OnePlus Buds Z review

The OnePlus Buds Z are the company’s latest set of wireless earbuds. They are OnePlus’ second set of truly wireless earbuds after the OnePlus Buds launched a few months ago.

Unlike the OnePlus Buds, the OnePlus Buds Z have an in-ear design along with an IP55 dust and water-resistance rating. They also have a reduced claimed battery life of 5 hours of continuous use, compared to 7 hours of claimed battery life on the OnePlus Buds.However, the OnePlus Buds Z are cheaper than the OnePlus Buds, which makes them a bit more interesting. They are also one of the cheapest set of TWS earbuds on the market from a name-brand and at least on paper, seem to have a full-set of features. In this review, we will find out how well the OnePlus Buds Z perform for their price. Later on in the review, we will also see how they stack up against the more expensive OnePlus Buds, and which ones you should be considering for your next purchase.The OnePlus Buds Z earbuds have the signature OnePlus design that the company has used on all of its wireless audio products since the OnePlus Bullets Wireless 2. This includes an oblong shape that houses the drivers with a large, flat, circular back panel with a CD-like pattern that is also touch-sensitive. The speaker housing looks nearly identical to those on the Bullets Wireless 2/Z, except for the long stalk that sticks out at the bottom and houses the battery, antenna, and other electronics.
