OnePlus - Buds Pro 3

OnePlus Buds Pro 3 stand out for their impressive sound quality and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) features. With a well-balanced audio profile, these earbuds deliver deep bass and clear treble, making them an excellent choice for music lovers. They also come with multiple ear tip sizes for a comfortable fit during long listening sessions.

Owned numerous earbuds in the past sony, marshall, jabra, Huawei, Samsung, airpods, lg, soundcore, you name it, etc. and being my priority is the best for music listening session. I stopped buying earbuds when I got the OnePlus buds pro 3. Not the best anc and just decent transparency but man, audio quality wise, it is the best for me. Been to audiophile hobby for years now (not an expert though) but the OnePlus pro 3 so far is on the top of my list for earbuds.

I see. I suggest try it if you can especially if you have a oneplus phone so you can maximize the lhdc feature. It really sounds awesome.

Happy with my OP 3pro. But that's me.

Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are currently the *overall* best for my needs. There are certainly many TWS buds out there that could be better than these for someone else. Once I got these dialed in with the Diofit tips the sound is badass. Transparency Mode is so good I've never had buds that sound so nice even with transparency on. And the biggest item - for me - Call Quality blows away anything else I've ever used. The lack of true Multipoint is wild and puts me in a position where I'll happily replace these *only if* something else can do just as good for phone calls - and I think that will be tough to find. Other buds I've used that I still highly recommend: - Soundcore Liberty 4 (not the NC and not the Pro) - fantastic overall option. Great battery life, Multipoint, great phone call quality - Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro - especially now with renewed/refurbished options for ~$99 these are an absolute winner in my opinion. No Multipoint, sadly. Great fit, great sound, and pretty good for calls. - OnePlus Buds Pro 3 - really nice package. Great sound, great battery life, Multipoint, and very good call quality. Odd quirk that the wireless charging is on the front, so you have to flip them over for it to work. Haven't tested yet but very interested to: Sony Linkbuds Fit - they have many of the same components as the XM5, have the no-stem look that I prefer, include true Multipoint, should have good call quality, but so frustrating that there is no wireless charging!

A good number on this sub liked both the One Plus Buds 3 or One Plus Buds 3 Pro (Pro has enhanced sound quality so worth a bit extra) as well as Nothing (a).

It seems from people on this sub Earfun Air Pro 4, Soundcore Liberty NC, One Plus Buds 3 or One Plus Buds 3 Pro. These all seem really good. It sounds like the One Plus Buds 3 Pro has the best sound, but these all are very good.

yes go with the oneplus

Good to hear, cause I have some on the way!

I'm so curious about folk here reporting that they hurt their ears. How do these hurt the ears? I've been using the Sony MX4s and they're great earphones but I find them uncomfortable for a long period. The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 just rest on the ear canal.

Just take the OnePlus pro 3

One plus buds 3 pro are amazing and have multipoint connection

I never tried the 2r as they're not sold in my country, but I read they are similar minus the head tracking in spatial audio. I have the pro 3's now, and they are very good.

Odd. With custom audio test in the app, it makes it much better then stock. Then I have android and I use wavelet to eq even more and it's pretty nice. AZ80 needs less tweaks but more expensive. Not much touches these two in terms of sound in terms of the price beyond maybe OnePlus 3 pro, the earfun air pro 4. Sony's, bowers and Wilkins, Jabra, and status are some others that are competitive. Good luck!

Just came in to say, people are sleeping on the Oneplus Buds Pro 3. Especially for $159 - they’re fantastic.

Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2 are my favorite daily drivers when I consider comfort, pocketability, ANC, controls, durability, style, battery life, etc. They sound great but there are other earbuds that have a more premium sound. Sennheiser MTW4 are great daily drivers with a more premium sound. OnePlus Buds *Pro* 3 are great daily drivers at a lower price. My favorite control scheme of any earbuds, and quite good sound and features for the price. I have been trying the EarFun Air Pro 4 for a few days now and while they'll never replace my more premium earbuds, I think they'd make excellent daily drivers for under $100. I got them for like $60 with coupon codes. In LDAC mode with a high res streaming service, they sound far better than a sub-$100 earbud should.

Overall I still prefer the Jabras, but OnePlus is a contender for new daily driver when Jabra is no more. The pinch controls and swipe volume controls are great. I don't have an LHDC device so I haven't heard the OnePlus at their best, but they sound very good even in AAC.

I don't have much experience with the Liberty 4NC. I bought them maybe a year ago and returned them soon after because I wasn't super impressed with the sound. So I never compared them directly to the OnePlus... *but* I didn't return the OnePlus and they're one of my favorites now, so I think it's fair to say I'd recommend them over the Liberty.

I can vouch for the OnePlus buds, safe pick!

I have the OnePlus Buds and they are good. I also have the Anker Soundcore Life P3i earbuds and I like them too

This^ I just went down this rabbit hole and everyone's opinions online varied wildly from my own in person experiences. I ended up keeping Galaxy Buds 3 Pro (pixel phone). I tried Pixel Buds Pro 2, JBL Tour Pro 3, OnePlus Buds Pro 3, and Nothing Pro (2024).

Currently experiencing this now. This month, I’ve tried - EAH-AZ100, Sony XM5, Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2, Jabra Elite 8 Gen 2, Pixel Buds Pro 2, OnePlus Buds Pro 3, Nothing Buds. I could not agree more. I’m currently testing the EAH-AZ100s against the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 and Nothing Buds, and was going to make a post about it myself. I’m not sure what to think. The hype and price almost ‘ruin’ the AZ100’s. They’re just nowhere near as mind blowing as people make out, especially when you compare them to buds 1/2 or 1/3 of the price. As you said, If you put a gun to my head and asked me to pick, yes, I’d probably say the EAH-AZ100s are probably ‘best’ for the average person, but do I think they’re always the most enjoyable or best, absolutely not. I’d honestly say if I listened to 10 songs, maybe 4 of them sound best on the EAZ-AZ100s, 4 on the OnePlus Buds Pro 3, and 2 on the Nothings, and the difference between the Nothing Buds having 2 points and 4, is as you said, literally, literally like 5%. I found it very hard to decide between buds, it was one of the reasons I ended up testing so many. Similarly, I thought the XM5’s were literally the worst of all the ones I mentioned above, despite being near the top in their perceived premium’ness’. I genuinely would pick the Nothing Buds 10/10 times over them. That said, I am hoping to learn how to get more out of these EAZ-AZ100’s with the EQ, I’ve tried playing around with them but not really hearing this ‘mind blowing’ ‘blow your head off’ ‘rip your head in half’ quality tbh.

One plus buds pro 3 Hate the name , love the product.

I haven't but have been intrigued to try them! I've heard good things. I have no hesitation paying for them but my One plus buds pro 3 have been good enough for me to not feel the need to get buds 2x or 3x the price.

I got my one plus for about 120us on sale through their store. Nothing's look like 150. So yeah pretty comparable to europe

Just open game mode, it's gonna lower the latency, I use it to play pubg with no problems. I used the brainwave with level 2 boost, Hi Re, LHDC. Suppose buds 3 pro are much much better than the nord 3 so i don't really suggest using that. Im planning to buy the buds 3 pro rn but😬😬 feels like it won't change that much compared to mine rn

I got the Denon Perl Pro on Black Friday deal, man, it is worth every penny. I am experiencing music like I had never experienced before. I am not an audiophile,  but I enjoy good music. I currently have the AZ 60, 1More Evo, and OnePlus Buds 3 Pro which I bought simultaneously with the DPP. My intention was to try both and return one of them, but I am stuck with both. The two are fantastic pairs of earbuds. The DPP is great for sound, but the OnePlus isn't a slouch neither. I use the Buds 3 Pro at work and DPP at home.  The Buds 3 Pro is incredibly light weight with a seducing case. I sometimes forget they are in my ears. The only downside to the DPP is the weight. They can feel heavy and a bit fatiguing in the ears but they are a bitter sweet, sweet that pill I am happy to swallow. As for other aesthetics, here are my experience  - The design is unique. You either like it or hate it but I like their imposing nature. I would like to have on in flight and make people stear at me - Battery 🔋 is fine - ANC is good. It is good enough for me. I don't buy earbuds because of the ANC. I never liked being completely locked away from my environment. I am not looking for a Bose Ultra Comfort serenity - Transparency is 6/10. The Buds 3 Pro has a better transparency in my experience so far - Fit, I swithed to the in ear wing tips and I have used them in the gym twices and they stayed on my ears.  Finally, I am keeping my DPP for the long haul. They rock misic like a headphone. I am also keeping my Buds 3 Pro for different reasons. They are both exceptionally good. 

For any Android: Oneplus Buds Pro 3 For Samsung: Galaxy Buds3 Pro For iOS: Airpods Pro 2nd Gen

I don't really like OP buds. Ironically the best ones I've used are Pixel pro. I can walk around and talk with them and hear everything.

They don't sound the best. Mostly a bassy tuning and the soundstage isn't as wide as I would like. If you want battery life, elite sound quality, ANC, and call quality I would recommend getting the OnePlus buds 3 pro

Mic is not awful, I have used it for calls, but I prefer Oneplus Buds 3 Pro for calls.

Bose ultra? The OnePlus buds pro 3 are terrible. I get the pain in the ear also. The anc is awful and even with off set, it still makes terrible noise. Terrible hardware which they are trying to disguise with fancy firmware. I feel like it's creating pressure or a standing wave within the ear. It wouldn't surprise me if these are making people lose their hearing

Oneplus buds 3 pro has one of the best bass I've heard. That said, they also have a very spicy high end so unless you EQ it well, it can be fatiguing for some (me 😅)

Honestly OnePlus makes a real good earbud with dual device seamless integration. Great for work as well. I have the OnePlus buds 3 pro. Great buds.

Anker Soundcore Space A40 are amazing for the price, I also got the Liberty 4 ANC which are a notch above. I also have a pair of OnePlus pro which are more than twice the price and while the build quality seems a lot better, the sound and ANC is not twice as good. I'm glad I have them and tried them, but I will probably never pay above 100$ for a pair of earbuds again as they are basically garbage once the battery life is gone.

1st where are you gonna use them, with you phone? Most possible, yes. Then check the compatibility of you phone with the audio codecs, and get some ear buds with those audio codecs available (SBC and AAC are the most common and every phone and earbuds accept that codecs). So depending if your phone accept I don't know APTX HD, without a doubt get a pair with that compatibility. LDAC, LHDC, APTX or APTX HD. Are a few of the codecs with the best audio quality, based on that check which one are the best for you. If you have an iPhone get airpods, if you have a Samsung get some Galaxy buds, if you have a OnePlus, get OnePlus buds, usually the same brand gives some advantages using them between them, the phone and the earbuds. But if your phone support Hi-RES codecs then look for some that are better on that aspect. Hope to be helpful.

The Nothings, Status Between 3ANC. I’m pretty impressed with the Soundpeats Capsule Pro+, OnePlus Buds 3 Pro and the Creative Aurvana Ace also. I’m just talking sound quality not other features. The less expensive tier seems to be catching up pretty quickly.

Right now I’m giving the AZ80 a second chance and switching back between those and the Soundpeats Capsule Pro+ and the OnePlus Buds 3 Pro. I think both of those are holding their own depending on what song is playing.

Id go one plus buds pro 3 or nothing ear 2024, for clean bass, momentum tw4 or technics az-100

I own/have owned about a dozen mid to high end TWS buds over the last 4-5ish years. Here's my list: - Nothing Ear (2024) - OnePlus Buds Pro 3 - Denon PerL Pro - Devialet Gemini 2 - Sennheiser Momentum TW 4 - Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro (old but gold)

The Comfortability of one plus buds is another level. Even apple can't match it. Sometimes, i even forgot that they are in my ears.

recently switched from galaxy buds+ to oneplus buds 3 pro. Difference is negligible in sound quality but features on the oneplus are so much better.
