’s on the verge of dying in the middle of the road. In essence, the case is a mini power bank with you always. The box in itself has a smooth rubberized texture that is grippy to hold but attracts quite a lot of smudges.

Performance

With a balanced sound signature and clear distortion-free audio, the Shots X5 CHARGE earbuds are great for all-day listening without fatigue. The flat sound profile makes them enjoyable no matter what genre of music you prefer. The Quality of these Earbuds of good in its price segment. The tiny Earbuds performs very well indoors and outdoors but still, it has a problem "In outdoor, the background noise is slightly audible".
This the only con which is been figured buy us while researching on this device. However, what impressed us highly was the lower frequency output the Shots X5 can manage those drum beats by pumping out the ‘thump’ that you usually expect from most earphones. There’s a good amount of bass that makes it a pleasant experience to tune to your favorite tracks while on the move. The passive noise cancellation muffles ambient noise and works a bit well. The presence of a stereo mode for calls. While taking a call, you can listen to the caller from both the earbuds, which is how it should be in every completely wireless earphone. However, like all other wireless earbuds, there’s one gripe with Shots X5 the voice reception from the microphone. Since the mic sits in the right earbud, it isn't as efficient as the mics on wired earphones for catching your voice. As a result, taking a call on the X5 is mostly advisable in quieter surroundings.

Connectivity

Strong connectivity also matters a lot for wireless earbuds. Noise has catered to that with Bluetooth v5.0. With one of the latest wireless connectivity standards, there is no losing connection with the smartphone or lagging while streaming audio in the Shots X5. Next-gen wireless technology enables lag-free audio with a range of up to 10 meters. Enjoy longer battery life, plus faster pairing and more stable connections with all your devices.

Battery Life

Shots X5 CHARGE earbuds have up to 5 hours of battery life. The including Charging Case can recharge your earbud up to 12 times. Phone running low on charge? Simply plug it into the USB port on the Shots X5 CHARGE case and top up your phone battery. If there is a moderate use then the battery might even last for 10 days. 

Conclusion

The Shots X5 are compact as well as comfortable to wear for longer sessions, deliver an impressive audio performance, have reasonably good battery life and, most importantly, are very easy to live with on a daily basis. The only two issues with the earbuds are the physical buttons and the weak microphone reception. Barring these, it won’t be a stretch to term it as a true AirPods competitor. And when you consider its price of Rs 4,999 you should definitely buy one.
