OnePlus Nord Buds 3r go on sale in India: Price, features, and more

OnePlus Nord Buds 3r

OnePlus has launched the Nord Buds 3r in India, expanding its Nord audio range with a new entry-level TWS offering. The standout feature is battery life. With a claimed 54 hours of total playtime, the Nord Buds 3r outlast many rivals. TÜV Rheinland certification ensures consistent performance even after 1,000 charge cycles, while the IP55 rating makes them fit for workouts and everyday rough use.

OnePlus Nord Buds 3r: Price and availability

Available from September 8, the earbuds are priced at Rs 1,799, but early buyers can grab them for Rs 1,599 — and even as low as Rs 1,499 with select bank discounts.

The Nord Buds 3r are available in Aura Blue and Ash Black across online and offline retailers, including OnePlus’ own channels, Amazon, Flipkart, and Croma.

On the audio front, the earbuds pack 12.4mm titanium-coated dynamic drivers for strong bass and clear highs. OnePlus’ Sound Master EQ lets users choose from three presets or tweak the sound manually with a 6-band equalizer. For supported devices, OnePlus 3D Audio creates a surround-sound style experience, while dual microphones with AI noise cancellation improve call clarity.

Connectivity features are equally strong. Bluetooth 5.4 ensures stable connections, while Google Fast Pair simplifies setup on Android. Dual-device support makes switching between phone and laptop seamless, and a 47ms low-latency game mode will appeal to mobile gamers.

OnePlus has also added a handful of smart touches: AI Translation for real-time language help, Tap 2 Take for quick photo capture, Aqua Touch controls, and a “Find My Earbuds” tool.

At this price point, the Nord Buds 3r combine marathon battery life with a wide feature set, making them a compelling option for budget-conscious buyers looking beyond the basics.
