OnePlus launches Nord Buds 3r in India with 54-hour battery life: Price, features, and more

OnePlus Nord Buds 3r

OnePlus has expanded its audio lineup in India with the launch of the OnePlus Nord Buds 3r, its new entry-level true wireless earbuds. Priced at Rs 1,799, the earbuds will be available from September 8 across OnePlus’ online and offline channels, including Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, Croma, Reliance Digital, and Vijay Sales. As part of the launch, they will retail at a special price of Rs 1,599.

The standout feature of the Nord Buds 3r is its battery life. OnePlus claims a 54 hours of playtime on a single charge — the longest yet on its TWS range. Certified by TÜV Rheinland for battery health, the buds are designed to maintain consistent performance even after 1,000 charge cycles. With IP55 dust and water resistance, they are built to withstand workouts and outdoor use.

On the audio front, the earbuds are equipped with 12.4mm titanium-coated dynamic drivers for powerful bass and crisp sound. Users can choose from pre-set EQ modes or fine-tune via a 6-band equaliser. Select OnePlus smartphones will also support 3D Audio for a spatial sound experience. For calls, dual microphones with AI noise cancellation and anti-wind technology ensure clear conversations.

The Nord Buds 3r also brings a surprising range of smart features to the budget TWS segment. These include low-latency 47ms game mode, dual-device connection, Google Fast Pair, and a voice assistant shortcut. OnePlus has added extra functions such as AI Translation, Tap 2 Take photos, Aqua Touch controls, and Find My Earbuds, making them more versatile than typical entry-level earbuds.
