The Playgo Dualpods wireless earbuds were just released in India. The gadget is presently available for Rs 1,799 on e-commerce sites like Amazon, Flipkart, and PLAY’s own website. After using the device for a few weeks, we’re ready to share our thoughts on the PLAYGO DUALPODS, so read on for a thorough review.
Playgo Dualpods Review: Design
First and foremost, the Playgo Dualpods is nicely packaged. These TWS earbuds are available in a variety of colours, including Teal Green. It comes with a rectangular-shaped case with a matte finish that looks nice, and the plastic quality appears to be decent.
The earphones are housed in the charging case, which is made of transparent plastic and rubber. A USB Type C charging connector is located at the bottom of the charging case. The in-ear shape of the earbuds allows them to fit securely in the ears. These are lightweight, weighing only 3.7 grams each piece, and maybe worn for extended periods of time.
The buds come with silicone ear tips that can be adjusted, and three extra pairs are included for replacement. With the new TWS, users may enjoy a full wifi experience and move freely while working from home/office, at the gym, or just taking a walk.
Playgo Dualpods Review: Performance
The Playgo Dualpods is equipped with Dual 6mm Enhanced Bass Extra Loud (EBEL) drivers for maximum performance. Furthermore, the earbuds have high-quality microphones for clear calls and conversation. The dual drivers onboard speakers provide sonic effects and thump to the entire listening experience. While on the phone or listening to music, the tight-fitting provides great noise suppression.
Overall, the listening experience is enjoyable. Furthermore, the sound is properly balanced, with neither too much nor too little volume. The earbuds also support the AAC wireless audio codec, which is available on some Android phones.
In terms of connectivity, the Playgo Dualpods supports Bluetooth 5.2 for rapid connections with 100ms latency. This device also has a connection range of up to 10 metres. In terms of connectivity, we experienced difficulty connecting the gadget to our smartphones. It took a very long time to connect, which is really inconvenient for people who are using an older version of Android handsets.
However, we had no issue connecting the Playgo Dualpods to smartphones running the most recent operating system. The same is true with laptops and tablets. Furthermore, the TWS earbuds cannot be paired with two devices at the same time, so you must first disconnect the headphones from your smartphone before pairing them to your tablet or laptop. As a result, those who use more than one device might consider different possibilities.
TWS earbuds are both smart and touch-sensitive. We were quite dissatisfied with the touch controls and had difficulty utilising them because the touch panel would not respond even after several taps.
We also had no issue receiving calls because the audio at both ends was extremely clear.
These include compatibility for voice assistants like Google Assistant, Siri, and Alexa, which may let them take or reject calls, change/play/pause a soundtrack, and even manage the volume.
The device can be used for up to 30 hours with the charging case and for 5 hours on a single charge, according to the manufacturer. It also has a USB Type-C charging connection for faster charging. The Playgo Dualpods lasted more than 4 hours at full volume for us, but we are especially pleased that the device can be charged through a USB Type-C port. Using a 10W charger, they take roughly 1.5 hours to charge from zero to 100 percent.
Verdict
We have been using the Playgo Dualpods earbuds for many weeks and have been quite satisfied with the design and comfort of the TWS. The sound quality is also excellent; the only issue we had was with the touch controls and connection. However, we were particularly impressed by the fact that they charge through a USB Type-C port. The pricier TWS provides greater capabilities, but the Playgo Dualpods are very decent for the price.
