LG is making it easier than ever to find a pair of earbuds that truly fit your life. Building on the success of the original XBOOM Buds, the company is expanding its lineup with two new models: the premium Buds Plus and the streamlined Buds Lite. With a focus on high-quality sound, long-lasting battery life, and ergonomic comfort, the XBOOM Buds family now has a perfect pair for everyone, from the on-the-go audiophile to the casual listener.
A Shared Foundation of Sound
All LG XBOOM Buds are tuned by the multi-platinum artist and tech pioneer will.i.am. This collaboration ensures that every model delivers a vibrant and immersive listening experience with crystal-clear audio and rich, detailed sound. At the heart of this sound quality are lightweight graphene drivers, which are engineered to minimize distortion and provide superior audio for both music and calls.
The entire lineup also shares a host of other fantastic features:
- Active Noise Cancellation (ANC): Intelligent ANC technology detects and reduces background noise, allowing you to focus on your music or calls.
- Seamless Connectivity: Bluetooth 5.4 ensures a stable connection, and features like Google Fast Pair and Microsoft Swift Pairing make it incredibly easy to connect to your devices.
- Extended Battery Life: The original XBOOM Buds and the new Buds Plus offer up to 10 hours of playback on a single charge and 30 hours with the charging case. The Buds Lite take it a step further with up to 11.5 hours of playback and a total of 35 hours with the case.
- IPX4 Water Resistance: Don’t let a little rain or sweat stop the music. The IPX4 rating means your earbuds can handle splashes and moisture, perfect for workouts or a walk in the city.
XBOOM Buds Plus: The Premium Experience
For those who demand the best, the XBOOM Buds Plus are packed with advanced features designed for an elevated listening experience. The standout feature is Adaptive EQ, which automatically adjusts the sound profile in real time to compensate for changes in how the earbuds are worn, ensuring consistently rich and balanced audio.
The Buds Plus also feature a three-microphone system for enhanced ANC and superior call clarity, making them ideal for noisy environments. Additionally, the charging case includes LG’s innovative UVnano technology, which uses UV light to eliminate 99.9% of bacteria from the ear gels and speaker mesh while charging. For added convenience, the case supports wireless charging and a “Plug & Wireless” feature that turns it into a Bluetooth transmitter for non-Bluetooth devices, like in-flight entertainment systems.
XBOOM Buds Lite: Essential Audio for Everyday Adventures
The XBOOM Buds Lite are the perfect choice for users who value simplicity without compromising on quality. They offer the same high-quality audio experience as the rest of the lineup, but with a streamlined set of features. The Buds Lite come with a “Mild ANC” and four customizable EQ modes, allowing you to personalize your sound profile to match your preferences. With their lightweight, ergonomic design and exceptional battery life, they are built to keep up with your long commutes and all-day listening sessions.
Whether you’re a commuter who needs powerful noise cancellation, an audiophile who craves adaptive sound, or someone who simply wants a reliable pair of earbuds for all-day use, the expanded LG XBOOM Buds lineup has a solution for you. The Buds Plus and Buds Lite are expected to be available worldwide starting in September 2025. While specific pricing is yet to be announced, the original XBOOM Buds retailed for $109, giving us a good idea of the price point for the new models.
