The OnePlus Nord Buds 3 earbuds are coming, as their design just surfaced
As you can see in the provided image, these earbuds will come with an oval-shaped case. Both the case and the earbuds will be made out of plastic. There is a rather noticeable OnePlus logo imprinted on this case.
The previous OnePlus Buds had a rather boxy case, so this is a considerable change. This design will be preferred by most people, though, there is a reason why most companies use more rounded cases for earbuds.
The charging case will have a two-tone design
You will notice that the lid on the charging case is glossy, while the rest of the case has a matte finish. We’d prefer the whole thing to be matte, but OnePlus wanted to add a bit of flare here.
The earbuds themselves will feature a new design too, they’re also moving away from a boxy design. They are rounded, and the stem almost has a teardrop shape. The bottom part is wider than the top part.
You will notice that silicone tips are used here, and you will have several sizes to choose from. The case includes a Type-C port at the bottom, while the specs got leaked a couple of months ago too… as they were shared by the same source.
The earbuds themselves will offer an IP55 rating, and Bluetooth 5.3 support
The OnePlus Buds 3 will feature a 10.4mm woofer, and a 6mm tweeter. 48dB Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) will be on offer too, while they will be IP55-rated for water and dust resistance. The case itself will be IPX4-rated.
These earbuds will offer Bluetooth 5.3 support, and will be able to connect to two devices at the same time. Google Fast Pair will be supported too. You can expect them to deliver 9 hours of battery life with ANC turned off. A combined battery life with the case is expected to be 33 hours. Fast charging will be supported too, but no wireless charging.
We still don’t know when will these earbuds launch. The OnePlus Buds 2 arrived in April this year, so we’re likely months away from the launch of the Buds 3. They could arrive in late Q1, or early Q2.
