Built Quality (4.5/5)

Realme has done an good job in terms of built quality. The earbuds as well as the case feels top built.

There’s no flimsyness or panels pressing anywhere to be witnessed, on the case or the buds. The detail on the box is nice and overall felt premium.

The lid or the case makes a satisfying click sound, and one-handed operation is quite possible, too.

As far as the magnetic connection is concerned, the earbuds do not fall off even if done upside down.

So, in terms of build I would easily give these 4.5/5.

Realme T310 Review – Looks (4/5)

Looks are totally subjective, and your opinion may or may not match. I am a fan of matte earbuds, and this one ticks my requirements.

Black is a good color choice. Realme T310 comes in 3 color options. On the front, you have the Realme branding, which is quite neat and non-intrusive.

However, the buds have a slightly different story. The buds are a blend of matte as well as piano Black glossy. The outside part is matte while the inside is glossy.

The buds do not feature any logo or branding, which is a very neat decision. However, going with the glossy is not my personal choice.

Hence, I will deduct some marks. Again, looks are subjective, and you might agree to disagree.

Hence, for looks, I would give these 4/5.

Comfort 4.5/5

Realme T310 earbuds have an in-ear design and come with 2 additional ear tips inside the box. So, how’s the experience gonna be? Well, these are very comfortable earbuds.

Usually, earbuds start to show discomfort within 3 to 4 hours of use. And it can be early if there’s no ANC or transparency mode. But with Realme T310, you can wear these for 5+ hours on constant use.

By default the medium ear tips are applied that makes these quite comfortable for medium to large ears. You can find your comfortable spot by mixing and matching the earbuds.

So if you got small ears like when the in-ear earbuds do not fit, earbuds with half-in ear design needs your attention.

Hence, to sum up comfort, Realme T310 gets a 4.5/5 for comfort.

Grip (4/5)

When it comes to grip, you would need earbuds to offer a snug fit. How would you know that? Well, Realme has an app that can tell whether the ear tips you have applied are resting perfectly.

Run the test, and you would get to know. So, that’ a nice thing from Realme.

Since I have used these for 3 months, these earbuds offer a good grip too. Be it walking, jogging, or weight training, these do not fall off.

However, under extreme sweat, these buds do lose some grip. So just plug them back in, and they are good to go.

So, if you are serious about working out, then I would suggest going with the OnePlus Nord Buds 3 (Review) or OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro.

Otherwise, the Realme T310 is good for grip. In general day to day use, or even while resting on the couch or bed these earbuds do not fall either.

Realme Buds T310 Review – Features (5/5)

When it comes to features, the Realme T310 is simply way out of the league. It has quite similar pricing to OnePlus Nord Buds 3, but the features are even more similar to OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro!

To begin with it has 46 dB of hybrid noise cancellation, along with 3 default noise cancellation settings to choose from.

360 deg spatial audio, audio segment tuning, white sound and so much more.

As far as the Bluetooth connection goes, Realme has offered the latest 5.4, which is great. We did not find a single range from or something even under 5 metres away from the paired devices.

For water and dust resistance, you get an IP55 rating. So, you will be fine with the sweat and some light rain.

Then there’s dual Bluetooth pairing with an active switch. So these will switch devices as needed.

Leave side, EQ customisation, here you can set the intensity of the low mids and highs. Seriously Pro level work.

So is it missing something? Yes, there’s no in-ear detection. Rest, everything in this price category is present.

Hence, for features, I would give it 5/5.

Realme Connect App – Quick Impressions (4/5)

We have tested quite a few earbuds with app support like BoAt, OnePlus, Soundcore, Noise, etc., but nothing comes close to the Realme experience.

There’s so much to do. But let’s start with the negative here. The app promotes so many of their products that it feels like a promotional app instead of a dedicated earbuds app.

You can make changes, though. And when it comes to features and customisation, you will be blown away.

First, you have many options for noise cancellation, like Max, Moderate, Mild, other than the normal mode, and Transparency mode.

Then comes the dynamic audio in the sound effects. Through which you can make changes to the low, medium, and high frequencies. This is the best feature of the app as it makes tuning quite easy.

How can I forget about the Spatial Audio and Volume enhancer? Yup, this makes the overall audio experience spread out better than 2-channel audio. You need experience to know what it is, and it’s guaranteed you will not go back!

The software version is 1.1.0.45. Any model will be updated here.

Realme Buds T310 Sound Quality (5/5)

It all comes to the sound profile as it can make or break the overall experience. So, with 3 months of extensive use, here’s what I think it stands for.

The default EQ, without tuning or making any changes, is tuned for a better vocal and treble experience for podcasts or ebooks.

Loudness is high, and being a bass head using these for longer at full is very tough. Don’t get me wrong, even at max volume, there’s no audio distortion, which is the biggest highlight of the earbuds.

You can also enhance the volume for higher decibels, which can go very loud. Trust me, when I say this, these are the loudest with almost zero audio distortion.

But the moment you try to make customisations, you will start loving these earbuds. There’s so much to talk about.

First, the bass kicks in, and it is top quality. You can literally feel each thump. And you can also edit as per your liking. But if you are a basshead, then this is a good option under 2500 Rs.

Vocals are good too. There’s enough detail and be it any genre you throw at it, it can handle it. Rest customisation are also here. And tune accordingly.

On the scale of 1 to 5, I would give it 4.5/5. Rest you can tune yourself and make it 5/5!

Mic Quality (4/5)

If you have some calls to attend or need earbuds for calling, then this can be. Over the last 3 months, I have taken many calls, be it indoors and outdoors; hence, this feedback is important for you.

Out of the box, the mic output sounds quite processed as it cuts out most of the ambient noise.

For example, the ceiling fan noise, AC humming, and most importantly, vehicle noise like the horn and engine noise. You can confidently take the call anywhere outdoors or indoors.

One thing that can be improved is picking up the people’s chatter. Be it in the bus or the Metro, it does pick up. On a scale of 1 to 5, where close to zero means very less, it is somewhere near 3.

The person on the call will know that you are outdoors. Though your voice will stay in the center, the ambient noise will be transferred on a marginal level.

And the result will be tuned. So out of 5, I would give these 4/5.

ANC + Transparency Mode

Realme T310 comes with 46 dB of hybrid noise cancellation. So what to expect?

The ANC performance is great and decent, but transparency is very good. Let’s divide these sections into great and decent.

Great: These earbuds are great to remove/restrict vehicular noises, industrial low-end frequencies, AC humming, ceiling fan noise.

If you are walking in the park or close to the road you will feel more peaceful and silent. You will get used to ANC!

Another thing to like here is the transparency mode which makes it quite crucial when you are outdoors in dangerous spots like on the road.

It enhances the ambient noise even if you are listening to music you would know more about your surroundings without removing the earbuds.

I have tested quite a few ANC-powered earbuds under 2500 Rs, and this one seems as the best option for transparency.

Decent: The different Noise Cancellation modes, like Mild, Strong, and Max, do not make any changes. If it’s there, it’s negligible. 

Another thing to point out is the people chatter in your proximity. And it’s decent. You will know what they are talking about. This could have been done better. Initially you will hear a slight hissing sound, and it gets normal in a few minutes.

So to sum up the Noise Cancellation and Transparency, we would give these 4/5 for Noise Cancellation and 5/5 for Transparency.

Battery Backup & Charging (4/5)

Realme T310 packs in so much, and it is shown in the battery backup too. As per Realme, the overall battery backup is up to 40 hours, and the rest will be variable as per your needs and habits.

With ANC, the figures will be up to 26 hours. 6 hours on single use. Without ANC, you can get up to 40 hours of battery backup or 9 hours of playback on a single charge.

So what to expect? You should know a few things.

First, ANC, whether mild, strong, or max, or in transparency mode, will certainly have a major impact on the battery backup.

Secondly, the low-latency gaming mode will also take things down. And then the Spatial audio and Voice Enhance to drop the battery backup.

So if you are going to use these at full volume and with ANC or transparency enabled, you could get about 3 to 5 hours of juice.

Battery backup will grow or fall depending on the use case. Hence, to extract the best battery backup, you would need to make adjustments to the ANC & volume.

We did try to use ANC or transparency mode as needed and were able to hit 7+ hours on a single go.

Realme t310 also supports quick charge, which will provide juice for about 5 hours with just 10 minutes of charge. We put it to charge when the buds were at 20% battery, and after 10 minutes, they were 60% charged.

So, in terms of battery backup, it’s certainly not the best in the price segment, but it’s not weak either.

As for charging, Realme T310 is ready in under 1 hour and 30 mins. Which is the quickest we have ever experienced.

So to sum up battery backup and charging, I would give these 4/5.

Wrapping up Realme T310 Review!

Under 2500 Rs, OnePlus has serious competition from Realme and just recently Oppo Enco Buds 3 Pro.

But Realme T310 is very smartly packed with features and a price tag similar to the OnePlus Nord Buds 3, leaving aside the Pro model.

Hence, money-wise, Realme T310 makes more sense. And pro features like 3d audio or spatial audio are a nice addition, and the Realme Link app opens a plethora of features.

So, the Realme T310 earbuds are a perfect earbud under 2500 Rs. And we recommend it to our readers.

That’s about it, folks! Hope this Realme T310 review would have helped in your decision making. If you have any questions do comment below or reach us on Instagram.
