Boat Nirvana Crown Review: Is This the Most Innovative TWS Under ₹3000?

Boat continues to experiment with form and function, and the Nirvana Crown stands out as one of its most unconventional true wireless earbuds. This is not just another TWS focused solely on earbuds—the real innovation lies in the charging case itself.

The charging case, branded as Sonic Arc (Advanced Rotating Crown), introduces a rotating crown mechanism with haptic feedback, allowing direct control over multiple functions. Volume can be increased or decreased simply by rotating the crown, and the tactile vibration confirms every adjustment—even when the case is inside a pocket.

The earbuds sit securely in the ear and maintain stability during movement, reducing the risk of accidental drops.

One of the most practical additions is the LED-based battery indication system built into the case. Unlike traditional TWS cases that leave battery status unclear, the Nirvana Crown provides clear visual feedback. The LED lighting is fully customizable, allowing different colours for charging status, incoming calls, lock/unlock states, and more. This design has been patented by Boat, making it a unique offering in its segment.

The crown and controls can be locked to prevent accidental inputs. A simple multi-press mechanism disables all functions when required. The central button on the case is multifunctional, handling play/pause, call management, and voice assistant activation.

Through the Hearables App 2.0, functionality expands significantly. The app enables track control, sound customisation, firmware updates, diagnostics, and advanced settings. One standout feature is Camera Click, which allows the case to act as a remote shutter button on compatible smartphones—eliminating the need for timers or repeated positioning.

Sound performance is balanced with a mild bass emphasis. The 10mm drivers deliver clear vocals and controlled low frequencies without overpowering the mids. Extensive EQ presets and manual tuning options are available through the app.

The earbuds support 50dB Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation, powered by a six-microphone system that effectively suppresses ambient noise in environments like trains or aircraft cabins. For awareness, an Ambient Mode is also included.

Additional features include:

• Multi-point connectivity
• In-ear detection
• 50ms low-latency Beast Mode for gaming
• IPX4 water resistance
• AI-ENX call noise reduction technology

Battery life is another strong point. With the case, total playback reaches up to 40 hours. Without ANC, the earbuds offer around 25 hours, while a single charge delivers approximately 4 hours of playback. Fast charging support provides up to 180 minutes of use with just 10 minutes of charging.

Call quality benefits from the six-microphone array, ensuring clear voice transmission even in noisy surroundings.

The Boat Nirvana Crown is priced at ₹2,799 and available in striking Blazing Red, refined Gunmetal Grey, and bold Sapphire Blue. The boAt Nirvana Crown launches at a special launch price of just INR 2,499 (first 7 days – following that 2,799/-) on Amazon, Flipkart, boat-lifestyle.com, and select retail stores near you. At this price point, it delivers a rare combination of distinctive design, extensive case-based controls, strong ANC performance, solid battery life, and deep software customisation.

For users seeking a TWS with a unique identity and functional innovation beyond standard earbuds, the Nirvana Crown stands out as a compelling option.
