Four other products are being taken here for comparison, there are OnePlus Bullets Wireless 2; Motorola Verve Buds 500; JBL Tune 120TWS Truly Wireless in-Ear Headset and Nokia True Wireless Earbuds.

Battery Life: Battery life is one of the most important features you look for in a wireless headset since you would want to keep listening to music or take calls and not face the battery going off. Here, Relame claims its Buds Air can last as much as 17 hours on a full charge, with the charging case. Without it, the charge is on for three hours. OnePlus Bullets Wireless 2 claims 14 hours, Motorola Verve Buds 500 claims 9 hours, JBL Tune 120TWS - 16 hours and Nokia True promises 12 hours, in comparison.
