OnePlus Buds 4 launched, here is everything you need to know about them

India Today27-05-2025
OnePlus has officially unveiled its latest wireless earbuds — the Buds 4 — in China. These new earbuds bring several improvements over the previous generation, including improved noise cancellation, better audio performance, and some smart AI-powered features. The highlight is the 55 dB hybrid active noise cancellation, which now covers a wider frequency range of up to 5.5 kHz. This means the earbuds are designed to block out more environmental noise, whether you're on a crowded street or working from a busy cafe. The design is also sleeker, and they come in two elegant colours: Pine Green and Space Grey, with a matte metallic finish that adds a premium touch. OnePlus is positioning the Buds 4 as an all-around upgrade, focusing on both sound and smart features, while keeping the price relatively affordable.advertisementThe OnePlus Buds 4 are available in two colours: green and black. The price is set at CNY 449 in China (roughly Rs 5,300). Students can buy them for a discounted price of CNY 419 (Rs 4,950). The earbuds will go on sale from May 27 in China. There's no official word yet on a global launch, but OnePlus might release the Buds 4 in other markets — including India — alongside the upcoming OnePlus 13s.The OnePlus Buds 4 come with a triple-microphone setup, supported by AI-based call noise reduction. This tech aims to make your voice clearer during calls, even if you're in a noisy place. The audio system has also been upgraded — it still uses a coaxial dual-driver setup like the last-gen Buds 3, but now OnePlus has added dual DACs. This should help with richer bass, more detailed treble, and overall better clarity in sound reproduction.advertisement
Another new feature is what OnePlus calls the Golden Sound profile. This customises the audio output based on how the earbuds fit in your ears, so you get a more personalised listening experience. On top of that, there are two AI-powered translation tools. One is for real-time voice translation, ideal for travel or language learning, and the other is a face-to-face translator that works via a paired app.In the meantime, the OnePlus Buds 3 continues to be a solid option in India. Priced at Rs 5,499, these earbuds punch above their weight with dual dynamic drivers, Hi-Res Audio support, and a comfortable fit that works well for long listening sessions. They also come with decent noise cancellation and great battery life, lasting up to 44 hours with the case. If you're looking for a reliable pair of earbuds right now, the Buds 3 still hold their ground — but it might be worth waiting just a little longer if you're curious about what the Buds 4 bring to the table.
