vivo introduces iQOO Buds 1i with 50h battery life
The vivo brand iQOO launched a new pair of TWS earbuds over the weekend, called Buds 1i. This audio accessory is similar to the vivo Buds 3i sold in China, but features a stylish yellow and black color option.
The iQOO Buds 1i are available in both China and abroad, but there are two different variants. The model sold in Indonesia offers a 50-hour battery life, while consumers in the domestic market must settle for only 45 hours.
Interestingly, the vivo Buds 3i are also available (only in China) in these two battery configurations, which means the company has merely introduced a new color option, branded with the iQOO logo as a new product.
The iQOO Buds 1i support IP54 water and dust proofing, as well as Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity, which offers 88 ms low latency in Gaming mode. The buds feature a 10 mm audio driver made from a high polymer composite material, allowing for a “mega bass,” clear voices, and clear high pitch.
Software-wise, vivo generally offers AI noise reduction, and it extends to the iQOO Buds 1i as well. The international version supports Google Assistant and also provides Google Fast Pair for quick connection with any Android device.
The iQOO Buds 1i are sold on the vivo Indonesia website in one color – Star Light (that"s the Yellow and Black version). The price is IDR 349,000 (about $21/€18) for the 50h version, while the 45h variant in China costs CNY 95, which is just $13/€11.
