Honest Boat Reviews
Main Post:
I'm wondering if there are any sites out there that collect user or otherwise "honest" boat reviews. Not that the reviews you find on the big sites are dishonest, but rather they feel like if they are not completely in the tank for the manufacturer, they feel aimed at avoiding any actual negative comments about boat design, features, etc.
Top Comment: It’s tough looking at boats without someone giving you “the sales pitch”. There’s negatives about every boat, but you’re usually left to discover them on your own through experience. Always sea-trial and get an independent survey before buying.

Unpopular opinion about "BOAT " as a brand
Main Post:
So according to me and my past experiences with BOAT products, I don't think boat sells bad products
I brought rockerz 255 pro , and trust me it's been almost more than a year and they are working perfectly alright , the charging speed and everything is perfect . ( Though by saying this , I don't mean that there are not other better products in the Market)
I found people in this sub speaking and saying, why Aman has all this attitude kudh ka business drop shipping hai and judging others business , people also said : what he does ? Chinese product pe brand name laga deta hai and etc etc
To all these people I would like to clarify that BoAT since 2023 started it's manufacturing in India , and approximately 70% of the products of BOAT are made in India now and they are working on making it a whole Indian business line , the beginning may be with a support of the neighbouring countries but I think that was a very good strategic move since it eliminated or has limited the intervention of the Chinese product in such a market
And people should not forget that he has cracked D2C and know the route to create a brand , because putting label on a Chinese product can be done by anyone, but to make it a success you need to have analytical knowledge and intelligence
His attitude and non required behaviour should definitely be a thing worth pointing out , but don't disgrace someone's effort and knowledge

Boat is scamming people in broad daylight and no one's doing anything about it.
Main Post:
For context, I'm a 17yo. If I was somewhat older, I'd def file a complaint in consumer court. My 4.5k boat headphones developed a major crack in the headband within a year. And apparently the warranty doesn't cover that since it's "physically damaged".
I checked the reviews and a bunch of other people had the exact same issue. And boat isn't doing shit to improve it.
If someone's planning to buy smt from boat, just don't.
Imagine u spend 4.5k on smt and it doesn't even last a year. And for some reason they won't replace it or even repair it lmao. If u check out comments on boat's Instagram or even Aman's insta, they're filled with comments mentioning these issues. There's no way this scammer brand's co-founder is an official "Shark" in Shark Tank India. And apparently X removes your account if u post smt about this issue tagging Aman lmao. I tried contacting their Instagram, but all the service people do is apologize and give excuses while their company scams people
Edit: I got this set(751 anc) as a gift. I didn't pick boat myself lmao
This isn't even the whole lore. The whole lore is somewhat worse
Top Comment: Imagine having 4.5k and still spending it on boat. Dude you had so many better options. Boat is for the budget of 1k less. Nothing more than 1k is worth to spend on boat.
Boat tws rant
Main Post:
I purchased a Boat airdopes 141 Bluetooth earbuds on end of March 2024. It worked for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, the right earbud stopped charging. I applied for warranty claim. They took 10 days for the service and rejected my claim on the ground that everything is working fine. It wasn't working fine and they returned the same faulty product. I sent out an email to which they responded that my concern will be addressed so I applied for another warranty claim. They took another 12 days to service the product and rejected my warranty claim on the same grounds that "everything works fine according to our parameters". Now I am left with a faulty product which they clearly won't provide service for and 1300 Rupees down the drain. P.S. The tws didn't incur any physical or liquid damage as of yet so everything should be covered under warranty.
I mailed customer care multiple times along with all the proof but still they refuse to acknowledge selling or servicing a faulty product. This is absolute fraudulent behaviour from a reputed company where they milk out hard earned money from middle class people by selling refurbished and re-packaged cheap china products.
I would highly suggest you guys stop using products from this garbage company and the likes of it (yk there are a lot) and buy only from reputed brands like Realme, Oppo, OnePlus etc. I had to spend another 2000 Rupees on a Realme buds because I need a functional pair.

Boat Is Scam
Main Post:
So on November 8 , I thought of buying any good earbuds and i saw one review saying boat 280 ANC is good , so bought it from their website at 1400 Rs , I am 19 year old and i bought from saving i had from last 4 month of 3000 rupees and today it got delivered at 6 PM . I opened it and started using it after 30 minutes of watching youtube my left ear started hurting so i removed it played it with my old earbuds and it was all fine and then again after 30 minutes i used and it started hurting again and its sound is even worse than my old earbuds . So i thought let’s return it , it is not good and then i realised boat doesn’t have any return/refund thing. I am writing this with tears in my eyes . It feels like i wasted 1.5k rs hard earned money of my father because of my stupidity of choosing boat . If anyone knows that i can get refund or even return and get any other boat model please help me . Please
