Realme Buds Air 3 Features Overview
After connecting the Realme Buds Air 3 with your phone, let’s talk about the features you get in the app to control and customize the buds.
Noise Control Modes: The first feature you will see in the app is noise control. In this, you can change the noise cancellation mode in one tap with normal and transparency mode. You can also select between the three modes to change with touch controls.
Wind Noise Reduction: This feature reduces the wind noise when you riding on a bike or in an environment with high-speed winds. It will cut out a good amount of wind noise so that you can listen to the music or answer a call without hassle.
Sound Effects Tuning: You can change the sound effects between Bass Boost+, Balanced, and Bright as per your preference. We personally liked Bright for its broader range. You can also enable customized audio tuning by listening to some sounds and setting the tuning as you like.
Volume Enhancer: One more thing you can do for sound effects is you can enable the volume enhancer which will slightly increase the volume of the buds.
Game Mode: It also comes with a game mode that you can enable from the app. It reduces the latency of the buds to some extent so that you can do some normal gaming as well.
Dual-device Connection: You can connect the buds with two of your devices like a phone and a laptop simultaneously and you can switch between them easily via touch control.
Earbud Fit Test: You can also do an earbud fit test to check the fit of earbuds in your ears. It will play some sounds and you’ll have to confirm whether they’re audible correctly or not. This will help you check if they fit perfectly in your ears. If not, you can always change the buds.
In-ear Detection: It also has the in-ear detection feature that you can enable from the app. This feature automatically stops playing music on the earbuds when you remove any of the buds from your ear. And it will start the music again when you wear the earbuds again.
Auto-answer Calls: This feature will allow you to take calls automatically. After enabling this feature, whenever you receive a call on your phone, you can simply take either earbud out of the case and wear it. The call will be automatically accepted and you can answer the call directly.
Button Settings: At last, you get to check and customize the touch control settings. You can choose the action to be done by using touch controls on the earbuds like what actions should be done by the left earbud or right earbud.
