The boAt Airdopes Prime 412 is a budget pair of truly wireless earbuds built around long battery life, two-device connection and clearer calls, not active noise cancellation for music. According to its Amazon.in listing, it claims up to 50 hours of total playback, a 10-minute ASAP Charge for up to 240 minutes of playtime, four microphones with boAt’s AI-ENx call noise reduction, multipoint connectivity and Bluetooth 5.4. Our short verdict: it looks like a sensible everyday pair for calls, commuting and long days away from a charger, but it is not the one to buy if you want to block out traffic or aircraft noise.
This article covers the Midnight Black colour, listed with model number PB0004. It suits students, office workers who switch between a phone and a laptop, and casual mobile gamers.
Please note: this article is based on the Amazon.in listing and published specifications, not on hands-on testing by GadgetSoch. We tried to open boAt’s official product page on 17 October 2026, but it could not be loaded at the time, so the specifications below come from the Amazon.in listing (seller-provided information captured on 17 October 2026, when the product was in stock). Where a figure is the listing’s claim, we say so.
Quick verdict
- Best for: frequent callers, commuters and multitaskers who want long battery life and two-device connection on a budget
- Skip if: you need active noise cancellation for music, a dust-resistance rating, or confirmed codec details
- Key strengths (listing claims): up to 50 hours total playback, 10 minutes of charging for up to 240 minutes of playtime, 4 mics with AI-ENx, multipoint, Bluetooth 5.4, Google Fast Pair, 60 ms BEAST Mode and IPX5
- Key limitations: the listing does not confirm ANC for music (its own data is inconsistent on this), per-earbud playtime and codec support are not stated, and IPX5 covers sweat and splashes only

One caution about the listing’s own data. The technical-details table on Amazon.in labels the noise control as “Active Noise Cancellation”, yet the product title and every feature bullet describe only the four-mic AI-ENx system, which boAt markets for call noise reduction. Since music ANC is not described anywhere else on the listing, we treat it as unconfirmed and do not count it as a feature. The same table lists an impedance of 90 ohms and box contents of “Additional Earmuffs, Cable, TWS Earbuds, User Manual”. The charging case is not named in that line, probably an omission, but check when you unbox.
Battery life: what “50 hours” means in daily use
The 50-hour figure is a total. It adds the playback stored in the boAt Airdopes Prime 412 to the extra charges held in the charging case. The listing does not say how many hours the earbuds last on a single charge, and that number decides how long you can listen before you have to dock them.
Brands measure battery claims under their own conditions. Louder listening, frequent calls and gaming mode tend to drain earbuds faster, so treat 50 hours as a best case rather than a promise.
The ASAP Charge claim is the more useful feature for many buyers. According to the listing, 10 minutes on the boAt Airdopes Prime 412 gives up to 240 minutes of playtime. A short top-up while you get ready can cover a typical commute. The listing does not state the full charging time or the charging-port type, so check the cable in the box and keep a compatible adapter handy.
Calls and the four-mic AI-ENx system
AI-ENx is boAt’s name for environmental noise reduction on calls. It works on your outgoing voice: the microphones pick up your speech along with the background, and processing tries to suppress the background so the person on the other end hears you more clearly. It does not reduce the noise you hear. That is the job of active noise cancellation, which this listing does not clearly claim.
More microphones give the processing more information to separate your voice from wind, traffic or office chatter, but real call clarity also depends on fit, wind and your network. We could not find an independent call test of this model to cite, so if calls are your main use, test them within the return window.
Multipoint, Google Fast Pair and the Hearables app
Multipoint means the boAt Airdopes Prime 412 can stay connected to two devices at once, for example your phone and your work laptop. When a call comes in on the phone during a laptop video session, you can take it without going into Bluetooth settings to disconnect one device and connect the other. It is one of the strongest reasons to consider this pair.
Google Fast Pair lets an Android phone detect the earbuds as soon as you open the case and pair them with a single tap. The listing adds that you can personalise the pairing name and use it to locate misplaced buds. Fast Pair is designed for Android, so iPhone users pair through the normal Bluetooth menu instead.
The listing says the boAt Hearables app shows battery and connection status and has toggles for features. It does not list a custom equaliser or firmware updates, so do not assume either until you see them in the app.
Sound and gaming mode
Each earbud uses an 11 mm dynamic driver, which boAt says is tuned for its “Signature Sound”. The listing calls it “thumping”, which suggests bass-forward tuning, but driver size alone does not tell you how clear vocals will be, and the listing does not name the supported codecs.
BEAST Mode is boAt’s low-latency setting for gaming, with a claimed 60 ms delay. Lower latency keeps sound closer in sync with the screen, which helps in casual mobile games. Competitive players who need the tightest sync are still better off with wired earphones.
Build, fit and water resistance
The IPX5 rating means the earbuds are tested against low-pressure water jets, so sweat during a workout or light rain on a walk should not be a problem. The “X” means they have not been rated for dust. IPX5 is not designed for swimming or rinsing under a tap, and the charging case is usually not covered by the rating at all, so dry the earbuds before you put them back.
Fit matters more than usual on a pair without confirmed ANC, because the ear tip’s seal is what blocks outside noise and lets the bass come through. The listing mentions additional ear tips in the box. Try each size on the first day and pick the one that seals best without pressure.
Who it suits, and who should look elsewhere
Good fit for
- Frequent callers who want a four-mic setup
- Anyone who switches between a phone and a laptop
- Students and commuters who want to charge rarely
- Casual mobile gamers
Look elsewhere if
- You want to cut out bus, metro or cabin noise while listening to music
- You need confirmed high-quality codec support
- You want a dust rating as well as water resistance
Alternatives worth comparing
boAt Airdopes 311 Pro: a simpler boAt option. boAt claims up to 50 hours of total playback, 10 minutes of charging for up to 150 minutes, a 50 ms BEAST Mode and Bluetooth 5.3, but it has dual mics with ENx rather than four, and a lower IPX4 rating.
boAt Airdopes 141 ANC: if you want real noise cancellation from boAt, this model lists ANC up to 32 dB, quad mics with ENx, up to 42 hours of total playback, a 50 ms BEAST Mode and IPX5. Our boAt Airdopes 141 ANC review explains what that ANC can and cannot do.
OnePlus Nord Buds 3: OnePlus lists up to 32 dB ANC, Bluetooth 5.4, dual-device connection, Google Fast Pair, IP55 earbuds and up to 43 hours with the case with ANC off.
realme Buds T310: realme lists hybrid ANC up to 46 dB with a transparency mode, dual-device connection, Bluetooth 5.4, IP55 and up to 40 hours of total playback with ANC off. For more options, see our guide to the best budget TWS earbuds in India.
What to check before you order
- Variant: the link on this page is for the Midnight Black colour. Confirm the colour and the name “Airdopes Prime 412” on the listing, because boAt sells many similarly named Airdopes models
- ANC: if noise cancellation for music matters, do not rely on the technical-details table alone. Look for a clear ANC claim in the title, bullets or brand page
- Box contents: check that the charging case, cable and spare ear tips are present, since the listing’s box-contents line is incomplete
- Charger: the listing does not mention an adapter, so plan to use your phone charger
- Warranty: the listing states 1 year from the date of purchase. Keep your Amazon invoice, as service claims usually need proof of purchase
If those points check out, you can see the boAt Airdopes Prime 412 in Midnight Black on Amazon.in and confirm the current price and delivery date for your pin code.
Frequently asked questions
Does the boAt Airdopes Prime 412 have active noise cancellation?
The title and feature bullets on the Amazon.in listing only describe AI-ENx, which reduces background noise on calls. The technical-details table says “Active Noise Cancellation”, but nothing else on the listing backs that up, so treat music ANC as unconfirmed.
How long does the battery last?
The listing claims up to 50 hours of total playback with the charging case. It does not give a per-earbud figure. Actual battery life will be lower at high volume or with gaming mode on.
Can it connect to a phone and a laptop at the same time?
Yes, according to the listing, which describes multipoint connectivity that keeps the earbuds connected to two devices at once.
Can I use it in the gym or in the rain?
The listing claims IPX5, which covers sweat and splashes. It is not made for swimming, and it has no dust rating.
Final word
On paper, the boAt Airdopes Prime 412 puts the right features in the right places for everyday use: a long total battery claim, a generous fast charge, four call mics, multipoint and a newer Bluetooth version. The main question mark is noise cancellation, which the listing does not clearly confirm, so buy it for calls, multitasking and battery life rather than for silence on a flight. If that matches your needs, check the current price of the boAt Airdopes Prime 412 on Amazon.in.
