Many of the earbuds’ specs were leaked prior to the official announcement, and just about all of them come in line with what was revealed during OnePlus’ launch event.
For example, the OnePlus Buds 3 are definitely packing dual drivers, the same technology inside the OnePlus Buds Pro. As expected, they include active noise cancelation (up to 49dB).
What’s interesting about the implementation of ANC is that the OnePlus Buds 3 come with an intelligent mode that can adjust the active noise cancelation levels depending on the environment.
According to OnePlus, the Buds 3 feature IP55 certification and a built-in 3-mic system that helps better adapt the ANC levels according to the environment. OnePlus also revealed that the earbuds pack a 58 mAh battery and come with charging case that features a much larger 520 mAh battery.
As far as design goes, the OnePlus Buds 3 weigh less than 10 grams together and feature a glossy finish. They are now available for pre-order in China in either Black or Blue for the equivalent of $65.
The OnePlus Buds 3 will most likely be launched globally, although a release date hasn’t been announced yet. We’re also expecting the price to be adjusted depending on the market, so they might not be as cheap as they’re in China.
