Boat has stayed on top of the Indian wearables market, having rolled out the Boat Rockers 330 Pro neckband-style earphones last month. The company, shifted focus to smartwatches over the last quarter as compared to earpieces, is now back with the Boat Airdopes 601 truly wireless stereo earbuds. 

The Airdopes 601 TWS earbuds is the first from the brand to sport the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) feature. The hybrid ANC offered in the earbuds suppresses the background noises up to 33dB for a high-quality audio experience. In addition, they also offer Google Voice Assistant support and fast pairing. 

Boat Airdopes 601 pricing, availability

Boat Airdopes 601 ANC earbuds can be purchased from Flipkart for Rs 3,999. You can also get them from the official website of Boat. 

What we didn't quite figure out is why the device is listed with a retail price of Rs.9,990, with a legend that one is getting a 60% discount (see image below). Does this mean the prices could be going up in the foreseeable future? 

As of now, the earbuds are being shipped in two different colors - Purity White and Black.
