OnePlus officially announces Pro noise cancelling earbuds

OnePlus has officially announced its Pro noise cancelling earbuds, "OnePlus Buds Pro" in an event that also included the launch of the company's budget Nord 2. After a couple of generations of wireless earbuds, OnePlus has finally set its sights on the AirPods Pro — and the rest of the premium market. 

The buds have a battery life of up to 10 hours (without noise cancelling) and 38 hours with the cover (ditto). The case may be charged wirelessly using third-party Qi pads, or the system can be charged for 10 hours in 10 minutes.

Adaptive noise cancellation, as a top-of-the-line feature of this product, uses a trio of onboard mics to filter out ambient sound up to 40 decibels. The technology, according to the business, outperforms more traditional active noise cancellation, which provides a fixed level of filtering. A pair of 11mm dynamic drivers power the buds, which also support Dolby Atmos.

Buds Pro will cost $150, putting them in line with the recently released Beats Studio Buds, as well as Google's Pixel Buds and Samsung's Galaxy Buds Pro.
