OnePlus is gearing up to launch its latest pair of true wireless earbuds, the OnePlus Buds 3. The new earbuds are expected to debut alongside the OnePlus 12 smartphone in January 2024. However, some details about the design and features of the OnePlus Buds 3 have already been leaked online by a reliable tipster.
A similar design as the Buds Pro 2
According to the leaked renders, the OnePlus Buds 3 will sport a similar design as the Buds Pro 2, which were launched in August 2023. The earbuds will have a dual-tone finish and silicone ear tips for a comfortable fit. Each earbud will weigh 4.77 grams and will be IP55 rated for water and dust resistance. The charging case will also have an IPX4 rating and a 520 mAh battery.
Dual drivers and ANC support
The OnePlus Buds 3 will feature dual drivers in each earbud, consisting of a 10.4mm woofer and a 6mm tweeter. This will provide a balanced and rich sound quality for different genres of music. The earbuds will also support Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) up to 48dB, thanks to three microphones on each bud. Users will be able to adjust the level of noise cancellation according to their preference and environment.
Bluetooth 5.3 and Google Fast Pair
The OnePlus Buds 3 will offer Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity, which will ensure a stable and low-latency connection with compatible devices. The earbuds will also support Google Fast Pair, which will allow users to quickly pair them with their Android phones or tablets. Additionally, the earbuds will support dual connection, which means they can be connected to two devices simultaneously.
Impressive battery life
The OnePlus Buds 3 are expected to deliver up to nine hours of battery life on a single charge with ANC turned off, and up to six hours with ANC turned on. The charging case will provide an additional 24 hours of battery life with ANC off, and an additional 16 hours with ANC on. This means users can enjoy up to 33 hours of total playback time with ANC off, and up to 22 hours with ANC on.
