I swear by OPPO’s audio products and the company has, time and again, proven its mettle by launching quality Bluetooth earphones that sound phenomenal. The Enco M31, for instance, has been my de facto recommendation for buyers looking for a neckband-style Bluetooth headset under Rs 2K. At the other end of the spectrum, the company’s Enco X TWS earphones ( review) continue to be the best-sounding, wire-free earbuds money can buy. That being the case, I was particularly excited to test the OPPO Enco buds earphones, which are the latest, wallet-friendly TWS earphones from the brand. I’ve been using the same for about a week and in this review, let’s see if they are worth your bucks. The OPPO Enco Buds are a spitting image of the company’s Enco W11 TWS earbuds launched a while ago. Be it the design of the case, or the earpieces themselves, the Enco Buds does little to differentiate itself from its predecessor. If anything, I would’ve at least liked to see the company launch the Enco Buds in new colours. But, I digress. On the bright side, the Enco Buds carry forward its predecessor’s classy design and look the part of a pricey TWS headset. The earphones, as well as the carrying case, have been constructed using plastic and the build quality on offer is downright fantastic – the earpieces don’t feel flimsy and the case offers a robust hinge and snaps shut with a satisfying click. I was a little miffed when I realised I couldn’t open the case with one hand, despite a rather large indent towards the front of the unit. But, on the bright side, the case ships with a Type-C port and even offers magnetic slots to anchor the earpieces securely. What’s more, the Enco Buds offer IP54 certification too, so the earphones should hold their own when you’re sweating it out in a gym. Speaking of which, the earpieces are featherlight and weigh in at just four grams each. So, you shouldn’t notice any wear fatigue set in, even after using the buds for hours on end.
