OnePlus released the OnePlus Buds Z to accompany its latest smartphone, theOnePlus 8T. These true wireless earbuds are affordable, attractive, and durable too. Although the new OnePlus Buds are relatively cheap, they include premium features like water-resistance and Dolby Atmos support.

The earbuds are durable despite each bud’s 4.7-gram weight, which is even lighter than the originalOnePlus Buds. These IP55 dust- and water-resistant earbuds can withstand a splash or two, so long as you don’t submerge them. A 10mm dynamic driver sits within each earbud, and OnePlus injected these earbuds with its bass boosted sound signature. This means the bass response should be plenty loud.
In total, you’re afforded 20 hours of playback, and five hours on a single charge. They also support the company’s famed fast charging technology. When the earbuds are placed in the case for just 10 minutes, listeners are provided with three hours of battery life.
