The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 are launching on August 20

We’ve been waiting for these for a while now, but the wait is almost over – the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 will be officially unveiled on August 20 (that’s Tuesday next week). The event will be held at 13:00 UTC, which is in the morning over in the Americas, early afternoon in Europe and the evening in India, which promises a global launch.

You can check out the official landing page, which is teeming with offers. For example, you can subscribe to OnePlus’ newsletter for a chance to win one of ten free pairs of buds – and if you don’t win, you at least get a £10 discount. You can also link a current OnePlus phone with an account and get an additional £10 off. You might be able to snag an additional £10 off through the OnePlus Store app.

You might want to start piling on those discounts, since rumor has it that the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 will be more expensive than their predecessors – the Buds Pro 2 were €180, these will be €200. Leaked specs detail a dual driver setup (11mm woofers, 6mm tweeters), LHDC 5.0 codec (up to 1Mbps at 24-bit/192kHz), 50dB active noise cancellation and an IP55 rating for the buds.

Leaked renders show that the buds will keep the stem design, but will have a new charging case where the stems go down into the case rather than lying flat. The unofficial renders show the buds and case in two colors: Midnight Opus (black) and Lunar Radiance (ivory), both with a leather-like texture on the case.
