Best Bluetooth Earphones under 1000 in India

If you really want a good Bluetooth neckband, then Rs 1000 is the least amount you should spend.

But, if you want even cheaper Bluetooth earphones for Rs 500-600, we suggest you buy wired earphones instead.

Why? Because buying a Bluetooth earphone costing around Rs 500 will be nothing more than a useless product. The sound quality will spoil your mood.

So it’s better to spend at least Rs 800-1000 to get a good quality Bluetooth earphone.

To help you further, we have listed the best Bluetooth neckbands under 1000 with impressive sound quality.

What to expect from a Bluetooth neckband under 1000?

Keep in mind these are budget Bluetooth earphones. You can’t expect ultra-premium quality from these. But, for the given price, you can expect some good features like:

  • Good build quality
  • Comfortable fit
  • At least 6 hours of battery life
  • Good sound quality with good bass
  • A stable connection

Don’t worry. The earphones listed here have all these features.

Best Bluetooth Neckbands under 1000

1. LAVA Probuds N31

LAVA Probuds N31, Best Neckband under 1000

Main Highlights

⦿ In ear style
⦿ 10 mm driver with ENC
⦿ Bluetooth V5.3 with 12 meter range
⦿ IPX6 Rating
⦿ 280mAh battery, 35 hours of battery life at 80% vol
⦿ Dual pairing, Gaming mode, Fast Charging, Magnetic buds

LAVA has made a comeback after so many years. And, we have to say that LAVA products are shaking up the market, be it their Agni series of smartphones or other products.

Talking about other products, LAVA has silently launched the Probuds N31, and surprisingly, it turns out to be one of the best neckbands under 1000.

But why? What’s so special about the LAVA Probuds N31?

First, its specifications are just impressive for the price.

For instance,

  • You get Bluetooth 5.3 at under 1000, which is not even available on neckbands of Rs 1500 or more. It helps in stable connectivity and better battery life.
  • Dual pairing is a standout feature at this price. No other neckband supports dual-pairing. You might not realize the importance of this feature until you use it.
  • The battery life is just amazing. The company claims 45+ hours of battery life, but you will get 35 hours of music playback at 80% volume, which is impressive.
  • The neckbands of this price come with IPX4 or IPX5 rating, but the LAVA Probuds come with an IPX6 rating for better protection against water.
  • It comes with a 60ms low latency mode, making it ideal for mediocre levels of gaming.

So these are the main features of LAVA Probuds N31. But what about the sound quality?

 Note that there are two types of neckbands under 1000.

  • Those with average sound quality.
  • Those with good sound quality.

The neckbands, that fall in the second category, sound almost the same with minor differences, and the LAVA Probuds N31 falls in a similar category.

It delivers good sound quality, considering the price.

One thing you will like is the bass output. The bass on the Probuds N31 is punchy and has some depth. So when listening to Hip-Hop songs, you will feel the thump of the bass.

The vocals are good, too. However, you should not expect crystal clear vocals at this price because no neckband offers that.

Still, the vocals are sufficiently clear and enjoyable. The trebles are good and crisp. However, the heavy bass compresses the trebles a little bit.

But overall, the sound quality is really good and enjoyable.

Note that the earbuds are tilted 45°, which means they fit perfectly in the ears. The design is comfortable, too.

The wire and neckband are thick and rounded, which feels good and sturdy.

Lastly, the call quality is good, too. The ENC makes a difference, and the person on the other end can hear you properly.

However, the outdoor call quality is just average.

Verdict: The LAVA Probuds N31 has some standout features. Even the sound quality is also very good. It’s a solid all-rounder package and the best neckband under 1000.

Pros and Cons

  • Great build for the price
  • Comfortable fit and design
  • Good sound quality
  • Ideal for heavy bass lovers
  • Good option for gaming
  • Magnetic earbuds
  • Good call quality indoors
  • Great battery life

The earbuds are made of metal, and the neckband is made of soft rubberized material. The wire joining the earbuds to the neckband is sufficiently thick.

For the price, the GOKIXX 652 has a very assuring build quality.

The earbuds are smaller and tilted at 45°. It means they fit perfectly in the ears and don’t cause pain. You can listen to music for hours without any problem.

CrossBeats has been doing a great job in India with their products like Smartwatches, neckbands, TWS, and more.

The company has recently launched the CrossBeats Loop 300 neckband, and we have to say that it packs impressive specifications.

Like the LAVA Probuds N31, the CrossBeats Loop 300 also has Bluetooth 5.3, which ensures a stable connection and a better battery.

But interestingly, Loop 300 has a 13mm driver. Because it’s a bigger driver, it delivers deep and rich bass.

It’s not as rich as expensive neckbands, but for the price, it’s very good.

So if you are a bass lover, you can consider this neckband.

The vocals and treble are clear and crisp, respectively. Even the instrument separation is good, too.

Overall, the sound quality is enjoyable.

One area where the Loop 300 shines is the battery life. In real life, you will get around 38 hours of battery life at 75% volume, which is impressive.

The neckband supports fast charging, too. Charging the neckband to 100% takes around 40 minutes, which is good again.

The call quality is not crystal clear, but surely better than other neckbands. Even the outdoor call quality is good, too.

So if you want a neckband for calling, you can consider the CrossBeats Loop 300.

One unique thing on this neckband is the dedicated gaming button, which is present with the volume buttons.

⦿ Bluetooth V5.0 with 10 meter range
⦿ IPX5 Rating
⦿ 8 hours of battery life at 70% vol

Talking about neckbands and not including Boat neckbands is not possible.

Earlier, we had listed the Boat Rockerz 255 as the best neckband under 1000, but we had to remove it.

Why? Because the Boat Rockerz 255 is no longer available. Its enhanced version 255 Pro Plus is available, but at around Rs 1300.

So if you want the Boat neckband under 1000, then you can pick the Boat Rockerz 245v2.

Despite being an older neckband, it still performs great.

Its build quality is decent for the price. Once, it used to be great, but other companies have offered better build quality neckbands at the same price. So now, 245v2 feels just decent.

The comfort is great. Because the earbuds are small, they fit perfectly in ears and don’t cause fatigue even after hours of music sessions.

It is said to deliver 8 hours of battery life, but you can expect it to last for 7 hours on a single charge at 80% volume. It’s a decent number, as the battery lasts a full day, but you have to charge it every day.

The Boat 245v2 houses a 12mm driver, which delivers a balanced sound output.

We were not expecting it to sound good considering the price, but to our surprise, it sounds good.

The bass is heavy but not to the extreme, and the treble and vocals are tuned well. Even the instrument separation is also on point.

Listening to music has been a good experience on boAt 245v2. So if you prefer balanced sound quality with slightly boosted bass, you will love this neckband.

Like most Bluetooth earphones under 1000, the call quality is average. It’s serviceable, but the person on the other end might face difficulties hearing you properly, especially in a noisy environment.

Features like an IPX5 rating and fast charging are present.

Note that the earbuds are magnetic, but they don’t have any functionality.

Main Highlights

⦿ In ear style
⦿ 12 mm driver
⦿ Bluetooth V5.0 with 10 meter range
⦿ IPX5 Rating
⦿ 5+ hours of battery life at 80% vol
⦿ Dual EQ mode

Infinity (JBL) Glide 120 is one of the most popular and loved Bluetooth neckbands. Its price keeps fluctuating, but you can get it for under Rs 1000.

The build quality is similar to other BT earphones in this range. The entire earphone is made of plastic, but it doesn’t feel cheap.

It sits right on par with other good-quality earphones. The cable and neckband are flexible, and you can bend them in any direction.

The earbuds are made of aluminum which feels premium. Design is also attractive, thanks to the black and yellow color combination.

What’s even attractive are the technical specifications. The Infinity Glide 120 comes with a 12mm driverBluetooth 5.0, and a dual EQ mode.

So do these specifications translate into good audio quality?

In our honest opinion, Yes, they do.

It seems like the 12mm driver is doing a great job of delivering great audio quality.

The dual-equalizer mode is the main highlight of this earphone, and it makes a difference in sound quality.

The earphone goes into normal bass mode by default. This mode is perfect for those who prefer vocals and treble over heavy bass.

Press the volume up and down button together, and the earphone switches to the deep bass mode.

This mode makes a significant difference, and the bass quality improves dramatically. The bass gets too deep, which most bass lovers will adore.

Even in the deep bass mode, the vocals and treble remain clear.

So, the overall sound quality is impressive for both bass and non-bass lovers.

Battery life is just decent. At 80% volume with normal bass mode, you will get around 5 hours of battery life. Switching to the deep bass mode reduces the battery life by a bit.

There is no connection problem, and the earphone gets connected to both phone and laptop easily. Note that there is no dual pair option here.

The call quality is not a highlighting factor. It’s average, just like other BT earphones in this range.

Verdict: The Infinity (JBL) Glide 120 is an impressive BT earphone that delivers a great audio experience. It’s the right earphone for bass and non-bass lovers.
