OnePlus Nord Buds 3 True Wireless Stereo (TWS) Earphones

The OnePlus Nord Buds 3 come with a traditional in-ear design, similar to the Pro variant. They offer a comfortable fit even when worn for longer periods of time on a stretch.  The touch controls are placed towards the narrower stem top, while the thicker bottom helps grip the earphones better during adjustments.

These TWS earphones offer up to 32dB of active noise cancellation (ANC) which have three modes — on, off, and transparency. The earphones carry dual mic units and support dual device connectivity.

Like the Pro option, the Nord Buds 3 offer a bass-heavy sound experience. The focus on bass takes away from the details of a track. With the six-band customisable equalisation settings, the higher frequency sounds can be less muddied.

The pebble-shaped charging case has a USB type-C port and a pairing button at the bottom. These earphones are claimed to offer a total battery life of up to 43 hours on a single charge without ANC. With the ANC feature on, the total playback time of these earphones is said to fall to up to 28 hours.
