OnePlus has officially launched its latest addition to the Nord series of truly wireless earbuds, the OnePlus Nord Buds 3 in India, as promised. The earbuds feature up to 32dB of Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), Bluetooth 5.4, Dual Connection, Google Fast Pair, and 12.4mm titanium dynamic drivers powered by the BassWave 2.0 Enhancement algorithm and master EQ.
The earphones come in a pebble-shaped vertical case, with a glossy finish for the white version and a matte finish with subtle metallic accents for the black. They also support touch controls and are rated IP55 for water and sweat resistance.
According to OnePlus, the Nord Buds 3 have undergone rigorous testing, including exposure to extreme temperatures of 55℃, 20,000 case hinge folds, and drops from 1.5 meters for the charging case and 1.8 meters for the earbuds, ensuring durable performance in most conditions. Each earbud weighs just 4.2g, offering a lightweight and comfortable fit. Users can choose from three sizes of silicone earplugs (large, medium, and small) for a custom fit.
The Nord Buds 3 promise up to 43 hours of total playback on a full charge and up to 12 hours of standalone playback without ANC. They also feature Flash Charge technology, providing 11 hours of listening time (with the case and without ANC) from just a 10-minute charge.
Additionally, OnePlus claims that the Nord Buds 3 are the world’s first TWS earbuds to receive TÜV Rheinland Battery Health certification, guaranteeing that the battery retains at least 80% of its capacity after 1,000 charge cycles.
