A few years back, Apple announced AirPods which have created a lot of buzz in the tech community. AirPods have not only created a buzz, but have also created a new category of audio, now known as "true wireless headphones." As the name suggests, the actual cable buds are devoid of any kind of wire and these are just headphones that come in a box that doubles as a drum box for a drum box. Many smartphone makers like Samsung, Oppo, and Realme have already launched and released their true wireless earbuds in India. We can expect more companies to launch headphones in the coming months. Apple AirPods are out of reach for many because their price is quite high. However, there are many other True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earphones available today. If you are looking for a good pair of TWS, you have come to the right place. Check out our list of the best true wireless earbuds under Rs 10.000.

If you have an Android phone, the Galaxy Buds offer easy connectivity, a comfortable fit, and warm, bassy sound. If you don't, you may miss out on some cool extra features that the Samsung Galaxy portable app has to offer. Touch controls can be used to play/pause your music, skip tracks, answer and end calls, and launch the Samsung Bixby voice assistant on compatible devices. Priced at Rs 9,990, the Galaxy Buds are available as a black or white option on Flipkart. Buy on Flipkart Read our review
