OnePlus is gearing up to introduce the Buds Pro 3 in India on August 20. In the lead-up to the launch, the company has been steadily unveiling features of the earbuds. However, a recent premature listing on Flipkart has inadvertently disclosed the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 pricing just days before their official debut.
Pricing Details
Noted tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore shared a screenshot on X (formerly Twitter) showing that the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 will be priced at ₹13,999 in India. This marks a ₹2,000 increase compared to its predecessor, the OnePlus Buds Pro 2, which had a launch price of ₹11,999.
Design and Features
The Buds Pro 3 maintains a design similar to the previous model but boasts a more upscale appearance with a faux leather finish on the case. The earbuds feature a dual-tone finish, with a metallic stem and matte upper part. They will be offered in two color variants: Midnight Opus and Lunar Radiance.
Inside, the earbuds are expected to house the same 11mm woofer and 6mm tweeter configuration found in the earlier model. Continuing its collaboration with Dynaudio for sound tuning, OnePlus aims to deliver high-quality audio performance.
Advanced Technology
The Buds Pro 3 is anticipated to have enhanced noise cancellation capabilities, offering up to 50dB ANC, a slight improvement over the 48 dB found in the Buds Pro 2. For gaming enthusiasts, the earbuds are reported to have a latency of 94ms.

OnePlus has also confirmed the inclusion of wireless charging support.
The earbuds are also likely to support the LHDC 5.0 audio codec, allowing a 1Mbps transmission rate and the capability to handle 192kHz/24bit lossless audio wirelessly. Further features include IP55 dust and water resistance and Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity for enhanced stability.
