iQOO has held a launch event in China, which has brought out the iQOO TWS 2 and the iQOO Pad Air. Both the new products come with an affordable price tag and aim to offer a good overall value. We’ve already covered the iQOO Pad Air in detail, which you can read all about by clicking this link.
Now, let’s give you a rundown of the iQOO TWS 2 wireless earbuds. The Bluetooth buds are currently available in China with a price tag of CNY399, which is around $55. At this price, they are offering a lot of things that you don’t find even in the $100 up range.
Main Highlights of the iQOO TWS 2 Earbuds
As hinted earlier, the iQOO TWS 2 earbuds come with a lot of advanced features. Here’s a brief description of the standouts:
Premium Audio Codec Support
One of the big highlights of the earbuds is the support for LDAC and aptX Adaptive. These are two of the high-end codecs that you usually see in the flagship earbuds, such as the Sony WF-1000XM5 and Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds. With these codecs, you get detailed audio transmission, which preserves the sound quality.
Of course, not all smartphones come with the support for aptX Adaptive and LDAC. So, for wide compatibility, the iQOO TWS 2 has support for AAC and SBC as well.
Advanced Audio Driver Setup
Premium codecs won’t mean anything if the driver setup of the wireless earbuds can’t deliver. Well, the good news is that the iQOO TWS 2 has an advanced driver config. The buds come with 12.2 mm ultra-wideband drivers. These can offer a frequency range of 16 Hz to 48 KHz.
What’s more is that these drivers are backed by the Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 Gen 2 audio platform. Combined with DeepX 3.0 stereo sound, you get crisp audio performance.

Moreover, the TWS 2 offers you the option to customize the sound according to your preference. There are multiple sound effects that you can choose from. But if you don’t want to go through the hassle of fine-tuning things, you can select adaptive EQ. There’s also a dedicated eSports sound effect by Monster Sound on these wireless earbuds.
Noise Cancellation Performance and Connectivity of iQOO TWS 2
To further enhance the audio experience, the iQOO TWS 2 buds have effective Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) tech. To be specific, the ANC of the buds can deliver a noise reduction of up to 55 dB. That means you can get a proper immersive audio listening experience with these buds.
When it comes to connectivity, the iQOO TWS 2 earbuds have Bluetooth 5.4. It’s the latest standard, meaning that you get all the latest wireless tech. That includes quick pairing and 44 ms low-latency mode. The latter can come in handy for competitive gaming.
Other Features of the Earbuds
Besides all the things mentioned above, the iQOO TWS 2 also has a good microphone setup. It can focus on your voice and offer you a good calling experience even in noisy environments. Next is the battery life, which is quite reliable. The buds can offer up to 45 hours of run time with a fully charged carrying case.
Other highlights include an IP54 rating for worry-free outdoor listening and fast charging. The buds are available in Electric white and Phantom Yellow. There’s no word on global availability yet, but the iQOO TWS 2 may get rebranded as the vivo TWS 4 for the international markets.
