The GOBOULT WiredX 250 is a basic in-ear wired earphone with a 3.5mm jack, an inline microphone and a one-button remote. It is meant for people who want plug-in audio for calls, online classes, music and casual gaming without having to charge anything. If your phone, laptop or PC still has a 3.5mm headphone socket and you want a simple pair from an Indian audio brand, it fits that brief. If your phone has only a USB-C port, it will not plug in without an adapter.
The short verdict: the WiredX 250 looks like a sensible everyday or spare earphone for calls and casual listening, but its published specifications are inconsistent, especially on driver size. Buy it for convenience and compatibility, not for a single headline number.
Please note: this article is based on the seller’s Amazon.in listing, published specification databases and general buying guidance, not on hands-on testing by GadgetSoch. We could not open GOBOULT’s official product page for this model when we checked on 17 October 2026, and we found no independent review of it, so every spec below is labelled with its source.
Quick verdict
- Best for: students, office workers and frequent callers who want a no-charging earphone with mic for a device that has a 3.5mm jack
- Skip if: your phone has no headphone jack, you need noise cancellation, or you want measured sound-quality results before you buy
- Key strengths: universal 3.5mm plug, inline mic and multi-function button, voice assistant support listed, a light 20g item weight according to the Amazon.in listing, and a 1-year manufacturer warranty listed
- Key limitations: driver size appears as 10mm, 12mm and 13mm in different places, the Amazon listing gives no water-resistance rating, there is no noise control, and no independent reviews were available to us

Smartprix is a specification aggregator, not the manufacturer, so treat its figures as secondary. The Amazon technical details also give the model name as “Airbass”, which looks like a template entry carried over from another product rather than this model’s name.

The driver-size confusion, and why it matters less than you think
According to the Amazon.in listing, the WiredX 250 has 12mm bass drivers (title), 10mm dynamic drivers (feature bullet) and 13mm drivers (technical details). Only one of these can be right for the same product. Smartprix’s spec page agrees with the 10mm figure, which makes it the most likely answer, but we could not confirm it from GOBOULT directly.
A larger driver can move more air, which makes it easier to produce strong bass at a given volume. In earphones, though, driver size is only one part of the sound. Tuning, the shape of the housing, the seal of the ear tip and the device you plug into all change what you hear. The practical takeaway: do not choose this earphone over another purely because of a bigger millimetre number.
If the exact driver size matters to you, check the images and description on the live listing when you order, and keep the box and invoice in case what arrives does not match.
Design, fit and everyday comfort
The WiredX 250 is an in-ear design, so the silicone tip sits inside the ear canal. In-ear earphones block more outside sound passively than open-style earbuds, and a snug seal is also what delivers bass. If the tips feel loose, bass will sound thin and outside noise will leak in, so getting the fit right matters more than any spec.
The listing names “Eartip” as the box content but does not say how many sizes are included. If the pre-fitted tips do not seal, replacement silicone tips in other sizes are easy to find.
The Amazon.in listing gives the item weight as 20g, which is light enough that the cable should not drag the earpieces out during calls or walks. Smartprix lists the cable length as 1.2m. That is comfortable for a phone in a pocket or a laptop on a desk, but it may feel short if you plug into a desktop tower under a table. A 3.5mm extension cable solves that.
Calls, mic and inline controls
The inline microphone is the main reason to pick a wired earphone like this over a cheap pair without one. A wired mic does not depend on Bluetooth, so there is no pairing, no battery to run out mid-call and no switching between phone and laptop. Smartprix lists the single button as handling play/pause and accept/reject calls, and both Smartprix and the Amazon listing say voice assistant activation is supported. Neither source lists volume buttons, so expect to change volume on your device.
Button behaviour (single, double or long press) can vary between phones, so check the manual in the box.
For laptops, the important detail is the jack. Most current laptops have a single combined headset jack that carries both audio and mic, and a 3.5mm earphone with mic will work there. Many desktop PCs have separate pink (mic) and green (headphone) sockets. On those, the WiredX 250 will play sound, but the mic will only work with a Y-splitter that separates the two signals.
Sound and noise: what you can realistically expect
The Amazon listing describes the sound as deep bass with clear vocals and balanced audio. That is a marketing claim, and we found no independent measurements or reviews to confirm it.
Wired earphones still have real advantages. There is no Bluetooth delay, so video lip-sync and mobile gaming feel immediate. There is no battery to wear out and no wireless compression.
The listing states “Noise Control: None”, which means no active noise cancellation. Any quiet you get comes from the ear tips sealing your ear. On a bus or metro, resist the urge to compensate by turning the volume very high. Long sessions at high volume can harm hearing.
Water and sweat resistance
This is another place where the sources do not line up. The Amazon.in listing only says “Water Resistant” without a rating, and its title does not mention one. Smartprix lists the WiredX 250 as IPX5 rated.
Under the IEC 60529 standard, IPX5 means protection against water jets from a nozzle. In everyday terms, that covers sweat and splashes, not dunking or rinsing under a tap. Because the rating is not confirmed by GOBOULT or the Amazon title, treat the WiredX 250 as suitable for light sweat only. Wipe it dry after a workout and do not store it damp.
Who should buy it, and who should skip it
- Buy it if your phone, tablet or laptop has a 3.5mm jack and you want a simple earphone for calls, classes and video
- Buy it if you want a backup pair that never needs charging, for travel bags, office drawers or a second device
- Skip it if your phone has only a USB-C port and you do not want to carry an adapter
- Skip it if you need noise cancellation for long commutes or flights
- Skip it if you want an earphone with confirmed, published sound and durability results
Alternatives worth comparing
GOBOULT WiredX 500: the step-up sibling uses a USB-C connector instead of 3.5mm, and its Amazon.in listing claims IPX5 water and sweat resistance and a 1-year warranty. Choose it if your phone has no headphone jack.
GOBOULT BassBuds X1: Croma’s product page lists 10mm drivers, a 3.5mm L-shaped plug, an inline mic with volume control, an IPX5 rating and a 12-month warranty. The inline volume control is the practical difference if you want to adjust sound without touching the phone.
GoBoult XO Pro Type-C: Digit’s spec page lists a dynamic driver, a 20Hz to 20kHz frequency response, a microphone and voice assistant support. It is another USB-C option, though Digit does not list its driver size.

What to check before you order
- Variant: the link in this article is for the WiredX 250 in Black with a 3.5mm jack. Confirm the model name and connector in the listing title before you pay
- Your device’s port: many newer phones have no 3.5mm jack. You would need a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter, ideally one with a built-in DAC, if your phone has no analogue output
- PC sockets: if your desktop has separate mic and headphone jacks, budget for a Y-splitter
- Box contents: the listing only names ear tips, so do not expect a pouch or extra accessories unless the live listing says so
- Warranty and service: the listing gives a 1-year manufacturer warranty and names Exotic Mile Private Limited (Boult Audio), New Delhi, as the manufacturer. Keep your Amazon invoice, because warranty claims normally need it
- Spec claims: because driver size and water rating differ across sources, check the live listing and packaging if either matters to you

Frequently asked questions
Does the GOBOULT WiredX 250 have a microphone?
Yes. Both the Amazon.in listing and Smartprix list an inline microphone with a multi-function button for calls and media, so it works as a headset for phone calls, video meetings and online classes.
Will the WiredX 250 work with a USB-C-only phone?
Not directly, because it uses a 3.5mm plug. You would need a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter. If you do not want an adapter, a USB-C earphone such as the GOBOULT WiredX 500 is the simpler choice.
What is the driver size of the GOBOULT WiredX 250?
The sources disagree. The Amazon.in listing mentions 12mm, 10mm and 13mm in different sections, and Smartprix lists 10mm dynamic drivers. We could not confirm the figure from GOBOULT’s own page, so check the live listing and packaging.
Is the GOBOULT WiredX 250 waterproof?
No earphone in this class should be treated as waterproof. Smartprix lists an IPX5 rating, which covers sweat and splashes, but the Amazon listing only says “Water Resistant” without a rating. Keep it away from heavy rain and never submerge it.
What warranty does it come with?
The Amazon.in listing and Smartprix both state a 1-year manufacturer warranty. Keep the invoice and the box, and check GOBOULT’s support channels for the claim process.
Final verdict
The GOBOULT WiredX 250 does the basics that matter for a wired earphone: a universal 3.5mm plug, an inline mic, a simple remote and no battery to worry about. Its weakness is the listing itself, which gives three different driver sizes and no clear water rating. If you mainly need a dependable plug-in earphone for calls and everyday listening on a device with a headphone jack, it is worth a look. Check the current price of the GOBOULT WiredX 250 on Amazon.in.
