Realme has been teasing its upcoming wireless earbuds for quite some time now. The company has now confirmed a big feature for the Realme Buds Air. Company CEO Madhav Sheth revealed the Buds Air's will come with a wireless charging and is compatible with any Qi-standard wireless charger.

Interestingly enough, the wireless charging feature was leaked just a day ago. A GSMArena report revealed a black colour charging case on top of a wireless charger. The report also confirmed the presence of a black colour model of the Buds Air.

Realme Buds Air is scheduled to launch on December 17 alongside Realme X2, said to be a rebranded Realme XT 730G. The Buds Air looks very similar to Apple's Air Pods true wireless headphones. The charging case is also identical to AirPods'. Realme, however, is expected to launch the product at a much lower price than Apple's and give more colour options such as yellow and black. Also, Apple offers a wireless charge case separately.
