boAt Airdopes 408 Active Black True Wireless Earbuds

The boAt Airdopes 408 in Active Black is a true wireless earbud built for people who spend as much time on calls as they do on music. Its 10 mm drivers deliver boAt Signature Sound for daily playlists, while ENx technology works on the microphone side to keep your voice clear to the person at the other end. Bluetooth 5.2 keeps the connection efficient, IWP pairing reconnects the earbuds the moment the case opens, and the battery runs to up to six hours per charge and thirty hours in total with the case. An IPX4 rating covers sweat and splashes, touch controls handle the essentials, and the Active Black finish keeps the whole set understated enough for the office and the gym alike.

Sound for music and media

The 10 mm drivers are larger than those in many earbuds of this class, and they give the Airdopes 408 a full, confident presentation across the 20 Hz to 20 kHz range. Bass has enough body for pop, Bollywood and electronic playlists, while the midrange keeps singers, podcast hosts and film dialogue in front of the mix where they belong. Support for SBC and AAC codecs covers Android and Apple devices properly, so the earbuds make the most of whichever phone you pair them with. The in-ear seal adds passive isolation, trimming background noise on trains and in offices so moderate volumes stay comfortable through a working day.

Calls with ENx

ENx is boAt’s environmental noise reduction for the microphone path. It works to separate your voice from surrounding sound, traffic, wind, a busy home, so callers hear you rather than the room. It is worth being precise about what this means: ENx improves the clarity of the voice you send, it is not active noise cancellation for the music you hear, and the Airdopes 408 does not claim ANC. For students in online classes, professionals moving between calls, and anyone who takes voice notes or meetings from a phone, that microphone-side clarity is the feature that gets used every single day.

Fit, build and daily wear

The earbuds follow a compact in-ear design that sits securely with silicone tips, and the complete set with case weighs about 45 g, light enough to live in a pocket without complaint. IPX4 protection covers the realities of Indian daily use: workout sweat, light rain on the ride home and the occasional splash. The rating does not extend to swimming or showering, and the earbuds should be dry before they go back in the case. In Active Black, the earbuds and case share a matte, low-profile finish that hides scuffs well and looks at home next to a laptop as much as next to a water bottle.

Battery and charging

Each earbud carries a 45 mAh battery and plays for up to six hours on a charge, with the case adding up to twenty-four further hours for a thirty-hour total between visits to a socket. That covers a full working week of commutes for most listeners, or several long days of classes and calls. Charging happens over USB Type-C for both the earbuds in the case and the case itself, with a full charge taking around two hours. Four LEDs on the case show the remaining charge level at a glance, so there is no guesswork about when to plug in.

What is in the box

The retail package contains the Airdopes 408 earbuds, the charging case, additional eartips, a charging cable, a user manual and a warranty card. Pair the earbuds once through the Bluetooth menu, choose the tip size that seals best, and IWP handles reconnection from then on.

The Airdopes 408 in Active Black makes a clear case for itself: bigger drivers for music, ENx for the calls that fill a working day, thirty hours of total listening and a fit that survives the commute and the workout. It is a balanced, honest everyday earbud with its priorities in the right order.
