About three months after the higher-end version (the Nord Buds 4 Pro), the Chinese company announced a new pair of earbuds and once again it is a well-rounded all-around solution. The OnePlus Nord Buds 4 are official in India and represent the right balance between quality and price, offering premium features albeit with some compromises (but at an affordable price).
The aesthetics of the new earbuds are very close to the Pro variant, and the company promises a similar audio experience. The earbuds feature 12 mm dynamic drivers and offer a stem design with in-ear wearability. Bluetooth 6.1 is present as well as support for the AAC and SBC codecs.
Compared to the Pro model, LHDC 5.0 codec compatibility is missing; volume controls via the swipe gesture on the stem are also absent. The last trade-off concerns ambient noise cancellation: the new Nord Buds 4 offer ANC up to 52 dB, while the larger Pro reaches 55 dB.
The rest of the package is basically unchanged: the earbuds support 3D spatial audio, AI translation feature, Game Sound Spatial Audio, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity and touch controls.
The call noise reduction is handled by six microphones, for crystal-clear audio even in windy conditions. All with an ergonomic and lightweight design (each earbud weighs only 4.3 grams) and a shell rated IP55.
Battery life is powered by 62 mAh per earbud and 530 mAh for the charging case: about 13 hours of playback with ANC off and up to 54 hours counting the use of the charging case.
The price of the new OnePlus Nord Buds 4 is 3,499 rupees, about 32€ at the current exchange rate. Like the Pro version, the debut took place only in India and we don’t know if they will arrive in Italy. Previously the Nord Buds 3 Pro earbuds had also surfaced in our latitudes, but given the the current situation of OnePlus, we do not feel like making predictions.
