Let us recap and get to know what actually is "truly" wireless.


While talking about wireless earphones people might not be able to differentiate between True wireless and just wireless. First, we talk about the similarity of the two which is, both of these categories do not have a cable that connects to your phone.

Now the difference is that truly wireless earbuds do not sport any cable whatsoever, the individual earbuds are not connected to each other via a cable like in the Wireless earbuds. Wireless earbuds are connected to each other in some way either over the head or around the neck. This slight difference vastly differentiates the two categories of earphones.

How do truly wireless Earbuds work?


Bluetooth has changed the way we wear and listen to the audio. It has freed us from the struggle of wires. These truly wireless earbuds can be used for active listening and also during workouts. They have changed the whole wireless experience. Both truly wireless and wireless earphones might seem to work in the same fashion but that's not the case. The new truly wireless earphones work in a slightly different manner.

All of the truly wireless and wireless earphones work on Bluetooth and in a fairly simple manner. The Bluetooth sends signals between the source devices i.e. your phone, laptop to your earphones. The truly wireless earbuds work like a TV dish, which catches the signals and plays it.

Now Bluetooth has its own versions and Bluetooth 5 being the latest has slightly changed the interactions between the devices. It has made it faster, efficient and smoother.

Nowadays every pair of truly wireless earbuds have a master or primary earbuds which acts as a bridge between the source device and the secondary earbuds. This creates a small network termed as "piconet". The master earbud is responsible for the formation of the piconet, audio transmission and preventing any lag.

The primary drawback for truly wireless earphones has always been latency. This latency is prevented by the master earbuds. This is done by calculating the time taken by the data to travel around the piconet. Once this is calculated the earbuds optimize themselves to prevent any latency aka audio lag.
