1. OnePlus Buds Z
The OnePlus Buds Z are an excellent pair of truly wireless earbuds for those who are on a tight budget. With a price tag of Rs. 2999 the OnePlus Buds Z are one of the most versatile earbuds in this price segment. These Oneplus TWS earbuds surprisingly loaded with features and have nice decent clean balanced sound output.
On the design front, the Buds z look really stylish and premium with a decent plastic build (high-quality plastic). Along with stylish looks, the earbuds are also very lightweight and comfortable to wear. If you looking lightest earbuds under 3000 Rs then your search going to end here. The earbuds are also IP55 certified so you can take this out for jogging or to the gym without having to be afraid of the dust, sweat or light water splashes.
Like earbuds, the charging case is also good looking with a solid build quality. The charging case has a rounded compact pebble design with a magnetic open and close lid. Yes, the charging case is very compact so you can easily carry it in your jeans pocket.
The Oneplus Buds Z comes with touch-sensitive controls which can be somewhat customized with the help of an app on android. It works with two different apps on Android, one for OnePlus phones and a different one for the rest. For the OnePlus phone, you get a built-in app called OnePlus Buds. If you have a non-OnePlus Android phone, then you can install the HeyMelody app, which offers some basic settings with firmware update options. Yes, you can use these earbuds on your iPhone, but without any app support.
Coming to sound quality, the OnePlus Buds Z have good audio quality for the price. It has a warm, bassy sound but with some high-end sparkle thrown in for good measure. With 10mm dynamic drivers the earbuds offer decent clear and balanced sound output with the right amount of bass sound. The bass present is much more mellow and that’s why vocals and the treble notes stand out with good clarity. I don’t recommend these True wireless earbuds for heavy bass oriented users, but perfect pair for those who like to listen to all genres of music.
The battery backup is another prime point of the Oneplus Buds Z, it can last you for up to 4-5 hours of music playback at 70% volume. With a single full charge, the OnePlus Buds Z will last you for up to 5 hours of music playback at the moderate volume level. With the charging case in hand, you can expect to get the earbuds charged three times over completely (16.5 hours of total battery life). It also supports USB Type-C fast charging, with 10 min charging you can get 2h of music playback.

2. Soundcore Life Note
The Soundcore Life Note from Anker (World’s leading smartphone accessories brand) has been receiving very positive feedback from Indian customers because of the decent bass reach sound quality, APT-X Support and four-microphone setup.
On the design front, it comes with an all-plastic build with a stemmed design that mimics the Apple AirPods second gen. But the angled earpiece with comfortable silicone ear tips offers one of the best feating and comfortable experience.
The pebble-shaped charging box is also good looking but is a little big compared to others Truly wireless earbuds in the market. This is mainly due to the big 810 mAH battery (but at the same it provide you 40 hours of total playback time).
The Soundcore Life Note has a 6mm graphene driver which offers ultimate bass reach sound. If you are a bass-head, you will love these TWS. The vocal and the treble sound decent enough to let you enjoy almost all genres of soundtracks without any issues whatsoever. Yes, the sound signature is not very wide, but it’s bass-head earbuds, we can’t expect that!
One of the best things about these TWS earbuds is their four microphones set up, two of which are supposed to help with noise reduction when making calls in noisy environments with beamforming noise reduction and cVc 8.0 technology. They do a good job of reducing background noise during calls.
It is quite rare to find aptX codec support at this price point, but Soundcore Life Note have! Due to the presence of the aptX codec, you’ll hear high-quality audio. I know, TWS is not an ideal choice for gaming, but you can consider this one if you want because of apt-x low latency and a good microphone.
Another best thing about Soundcore Life Note is its battery backup. It lasts up to 5-6 hours on 70% volume and has a whopping 810 mAh case (36h total backup). It also features fast charging, and with 10 minutes of charging, it gives you up to 1-hour backup.

The Noise X5 Pro is our next choice on the list of best true wireless earbuds under 3000 Rs. The Noise recently launched these earbuds in the market with upgraded design and APT-X audio codec. On the design front, the Noise X5 Pro looks really decent. The build quality is also good and seems okay for the asking price as well.
It comes certified with IPX7 water resistance if that’s something you’re worried about. One good thing about this earbud is that its unique design of the earpiece and the supporting ear hooks ensure a tight and secure fit, which makes sport friendly earbuds. I am not saying is that it’s one of the best comfortable earbuds.
The charging case of this TWS earbud is bulky and considerably heavy compared to the other charging cases of other similar earbuds in this price range, of course, the reason is 2200 mah inbuilt battery. So, if you looking compact easy to carry TWS then this one is not for you.

Realme Buds Air Neo is an affordable true wireless headset meant to take the fight to Mi TWS and its recent entry into the TWS audio segment in India. The Realme Buds Neo looks almost similar to its older brother Buds Air 2, which again resembles the Apple AirPods.
The design is very simple and clean, there isn’t anything much to write about the design. The earbuds are very comfortable and stay fit inside the ear canals, but those with smaller ears would face some struggle it seems, which means not comfortable for everyone.
