By integrating features like dual-mode noise cancellation and low-latency support, BOULT aims to target an audience of gamers looking for high-performance audio.
'The FluidX series is a testament to the many conversations we've had with our users, coming alive in one powerful series,' said Varun Gupta, Co-Founder and CEO at BOULT. 'We've built something that doesn't just adapt to lifestyles, but powers them.'
Fluid X Pro is priced at Rs 7,999 across all platform and Fluid X at Rs 5,999. Both headphones are now available for purchase via Amazon, Flipkart, and Myntra.
