Not long ago, the price of the cheap OnePlus Buds 3 dropped to the best price on Amazon. This deal allowed buyers to save $20 on the Splendid Blue pair. Today, we see the same budget wireless earbuds at a completely new record price on the official store!
That's right! The OnePlus store has slashed the price of the earbuds by a whopping 30%, something we've never seen before. The discount is valid for the Splendid Blue finish and the Metallic Gray variant. But wait, there's more! You won't find a suitable deal on Amazon, and Best Buy and Walmart don't even have the Buds 3 in stock. Regularly priced at $99.99, these in-ear headphones undoubtedly can't hold a candle to the AirPods Pro 2 or the Sony WF-1000XM4. However, they offer good value for money in their respectable price range. Let's see why.
Firstly, the OnePlus earbuds are extremely comfortable. They are lightweight and don't pinch, so you can wear them for longer. They also have an IP55 rating, so you can use them at the gym or while jogging.
When it comes to ANC, these beauties do a respectable, but certainly not jaw-dropping, job. The noise cancellation will reduce low tones to some extent, but you'll probably still hear high tones. It gets significantly better when playing music, but it's still not ideal. In other words, if you're looking for impressive noise cancellation, you should probably look elsewhere.
What about the sound quality? Well, it's pretty good for the price. They offer rich bass and a wide soundstage with the 3D audio feature turned on. There's also the Golden Sound feature that fine-tunes the sound to your ears after a quick test. You can access it through the HeyMelody app.
Additional benefits like Bluetooth Multipoint make these headphones an even better choice at their current price. Additionally, the earbuds with ANC offer up to six and a half hours of playtime per charge. With the charging case, you get an additional 21.5 hours of use.
Ultimately, the OnePlus Buds 3 definitely can't compete with more high-end options. But if you can only spend $69.99 and don't really need cutting-edge ANC, the OnePlus Buds 3 may be a good fit for you. Get your copy with 30% off from the official store while the offer lasts!
