OnePlus Nord Buds 4 launch in India with 54-hour battery life and affordable pricing
OnePlus has expanded its budget audio lineup in India with the launch of the Nord Buds 4, a new pair of affordable true wireless earbuds aimed at users who want strong battery life, active noise cancellation, and modern connectivity without spending too much.
The OnePlus Nord Buds 4 arrive with an introductory price of around $35, making them an attractive option in the budget wireless earbuds segment. They sit below the Nord Buds 4 Pro, offering many of the same core features while trimming down a few premium extras to keep the price lower.
One of the key features of the Nord Buds 4 is active noise cancellation. The earbuds offer up to 52dB ANC, which is slightly lower than the 55dB noise cancellation available on the Pro version. Even so, this level of ANC should be useful for reducing background noise during commutes, workouts, office hours, or casual listening sessions.
For audio, OnePlus has equipped the Nord Buds 4 with 12mm drivers designed to deliver strong bass and clear sound. While the earbuds appear to share a similar driver setup with the Pro model, they do not include support for higher-end audio codecs such as LHDC. That means users looking for advanced high-resolution wireless audio may still prefer a more premium OnePlus earbuds model, but for everyday music, videos, and calls, the Nord Buds 4 should cover the basics well.
The earbuds also support 3D Spatial Audio, adding a more immersive listening experience for supported content. OnePlus has included a dedicated Game Mode as well, which is designed to reduce audio latency while gaming. This should make the Nord Buds 4 more appealing to mobile gamers who want sound effects and in-game action to feel more responsive.
Call quality is another area where the Nord Buds 4 aim to stand out. The earbuds feature a six-microphone system combined with OnePlus’ Clear Call algorithm. This setup is designed to improve voice pickup and reduce unwanted background noise, helping users sound clearer during phone calls, video meetings, and voice chats.
Battery life is one of the biggest highlights. OnePlus claims the Nord Buds 4 can deliver up to 54 hours of total playback with the charging case when active noise cancellation is turned off. With ANC enabled, the total battery life is rated at around 27 hours. That makes the earbuds a strong choice for users who want long-lasting performance for travel, daily commutes, or extended listening throughout the week.
The Nord Buds 4 also include Sound Master EQ, allowing users to customize the sound profile based on their preferences. Whether someone prefers heavier bass, clearer vocals, or a more balanced sound, the EQ options should provide some flexibility.
In terms of comfort and design, OnePlus is positioning the earbuds as lightweight and easy to wear for long periods. They also come with modern pairing features, including Google Fast Pair and Microsoft Swift Pair, making them easier to connect with Android devices and Windows PCs. Bluetooth 6.1 support is included as well, helping improve wireless connectivity and overall stability.
The OnePlus Nord Buds 4 are available in two color options: Astral Teal and Stellar Black. With their combination of long battery life, active noise cancellation, spatial audio, low-latency gaming mode, and affordable pricing, the Nord Buds 4 could become a competitive option for buyers looking for budget wireless earbuds in India.
