When first Apple AirPods arrived in the market it just changed the earphones industry more and more earphones makers start moving to Truly wireless technology also known as TWS. Now Leaf just joins the race with there first truly wireless earphones with a smart looking charging case.
Leaf Pods are available on Amazon India for Rs. 3,999 and this is one of the cheapest true wireless earphones in the market today. But how they performed in real life that’s what I’m going to tell you in this article.
Leaf Pods True Wireless Earphones Review with Pros & Cons
Firstly Let’s talk about unboxing
In-box content
Leaf Pods Box is very simple and small and packaging is very minimal which i liked, first thing which we find inside the box is leaf pods with charging case under this we found a small size micro USB cable for charging purpose, user manual, warranty card, extra ear tips, and fins and a mono side charger.
That’s all you get inside the box of leaf pods and now let’s check how’s the build quality.
Build Quality
Leaf pods are completely made of plastic with a premium rubber finish on top which makes these buds very soft and grippy to hold I’m pretty sure this will never be slipped out easily from your hands or ears. On both earbuds, we have a button which you can use for play/pause music or accept or reject the call and if you long press the same button then it will trigger smart assistant if you are using android then it should be google now and Siri in case of iPhone user.
In general build quality of Leaf pods is solid buttons are clicky and feels good, the material used to build ear pods is premium and overall finishing is very good.
But when you see leaf pods charging inside the charging case you will fell in love with it. It looks super cute while charging when lights are on It looks like a small baby robot with eyes and nose and apart from cuteness case quality is also very nice and offer solid grip due to rubber finishing.
So, in terms of build quality and looks, I’ll give leaf pods 10/10 without any doubt.
Battery Life
The biggest concern about any True wireless earbuds is battery life because it’s small in size so comes with small size battery which mostly lasts for a very short period but surprisingly leaf pods easily last for 5 to 5.5 hours on a single charge which is around 2 hours as per what leaf said but I’m satisfied with above 5 hours and you also have carry case with battery inside so you can charge full 3 times with carrying case which is great so all-in-all you got somewhat around 20+hours battery backup.
So, in the battery department, I’m giving 9 out of 10 to leaf pods considering it’s price.

Sound Quality
I used these Leaf pods for 3 days and after that, I can say this is one of the best true wireless earphones you can buy under Rs. 4000 in Indian market today.
There are various reason why these are the best start from the sound output i used many earphones in the past and leaf pods are few of them which I actually like to use due to very well balance sound output which doesn’t hurt your ears in long time movie watching and music listening.
Bass is as listed on the box is deep and feels natural doesn’t feel boosted like boat. Vocal is nicely audible and crisp no problem. treble is also balanced. So, lows and highs frequency is pretty well managed. Overall I can say the sound quality is fantastic on Leaf Pods with deep bass.
Leaf Pods also has a built-in mic for calling and audio is very clear to the second person, bit sharp but clear.
Overall in term of sound quality, I’ll like to rate them 9/10.
Connectivity & Control Options
Leaf Pods have Bluetooth version 5.0 which is latest in the market and due to that connectivity and pairing process is very easy just pull out both ear pods from the case and they automatically pair with each other and scan for the Bluetooth device in your mobile or laptop and hit connect that’s it a very simple and easy process.
Wireless range of these earphones is around 10-15 meters.
for control, there is one button on both side which you can use for play/pause or accept/reject calls and on long press, you can use the smart assistant on your phone.
As we all know nothing is perfect in this world so leaf pods also have some pros and cons lets talk about them too.
Pros:
- Solid Build Quality and attractive case design.
- Very good sound quality.
- Good enough battery life.
- Great for running and GYM workout.
- IPX5 Water Resistant
Cons:
- As most of the wireless earphone, there is a tiny second delay of sound.
So, Guys, that’s all I want to say about Leaf Pods overall I really liked it and highly recommend to anyone without any doubt.
