Best Earphones under 1000 Rupees from Good Brands in India
Earphone is a must have device for music lovers. Earphone lets you enjoy music from distractions and on every device whether it is a smartphone, tablet, laptop, PC, mp3 player or anything that comes with 3.5mm aux port. Earphones come in different shape, quality and prices. A cheap and local branded earphone can ruin your listening experience and you will not be able to enjoy the music to its best. Also they do not last long because of their bad quality materials and thin wires that wear out very easily.
A good branded earphone can enhance your listening experience and gives you the best quality music quality with all effects including good bass and treble. You don’t really need to spend thousands of rupees for a good earphone as you can find high quality and branded earphones under 1000 Rupees. So here in this post I will provide you the list of branded best earphones under 1000 rupees that you can buy in India. I have also written a post on best headphones under 1000 rupees in India.
What to Look for in a Good Earphone?
Here are main things to look for in a good earphone:
Construction Quality – The earphone should be made from good quality materials and it should have strong and reasonably thick wires so that they would not get damaged easily.
Comfortable Ear-plugs – The earplugs and design of the earphone should be such that they can easily slide in your ears without causing pain and discomfort. The earphones should be comfortable to wear.
Sound Clarity & Bass – Any earphone would be a waste if it does not sound good. So look for an earphone that has good sound clarity and powerful bass for experiencing the best of music in your ears.
Additional Features – If possible look for additional features such as physical volume control button and mic. The mic proves very handy when using earphone with smartphone because you can directly answer your calls using the earphone’s dedicated in-built microphone.
