Introduction
In a major step forward for smart wearables in India, NxtQuantum Shift Technologies is reportedly gearing up to launch a revolutionary smartwatch under the AI+ brand. Dubbed the AI+ Wearbuds Watch 3, this smartwatch stands out by offering built-in True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earbuds integrated directly into the watch body — a feature rarely seen in mainstream devices.
AI+ Wearbuds Watch 3: What We Know So Far
According to a report from GSMArena, a leaked image of the retail box reveals key details about the device. The packaging is labeled “Smartband-Stored True Wireless Earbuds”, confirming that the earbuds will physically dock into the smartwatch itself. This makes it a two-in-one wearable designed for users who prefer carrying fewer gadgets.
Design and Features
Though the product image itself remains under wraps, the outline of the box suggests a compact form factor. The earbuds appear to feature silicone ear tips, likely to enable passive noise cancellation. It’s expected to provide essential fitness tracking, Bluetooth calling, and voice assistant features — bundled with audio on-the-go through its wearable TWS solution.
Made in India Smartwear
Like its smartphone counterparts, the AI+ Wearbuds Watch 3 is reportedly manufactured in India, aligning with the government’s Make in India initiative. This also points to potential aggressive pricing strategies to capture India’s rapidly growing wearable tech market.
AI+ Smartphone Lineup Also Incoming
The Wearbuds Watch 3 is part of a larger product rollout from AI+, a brand created by NxtQuantum Shift Technologies, led by industry veteran Madhav Sheth. Alongside the wearable, AI+ is expected to debut its smartphone lineup later this month, with three models in the works — Nova 2 5G, Nova 1 5G, and Pulse 1.
- Nova 1 5G is expected to retail at just ₹5,000
- Pulse 1 at ₹6,000
- Nova 2 5G’s price is yet to be confirmed
These smartphones are expected to be listed on Flipkart by the end of June, possibly alongside the Wearbuds Watch 3.
Competition in the Smartwatch-TWS Segment
AI+ is stepping into a niche but promising space. While companies like Huawei have explored similar smartwatch-TWS hybrids, these offerings have largely remained expensive and unavailable in India. AI+ appears to be taking a more democratized approach, aiming at affordability without compromising on innovation.
Launch Timeline & Availability
The AI+ Wearbuds Watch 3 is expected to launch in June 2025 and will be available via Flipkart, with availability through other online and offline retailers likely. With the leaked box already circulating, a formal announcement could be just days away.
What to Expect
- Built-in TWS earbuds with passive noise cancellation
- Smartband and smartwatch functions including health tracking
- Manufactured in India for cost efficiency
- Expected budget-friendly pricing under ₹5,000–₹6,000
Conclusion
The AI+ Wearbuds Watch 3 might be the beginning of a new category of affordable hybrid wearables in India. By integrating smartwatch and TWS functionalities into one device, AI+ is aiming to solve two user needs with one smart gadget. If priced right, it could quickly become a trendsetter for 2025.
