OnePlus has released several pairs of earbuds over the years, including the OnePlus Buds from a year ago and the cheaper OnePlus Buds Z from last November. Recently, the news of the development of other headsets was leaked, but now OnePlus has confirmed the release of a new audio product along with the OnePlus Nord 2 on July 22.
Confirmation comes from a new forum post “The Lab“, the limited product review program that OnePlus uses to receive feedback. The company stated in the forum post:
“Are you excited about the upcoming launch of the OnePlus Nord 2 5G? I bet you didn't know that the new top of the range of the Nord series would be accompanied by the Buds Pro yet to be announced! Do you want to test them both? Well, you may have to wait less than expected. The Lab is back and after our latest edition this time we include two products: OnePlus Nord 2 5G and Buds Pro. “
Unfortunately, they have not been revealed details on the OnePlus Buds Pro in addition to the name. Perhaps they could pick up some features of the AirPods Pro, such as active noise cancellation (ANC) and a transparency mode, both of which are not available on the current OnePlus Buds and Buds Z.
