Operating Instructions
Touch Controls
The realme Buds T500 Pro utilize touch controls for various functions. Please refer to the full user manual (PDF) for a detailed diagram and customization options via the realme Link app.
- Play/Pause: Single tap on either earbud.

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)
The earbuds feature 50dB Smart Noise Cancellation to reduce ambient noise. Cycle through ANC modes (ANC On, Transparency, ANC Off) using the touch controls. Transparency mode allows you to hear your surroundings while listening to audio.
Voice Assistant
Activate your device's voice assistant (e.g., Google Assistant, Siri) with a triple tap on either earbud.
Dust and Water Resistance (IP55)
The earbuds are rated IP55 for dust and water resistance, meaning they are protected against limited dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction. This makes them suitable for workouts and light rain. Do not submerge the earbuds in water or expose them to heavy rain.
Maintenance
Cleaning
- Regularly clean the earbuds and charging case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
- Remove ear tips and clean them with water and mild soap if necessary, ensuring they are completely dry before reattaching.
- Use a cotton swab or small brush to gently clean the charging contacts on both the earbuds and the case.
Battery Care
- Avoid exposing the earbuds and charging case to extreme temperatures.
- Store the earbuds in their charging case when not in use to protect them and keep them charged.
- For long-term storage, ensure the battery is partially charged (around 50%) to prolong battery life.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your realme Buds T500 Pro, try the following steps:
- Earbuds not pairing: Ensure both earbuds are in the charging case, the case is open, and they are charged. Try resetting the earbuds (refer to the PDF manual for specific reset instructions).
- No sound from one earbud: Place both earbuds back in the case, close it, then open it again. Re-pair with your device.
- Poor sound quality: Ensure ear tips provide a good seal. Clean any debris from the earbud nozzles.
- Charging issues: Check the Type-C cable and charging port for damage. Ensure the charging contacts on the earbuds and case are clean.
- Voice assistant not responding: Ensure your device's voice assistant is enabled and the earbuds are properly connected.
