The verdict
With vastly improved features that compete with more expensive earbuds, the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 are a tantalizing, wallet-friendly alternative to more expensive brands. The sound quality, battery life, and feature set deliver excellent value, though design quirks and omitted premium features like conversational awareness prevent them from reaching the absolute top tier.
✓Liked: Battery life with up to 10 hours per charge without ANC and 43 hours total capacity, IP55 rating protecting against splashes, sweat, and dust, Comfortable fit for extended wear without ear fatigue, Spatial audio with head tracking for enhanced immersive experience
✕Could be better: Short charging cable in box with USB-A to USB-C design, No conversational awareness feature for automatic music pause during speech, Poorly placed volume slider on stem front makes adjustment difficult during activity, Middling transparency mode that adds little benefit over disabling it
