Outstanding Audio Experience

OnePlus Nord Buds 2 aims to deliver an impactful bass and immense clarity in audio quality. With a BassWave™ Enhancement, the OnePlus Nord Buds 2 allows audio content to stay true to its original quality and exhibit a broad bass. It’s equipped with a 12.4mm extra-large enhancement driver unit to increase bass quality for bolder beats. The earbuds produce balanced sound quality for optimized audio in music and voice calls. An added layer of titanium in the vibrating diaphragm improves audio stiffness and provides instantaneous response for ultimately bolder and crystal-clear audio.

To provide an immersive experience, OnePlus Nord Buds 2 reduces background noise through an instinctive Active Noise Cancellation feature with 25dB depth and a dual-core processor. OnePlus Nord buds use an AI algorithm, an advanced technology that allows users to make clear calls using a dual mic system that amplifies the human voice. To retain peace and silence, OnePlus Nord Buds 2 brings users Transparency Mode, which allows users to play music while still being able to hear outside voices and background noise.

Sound quality is further enhanced with a Master Equalization. By delivering several modes, including Balanced, Serenade, Bass and Bold, users can choose which sound quality they want to highlight. OnePlus Nord Buds 2 was designed in collaboration with Dolby Atmos technology that amplifies its mobile phone speakers and Dirac Audio Tuner for smoother performance with higher fidelity, especially when connected to a OnePlus device.

Iconic Quality and Design

OnePlus Nord Buds 2 was inspired by cosmic elements meant to represent the impact and power of its strong bass. Sustainable materials were incorporated and due to its unique sparkling craft, the final finish of each case is different. Each box also comes with a set of surprise stickers to add fun when experiencing the products.

The impeccable battery life of the OnePlus Nord Buds 2 takes users further and makes the buds last longer. A full charge can last up to 7 hours without its case and 36 hours with the charging case. It only takes 10 minutes of charging to guarantee up to 5 hours of usage, with the Active Noise Cancellation off. It is also durable against dust and water with a certified IP55 rating.

To improve functionality, the OnePlus Nord Buds 2 allows users to customize settings using quick taps and long presses to dictate the action.
