U4IA — a Nepali startup, entered the accessories market with several products. Now they are expanding their portfolio with two new earbuds. One of which is U4IA Alpha which comes with ANC among other things. In this article, we will discuss these buds in further detail along with its price in Nepal.
U4IA Alpha Overview
Design and Audio
The U4IA Alpha comes in an AirPod Pro-esque design with in-ear fitting and full White colour. However, their stems and more importantly the charging case with prominent company branding are key giveaways that it is a different product. Regardless, these earbuds come with IPX5 rating giving it resistance to water and sweat.
Inside, they pack a 10mm driver and two microphones on each side for all the audio duties. U4IA claims that the Alpha earbuds offer an immersive sound quality. Meanwhile, the quad-microphone setup suppresses the ambient noise during calls. Furthermore, these earbuds also offer active noise cancellation of up to 25dB along with Transparency Mode.
