Cover graphic: Noise Buds Trance Review: 45-Hour Battery and 40ms Low Latency, but No ANC

The Noise Buds Trance are budget truly wireless earbuds built around three headline claims: up to 45 hours of total playtime with the charging case, a low-latency mode rated at up to 40 ms, and Instacharge, where a 10-minute top-up is said to deliver about 200 minutes of playback. If you want long battery life and lag-free casual gaming on a small budget, and you do not need active noise cancellation, they deserve a place on your shortlist. If you need ANC, two-device pairing or a stated water-resistance rating, you should look at other models.

This article covers the Space Blue variant sold on Amazon.in (model number AUD-HDPHN-BUDSTRANCE-RBLU, according to the listing). It is based on the Amazon.in listing details captured on 17 October 2026 (the brand’s claims as listed on its Amazon store), not on hands-on testing. Our request to open Noise’s official product page was refused (rate-limited) on that date, so specifications below are labelled as listing claims where the listing is their only source.

In short, the Buds Trance are a battery-and-latency play. The drivers are small at 6 mm, the listing states that there is no noise control feature, and details such as microphone count, IP rating and app support are not mentioned in the listing we reviewed.

Quick verdict

  • Best for: students and commuters who want long total battery life and a low-latency mode for casual mobile gaming and video
  • Skip if: you need active noise cancellation, dual-device pairing or a confirmed sweat and water-resistance rating
  • Key strengths: claimed 45 hours total playtime, 10 minutes of charging for 200 minutes of playback, up to 40 ms latency claim, Bluetooth 5.3, USB Type-C charging
  • Key limitations: no ANC (the listing marks noise control as “False”), small 6 mm drivers, microphone setup and IP rating not stated on the listing, standard 1-year warranty

Design and fit: what a “bean” shape means

Noise describes the Buds Trance as having a bean design meant for all-day comfort. Bean-style earbuds have no stem: the whole bud sits in the outer bowl of the ear rather than hanging down towards the jaw. In practice that gives a lower profile, which can help if you wear a helmet, a cap or lie on your side while listening. The trade-off is that the touch surface is smaller and the fit depends more heavily on your ear shape and on how well the ear tips seal.

The seal matters. Without active noise cancellation, it is the only thing blocking outside noise, and it also shapes bass. The listing’s box contents do not mention spare ear tips, so check the images or manual if you usually need a different size.

One detail needs attention. The listing title calls this variant Space Blue, while a feature bullet on the same listing names five colours (Slate Black, Dusk Blue, Light Olive, Blush Pink and Coral Peach) without mentioning Space Blue. That is probably a naming difference between the bullet text and the variant title, but confirm the colour shown in the product images before you place the order.

Battery life and Instacharge

The 45-hour figure is a total that combines the earbuds’ own battery with the extra charges stored in the case. The Amazon.in listing does not say how long the earbuds last on a single charge, which decides whether they survive a long flight without going back into the case. Treat 45 hours as a measure of how rarely you will plug in the case.

Instacharge is the more practical claim for many buyers. According to the listing, 10 minutes of charging gives 200 minutes of playtime, which is a little over three hours. If you regularly forget to charge before leaving home, a short top-up while you get ready could cover a typical commute both ways. Charging is through a USB Type-C port, so the same cable you use for most current Android phones should work.

Brand battery figures are usually measured at moderate volume, and no independent battery test of the Buds Trance was available to us, so we cannot say how close real use comes to the claim.

Low latency: who actually benefits

Bluetooth audio always arrives slightly after the picture because sound has to be compressed, sent and decoded. You never notice it with music, but in shooters and rhythm games a delay between an on-screen action and its sound is distracting. Noise claims latency of up to 40 ms, the kind of figure budget brands quote for a game mode.

For casual gaming and videos, that is generally enough to keep voices in sync. Competitive players may still prefer wired earphones, which avoid Bluetooth delay entirely. The listing does not explain how the low-latency mode is switched on, so check the manual.

Sound: what 6 mm drivers tell you, and what they do not

The Buds Trance use 6 mm dynamic drivers, according to the listing, which promises “detailed sound and powerful bass”. Driver size is only one factor in sound quality. Tuning, the shape of the sound chamber and the ear-tip seal matter just as much. Small drivers can sound good, but on spec sheets in this segment many rivals list 10 mm to 13 mm drivers, usually aimed at stronger bass.

We have not listened to these earbuds and could not open an independent review for this article, so we will not describe how they sound. The listing also does not state supported Bluetooth codecs. If sound is your top priority, read independent reviews first.

Calls, microphones and noise

The Amazon.in listing marks noise control as “False”, and none of the feature bullets mention active noise cancellation. That means the Buds Trance rely only on passive isolation from the ear tips. In a noisy bus or metro you will hear more of your surroundings than you would with ANC earbuds, and you may be tempted to raise the volume, which is worth avoiding for long sessions.

For calls, the listing does not state the microphone count or whether environmental noise cancellation (ENC) is used, so call clarity in traffic is unknown. Frequent callers should prefer a model that states quad-mic ENC.

Connectivity and compatibility

The earbuds use Bluetooth 5.3, and the listing names phones, laptops, tablets, desktops and gaming consoles as compatible devices. A desktop needs Bluetooth or a USB adapter, and not every console supports Bluetooth audio output, so check yours.

The listing mentions Google Assistant and Siri support. It does not mention multipoint (dual pairing), a companion app or a custom equaliser, so assume the Buds Trance connect to one device at a time.

Who should buy the Noise Buds Trance

  • Casual mobile gamers who want a low-latency claim without paying for ANC
  • Buyers who prefer a stemless, low-profile design
  • Anyone who wants USB Type-C charging and quick top-ups

  • Office users who switch between a laptop and phone all day and need multipoint
  • Gym users and runners who need a confirmed IP rating for sweat

Alternatives worth comparing

Noise Buds N1: a sibling from the same brand that leans more towards calls. According to Noise’s official page (checked for our Noise Buds N1 review), it has 11 mm drivers, quad-mic ENC, up to 40 hours of total playtime, up to 40 ms latency, Bluetooth 5.3 and an IPX5 rating. Like the Buds Trance it has no ANC, and Noise lists no dual pairing.

boAt Airdopes 141 Gen 2: boAt’s official page lists 10 mm drivers, Bluetooth 5.4, up to 48 hours of playtime, ASAP Charge of 10 minutes for 180 minutes, four ENx microphones, a 65 ms BEAST Mode and IPX4. It also has no ANC, but it states a microphone setup and water-resistance rating.

realme Buds T310: if ANC matters, realme lists 46 dB hybrid ANC, a 12.4 mm driver, up to 40 hours of total playback with ANC off, Bluetooth 5.4, IP55, dual-device connection and a 45 ms game mode. For a wider view of the segment, see our guide to the best budget TWS earbuds in India.

What to check before you order

Noise Buds Trance buying checklist
What to check before you buy the Noise Buds Trance.
  • Variant and colour: this link is for the Space Blue listing (model AUD-HDPHN-BUDSTRANCE-RBLU). Confirm the colour in the images, because the listing’s colour names are not consistent
  • Box contents: no charging adapter is listed, so plan to use your phone charger
  • Warranty: the listing states a 1-year manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase. Keep your invoice and the registration card
  • Missing details: IP rating, microphone count, per-earbud battery life and codec support are not stated on the listing

Noise’s official page for the earbuds is at gonoise.com. We could not open it on 17 October 2026, so compare its specification table with the listing yourself if a detail is important. When you are ready, see the Noise Buds Trance in Space Blue on Amazon.in and confirm the variant before checking out.

Frequently asked questions

Do the Noise Buds Trance have active noise cancellation?

No. The Amazon.in listing marks noise control as “False”, and no feature bullet mentions ANC. Outside noise is reduced only by the ear-tip seal.

How long does the Noise Buds Trance battery last?

The listing claims up to 45 hours of total playtime including the charging case. It does not state how long the earbuds last on a single charge, and real-world runtime depends on volume and usage.

Are the Noise Buds Trance good for gaming?

For casual mobile gaming they are a reasonable fit on paper, because Noise claims latency of up to 40 ms. Competitive players who need the most precise audio timing may still prefer wired earphones.

Can the Buds Trance connect to two devices at once?

The listing does not mention dual pairing or multipoint, so you should assume they connect to one device at a time.

Are the Noise Buds Trance water resistant?

The Amazon.in listing we reviewed does not state an IP rating. Check Noise’s official product page or the manual before using them for workouts or in the rain.

Final verdict

The Noise Buds Trance suit a buyer who values a long total battery claim, fast top-ups and low latency more than noise cancellation or call features. The weak points are the missing ANC and multipoint, plus what the listing leaves out: IP rating, microphone details and per-charge battery life. If those gaps do not bother you, check the current price of the Noise Buds Trance on Amazon.in. If they do, the Noise Buds N1 or the realme Buds T310 are worth comparing first.
