#oneplus #buds3 - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
I usually buy the Soundcore earbuds and headphones but since I just bought the OnePlus 12 I decided to give these Buds 3 a go. They are amazing, sound quality is good and it's so stylish. My mom still uses the first One Plus Buds that came out several years ago and it still works perfectly and she uses it everyday.
Awesome stuff and great to hear the buds are lasting
Do they fall out of your ears easily?
@@zpbeats3938 no they stay in my ears very snuggly with the large ear tips and the seal is great. You can even wear these for running and working out!
Hey can you please tell if pro 2 has better sound quality or spatial audio than the 3? or is it otherwise? Also is in game latency as good as the buds 2 Pro?
@@zpbeats3938always depends on ear shape
Wow that spreadsheet and being able to choose your own weights for each category is amazing, thank you!
I really appreciate the hard work you put into this. I got these 3 days ago and my experience matches yours. I like these as much as my Sennheiser TW3s and Nothing Ear 2s. Crazy value! They look awesome, too.
I appreciate the support! Glad you're liking them as well
Thanks for the review. I tried adding a cost rating to your spreadsheet, and these buds then came out on top for me! Shame my phone doesn't support LHDC, but I'm thinking about these for in the office and for travel now (office once a week, very occasional travel). Thanks.
was on the fence of getting them. now i'm definitely buying thanks to your extensive review. great wrok. thank you!
No worries enjoy them!
Appreciate that you always preface the fit/comfort depends on individual's ears. The Buds 2 Pro were my favorite and comfortable buds, but in the silver color they constantly popped out during workouts. The Liberty 4 NC fit my ears the best and were very comparable in sound quality. Keep up the good work.
Cheers! Interesting that the silver colour pops out. Do those artips have less grip?
@@pickyaudio the silver coating must be slippery, as I tried Spinfit eartips with no avail.
Been hyped for this, havent seen the whole vid, but I know it will be great
I went all out for this one haha!
These are awesome 😎 love that the volume is loud and sound is great.
Hi there, thanks for the video! Detailed and clear explanations - really appreciate it. Convinced me pick up these buds - will be doing so shortly with your link :)
Bro ur work is really terrific, breaking down the experience in parts n then ranking them individually, pretty scientific….i remember that I had brought soundpeats h1 way back in 2020 after seeing ur review, they really served me well but after repeated falls over the years, the right side is gone completely…checked ur channel back n i see many improvements in presenting the facts for audiophiles, u r doing a great job man…i wish u many more subscribers as it is a niche segment…i realise the effort it takes to bring such detailed videos…more power to you👍👍
H1 are a classic! Sad to hear they have passed on. I really appreciate the kind words!
Thanks for the video. I think you should consider to also add the sound quality test at the road you used to do. That's the way I found you thinking it was very good someone testing it in reality. So if that was added to the other test it would be great. Also if you want to do even more adding a quick comparison of 1-3 who is better to that.
Thanks for the recommendations!
Awesome channel mate. I wonder why you score audio quality of the 1+ buds 2 and these over the airpods pro 2. Also weird anecdote my airpods pro 2's sound quality has died out over time. I tested them over a new pair and the difference was noticeable. Have you ever experienced anything like this?
This us the most detailed video on a earbud. Just got this earbuds and they are actually good.. keep up the good work man
Another fantastic video w comparison of the best. If you get a chance can you review the realme air 5 pro? They seem to go head to head with these, many reviewers claiming to be better than buds 3. Would love to get a review from your channel as it's my fav audio channel. Cheers!
Thanks man! Another awesome review, i have the buds 3 with the OnePlus 11 and there so good! I'm a techno bass guy and these buds deliver!! 😎💪🏻
No worries! Great combo and yep the buds 3 are perfect with techno 👍
For all your effort, a big thank you. You have my like and subscription. A truly valuable channel.
Great review as always thanks for taking the time
Really appreciate your efforts for great details..
Great review! Will you be doing a review for Redmi Buds 5 Pro? Thanks!
Have you ever used any of the status earbuds? I think they would be good to include in comparisons
Great job again. You really are one of the best. I bought the original Nothing earbuds years ago and they were absolute garbage. The volume was so low, they were unusable. I hope the newer ones are better, but I'll never buy another one of their products, once bitten. They weren't cheap at the time, either. I would love to try these one day, but I have so many earbuds...thanks to you mate, lol.
Cheers! Yep they were pretty bad but Nothing has improved the Ear 2 drastically and they are constantly improving/updating their products. After using the phone 2 a bit as well the quality you get for the price is amazing. Definitely worth giving them another go
I didn't think that I would find earbuds that sounded better than my Sennheiser CX Plus or Edifier W240TN! I have twelve pair of earbuds including the AirPod Pro 2's. The are my new favorite. If these had Apple's H2 chip there would be no need to ever buy another pair of earbuds in my opinion unless you wanted a waterproof pair. The sound on these for me is superb with the Golden Sound profile, 3D Audio and the Bass Wave. Everything I listened to is just so much better in these. Thanks again Picky Audio for another excellent recommendation.
What would you suggest between AirPods Pro 2 vs these? I’m a college student and I’d say I prioritize sound quality of my music while I study over other aspects, as outside noise doesn’t bother me too much
I love your videos thats the reason why i am always looking for Mershall Motif 2 review will there be one?
Thanks! I’m already backed up with testing but I’ll keep them in mind 👍
Do you recommend eartip replacements for these such as the SpinFit CP1025, SednaEarfit Xelastec or any others? Do you know the nozzle diameter on the oneplus bud3? Also would cheap Magnetic AirPods Straps fit the oneplus and do you think it would get in the way of the touch controls? TIA
How would you compare the OnePlus 3 to the JBL LIVE PRO 2? And in that same price range what do you think are the best earbuds?
Lolll dude you're using Pneuma to test out the buds. Literally the exact song I use with Invincible off that album
Do you recommend those for Samsung s24 ultra that does not support lhdc codecs?
Thank you for another great one, Picky! 👍
Thanks for watching!
After almost 3 years to upgrade my earbuds, I've been searching the entirety over web and found your videos. Just top tier 🔥🔥🔥
Btw I'm gonna get buds 3.
This is the best ever detailed review 👌
Do you think Onebuds 3 are better for calls from Linkbuds S?
Is the tactile controls with a hood not causing problems ?
can you compare onplus buds 3 vs realme buds air 5 pro vs oppo enco air 3 pro
I owned sen 3 . Sony x4 . Soundcore 3, 4 nc , and Samsung buds 2 pro.
Tbh I like this one buds 3 . Same par with Samsung buds 2 Pro. But the Samsung a lil more warmth in dynamics. Get this you won't regret. The sound quality is up there with the big boys.
bro, your phone looks awesome! which phone and which icon pack are your rocking?
For a minute there i thought I did something wrong. Lol😅. You're knocking the ball out of the park with these reviews. No other channel gives me so much info in a relatively short amount of time. Thank you. 💯👍🇺🇸
Haha! Cheers Mike, that’s my aim so I’m glad it’s coming across 👍
How good is this for attending office meetings and when trying to speak in public places which is having noise like railway stations, etc... is this good particularly for office meetings to attend like teams, zoom calling for corporate meetings???
Which is better nothing ear 2 beats studio buds plus or OnePlus buds 3 ?? My phone is OnePlus 12 I've used sony xm5 but the mic quality is awful Samsung buds pro 2 and the mic is still awful now I'm torn between nothing eae 2 beats studio buds plus and OnePlus buds 3
I would like to buy headphones, but I don't know if the Buds 3 or the Buds Pro2, I'm interested in noise cancellation, high audio quality, and audio quality for calls too. advice?
Hi, amazing review!! would you recommend the one plus buds 3 over the soundpeats air 4 pro??
Thanks! Yep
OnePlus is really really really good. But OnePlus issues is battery damage. After 1 year use the battery backup will be worse. I used one plus buds pro but same issue. So I buy liberty 4 NC. It is good and overall balanced. But for sound quality and bass OnePlus is unbeatable. By only great issue OnePlus is loosing it's custome. Like green line issue. I also use OnePlus 9 pro. But green issue makes me pale. I will never buy OnePlus phone.
I recently got a pair of these and is songs where there is a lot of S's or sounds that create that affect there is a lot of hissing even when not at high volume is this something you experienced?
Brilliant review, brother!
Another amazing review, thank you.
No worries, thank you!
Thanks for your content! I would really appreciate your reply to the following. Even though it might sound unexpected, I'm comparing Oneplus Buds 3 with Technics EAH-AZ80. Details below.
I know AZ80s as I'd been using them for a couple of weeks. They sound amazing. The only thing to mention is that in some songs the sound is pretty shrill, so it gets uncomfortable sometimes (not too often).
But I can't say I'm satisfied with the fit. These are my first in-ear headphones, so maybe I'm just not yet used to having something actually in my ears, but I feel them pretty clearly, I would love to have a lighter feeling, to be honest.
The ANC was good enough.
And the microphone performance though was good enough only for quiet environment. It was mostly not acceptable to talk to people via AZ80 from outside because of some light wind or moderate surrounding noise.
So based on that, I started looking for an alternative.
AirPods Pro 2 turned out to have cleaner sounding mic but only for not windy conditions.
The ANC is definitely better.
But the sound signature... I just don't feel energy in music coming from them (as opposed to AZ80), so I realized I don't enjoy music with APP2. I guess the main things I noticed - the sound stage is narrower, and there is not enough details in highs to me, also they seem to have much less lower bass (even though I'm not a bass lover).
So I ended up returning them.
And then I've met these Oneplus Buds 3.
I understand they are almost 3 times cheaper than AZ80, so I don't expect them to be close to each other in all disciplines.
And the problem is they sold out, so I can't try them out. So I would be grateful if you share your thoughts, maybe this will help me to understand if they are worth waiting for the stock availability or I should skip them.
So, the questions are:
1) How big is the sound quality difference between Buds 3 and AZ80 (subjectively, of course)?
I love the instrument separation, wide sound stage, the clarity and and crispness of AZ80. How far the Buds 3 are from AZ80 in this?
2) How different Buds 3 from AZ80 in the feeling in the ears?
3) Is there a remarkable difference in the mic performance in noisy and windy conditions?
I listened to the mic tests, so based on them Buds 3 seem to have way much better microphones, but maybe you have wider testing experience with both of them and can tell more details?
Thanks a lot!
Why did you never talk about Marshall Motif 2? I cant find one video of you talking about it :(
I just got this for my REPLACEMENT FOR soundcore as they kinda lagged alot after a year + of usuage . and I can say this was my best purchase ever of the buds 3 the sound quality blew me off and it won't fall off easily while running
Have you tested them for phone and video calls in regards to the microphone quality by any chance? I'm very interested in results of real-life conditions, not only imitated.
Hey can you give me an alternate choices for this one cuz in my country I dont have access to the new products for about half a year after they were introduced
Love your honesty in your review especially the fact that 'all this high res stuff is driving me crazy!' when the difference is minimal. Dont go specs crazy. Just enjoy music at the level your ears can appreciate.
Love it 🙌
I am using these with my nothing ear tips which makes them very comfortable !
Nice!
Awesome review thanks 🤝🏼👍🏼
The review I've been waiting for. One question though, do they sound exactly the same even though the buds 3 has a slighty smaller driver?

🙂
👍@@classicmartini
great review, thanks!
Do the Buds 3 work with Microsoft teams?
We are getting the 1+ buds 3 at $51 and the Moon drop space travel for $35
What should my pick according to you??
Can you test anything fro Baseus? For example Bauses Bowie M2s ? Thanks!
Tool is my favorite band.
Which bud from the mid range would you rather listen their music with?
Thanks for the material.
I love Tool, I’d go with the Buds 3 or Nothing Ear 2
hi! love your videos! what would you recommend liberty 4nc ($75) or one plus buds 3 ($100)? are the one plus buds $25 more? thanks!
Is pretty close That depends on your preferences. I recommend checking out the spreadsheet any seeing if any differences mean a lot to you
@@pickyaudio thanks for the reponse! oneplus 3 buds are still the winner by a close hair! thanks for the spreadsheet and your awesome videos! i just started getting into earbuds/IEMs, and your videos have been so helpful!
Damn my man, you're really strong. 💪🏼💪🏼
Thanks 😊
This qas honestly the best review for a pair of earbuds ive ever seen, hands down !!!
Loved every detail, thanks for all the effort :)
So glad i found this review
PS: have you ever encountered any sort of battery drain issues with oneplus buds pro 2, the buds pro 1 were completely useless after a time,
I just wanted to know if its worth buying oneplus earbuds again
Thanks, glad you liked it! I have not experienced any batter drain issue and having heard about it in my comment sections
Could you add the huawei freebuds? They seem great for calls but the controls aren't the best, however, the mics are great.
Another great Picky review 💯 but how do these stack up against the Free Pro 3?
Cheers BJ! Buds 3 much better overall
Can you suggest me between these op3 vs galaxy buds fe vs nothing ear a
I need better Anc and sound
How are oneplus 3s on ur basshead scale? More basshead bass than the liberty 4nc? Still looking for basshead buds. Disappointed with the bass on the liberty 3 pros. Buds FE have more low end rumbling bass. 75ts not available where im at.
Once you EQ them you can push out some solid bass but slightly less than the 4NC.
I love my OP buds pro 2. I definitely recommend someone picking up a pair OnePlus buds they are amazing.
Easy recommendation
Great video and info, thankyou
No worries!
I wonder if there is a difference in sound between the global and Chinese versions OnePlus Buds 3
Have you ever tried earmuff-style headphones that don't have the headband?
Thank you for the detailed review.
No problem 👍
Im already using buda Pro 2 which i bought on November later in a month the vuds 3 launch with half of the price
Will buds 3 are a good option with an iphone?
I wonder how the LG T90 Dolby Atmos compares
Thanks for the review dude
No worries!
I am putting a lot of faith in you, because I just bought a pair. I'm very picky about my audio, but I've never been able to buy expensive listening devices. I'm really excited about these
Let me know how you find them 👍
How are they ?
does the spatial audio work with my iphone 14 pro max?
Hello sir please review the baseus m10 im plan to buy ma10 i relly appreciate
Hi!
I Need a little help. I have the Sennheiser CX Plus SE, and I just bought the OnePlus 12. I'm facing some connection issues with the Sennheisers, so I'm thinking of buying the Buds 3. My main question is, are these better in sound quality than my CX Plus? I prefer clearer vocals in my audio preferences.
Thank you.
Great Review Btw🔥
Hi, how is it that your ranking for Liberty 4nc keeps dropping? Initially it was ranked on par with Samsung buds 2 pro but now it's one rank down.
Thinking the same. Don't know why. But it is strange
can you use 3D audio in iphone or laptop
What's the best tips for OnePlus Buds 3?
I had a buds 2 pro and had to return it last week. The biggest issue for me was the shift in audio quality when going to from ANC to off mode. It's so different to the point where it started frustrating me. I am someone that barely uses anc so i have it off most of the time. But god the sound is horrible ( bass is non existent and the vocals are hollow ) in off mode. I used poweramp to get a better EQ setting but didn't get far.
Yea it’s a pretty big difference hey. Most buds have a pretty big EQ shift so I’ve been focusing on that in my latest reviews and adding it to my spreadsheet notes
@@pickyaudio airpods pro (2019) has near zero shift for me. As much as I criticize apple for their weird decisions, they nail simple day to day things like zero cabin pressure, ease of use, virtually no eq shift, clean tuning out of the box,etc. I ended up buying a Bose QC 2023 ( Over ear ) and waiting for it to get delivered to replace my air pods pro. I am so hyped!
Any issue using Chinese version?
I am super confused between Bose QuiteComfort II Buds and Bose QuiteComfort Ultra Buds. Could you please help me select the best pair for listening to music and ANC? PLEASE
Ultra
Yep go for the Ultra
I think the fit may be my issue. I use the large tips on my Pro 2's and the large tips for the Buds 3 must not fit as well. I'm getting much less volume/bass with the Buds 3 at max volume with Apple music capped at 100 decibels. So much so that I'm planning on returning them. Any ideas on cleaning the Pro 2's? I'm having lots of issues with mic quality (siri never understands me) and my in ear detection gets set off all the time (seemingly from sunshine or some shit)
PS Tool FTW
Yea interesting Iv'e never had that issue. And the volume especially with apple music should be fine. Is there ear wax built up on the driver?
@@pickyaudio nope they’ve only been used for 5 hours at best. I’m using the Hey Melody app with the exact same custom EQ and basswave. I also wish the swipe for volume did more than 5% with each swipe, any way to change that? Maybe it’s an Apple only issue IDK.
I thought you mentioned that the medium ear tips made it sound worse on the Buds 3 for you, so I’m having the same issue with the large ones, problem is I don’t have a larger size to use like you did.
What phone/streaming app are you using?
@@pickyaudio 14 Plus Apple Music downloads in lossless
Was the Liberty 4 used in the comparison the NC or or the original ones?
NC
Thanks!
Can you do a video on developer options LHDC and other options
I've been thinking about it. Iv'e done a lot of research into it haha
i really need an answer does it work well with ios? like connectivity wise? do they auto connect after you first pair them? like airpods when you open them do they connect or do i have to go to bluetooth every time thanks for the answer
They work perfectly on my iPhone 15 pro.
@@pickyaudio when you open the case does it auto connect to your iphone? when you have first paird it?
You're missing out on the best. The Oppo EncoAir3Pro. They blow OnePlus out of the water in terms of sound quality!
hiii bro
few day back i lost my op buds pro 2's charging case
so im planning to buy op buds 3
can i charge my buds 2 pro with buds 3's charging case?
No :(
It won't work
Little question, what app do we have to use on Android non-Oneplus phones to set the EQ ? Couldn't find an app on the Play Store...
Hey melody
thanks for the review gonna buy buds 3 over 2 pro
No worries, enjoy!
I have these and love them, I have had the Liberty 4, 4NC, and Nothing ear 2, and these are the overall best. I'm confused about the charging times, though. Are those times for when the case is plugged in to the outlet? Is it better to switch off ANC before putting them in the case, for a faster charge? Earbuds charge 10min for 2h playback doesn't seem accurate at all, it only charges ~10% in 10min so it can't have 2h playback!
Nice! Turning off ANC won't make a difference. I think the 10m = 2h playback is with ANC off.
How's the call quality on the nothing ear 2? Do you need to be loud while talking?
@zefft-ju5bs not at all, call quality is very good. Maybe in loud scenarios it can be a little bit drowned
@@jvmjunior10 ah okay. I had the OnePlus buds 3 as my other option. I'm someone who values calls more than anything else. Should I go for them?
Hi, can i ask if which one should i get between soundcore liberty 4 nc or oneplus buds 3. My priority is call quality and next is battery life. Thank you
What would you want to give to earbuds 10/10 on controls?
I'm just curious
Full customisation, a combo of squeeze controls and swipe gestures. And skin detection for the wearing detection. That’s the ultimate control to me haha
Do you think replacing my ear 2s with these is worth it, considering battery life, sound quality and ANC?
Not worth it unless you want really need that extra battery
Which color is looking good 🤔🤔🤔🤔 blue or black??????
Need review of Redmi buds 5 pro with comparison of 1+Buds 3
For a samsung galaxy s 23, what's better, Galaxy buds 2 pro or oneplus buds 3?
galaxy buds 2 pro
I gotta say I have these several different types of power beats pro , Google pro and standard buds but these one plus blow the others away .
Comfort and sound are awesome and don't become painful after half hour or so .
How do they feel comfort wise in comparison to Airpods Pro? Airpods Pros don't give a feeling of vacuum and feels just as if you are not wearing buds.
Very similar. The AirPods Pro 2 have a slightly lighter feel though
I'm curious if this is worth getting over the Buds FE since I'm using a Samsung phone, so I can only use AAC on these.
Go for fe if you using a Samsung phone and supports the codec of FE
