Design and Build: Dual Drivers and Sleek Colors
The OnePlus Buds 4 come in two colors Zen Green and Storm Grey. The earbuds have a sophisticated look and contain a potent dual-driver setup. This comprises an 11mm woofer with a 30-layer ceramic-metal diaphragm and a 6mm flat-diaphragm tweeter for even and immersive sound. The design is ergonomic and long-lasting, ideal for all-day wear with IP55 water resistance protection.
Sound Quality: Hi-Res Audio and Dual DACs
Packed with two DACs for exact frequency separation, the Buds 4 boast a broad frequency range from 15Hz to 40kHz. They are Hi-Res Audio and LHDC 5.0 codec compatible at up to 1Mbps and 24-bit/192kHz resolution. The features guarantee audiophile-grade output and are suitable for both leisure listening and enthusiasts in search of high-fidelity sound.
Advanced Noise Cancellation and AI Calling
The most impressive feature of the Buds 4 is the adaptive noise cancellation, which blocks out to 55dB of background noise over a 5,500Hz bandwidth. That’s OnePlus’s best ANC yet. A clever Adaptive Mode switches automatically between ANC and transparency modes depending on the surroundings. During calls, the triple-mic system employs an AI Clear Call algorithm to enhance voice quality even in noisy environments.
Touch Controls and Exclusive AI Features
OnePlus has introduced an AI Translation feature that offers real-time voice translation through a triple-tap gesture. This function, however, is exclusive to only some OnePlus phones. Other notable features include 3D Audio, Golden Sound personalization, Sound Master EQ presets, and BassWave 2.0 for deep bass notes. The earbuds also offer seamless touch controls for volume, play, and noise control.
Connectivity, Gaming, and Battery Life
Supporting Google Fast Pair and Bluetooth 5.4, the Buds 4 support dual connectivity to two devices at once. Gamers will love the ultra-low 47ms latency mode. The earbuds deliver up to 45 hours of combined battery life with ANC disabled and up to around 37 hours with ANC enabled. A 10-minute charge delivers up to 11 hours of playback, perfect for users on the move.
Pricing and Availability
The OnePlus Buds 4 will go on sale from July 9 at noon IST. They can be purchased through Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, OnePlus.in, and offline stores such as Croma, Reliance Digital, and OnePlus Experience Stores. The Buds 4 are priced at Rs. 5,999 and pack an impressive feature set for the asking price.
