The poster reveals the OnePlus Buds 3 has a semi-in-ear design with a glossy finish stem and the silicone ear tips having a matte finish.

It is touted to be a true wireless noise-cancelling earphone.  The upcoming TWS earphone is up for pre-orders in China from Tmall, JD, and OPPO Mall. 

As for the core specifications, the OnePlus Buds 3 will reportedly be equipped with a 10.4mm woofer and a 6mm tweeter. It will pack 48dB noise cancellation and come with Google Fast Pair as well as dual connectivity. The earphones will have an IP55 rating. Additionally, tipster Digital Chat Station also reveals that the OnePlus Buds 3 will feature 3D spatial audio, LHDC 5.0, and a massive 44-hour battery life.
