Last week, OPPO released teaser posters that hinted at the release of a new pair of Enco X earbuds alongside the Find X3 series. The new pair of TWS earbuds, which is actually just a new colorway, is dubbed the Enco X Blue Edition and it will go on sale on March 19.

Just as the name says, the new colorway has a blue paint job, and it brings the color options which include black, white, and Bamboo Green to four. OPPO has gone with a glossy finish for the earbuds and most part of the case, save for the frame which has a metallic finish. Inside the box are two pairs of extra silicone tips in the same blue color as the earbuds. Other than the different paint job, the features are the same.

Each earbud of the Enco X weighs 4.8 grams and has an 11mm driver and a 6mm speaker unit. The Enco X has four-levels of noise cancellation (counting when it is turned off too) including a transparent mode. The earbuds also support SBC, AAC, and LHDC codecs.

The battery life for each earbuds is about 5.5 hours and it goes up to 25 hours with the charging case. With ANC turned on (at the highest level), the total battery life drips to 20 hours. The case charges via USB-C and also supports Qi wireless charging.

Last October, OPPO announced the Enco X, a pair of TWS earbuds made in partnership with Danish audio company, Dynaudio. OPPO has revealed that there will be an announcement tomorrow for another Enco X, but from the posters, we are not sure if it is a new model entirely, a new color variant, or a special edition of some sort.

Acoording to posters which have surfaced online, OPPO will unveil a pair of Enco X TWS earbuds made in collaboration with Dynaudio at tomorrow’s Find X3 event. The tag line on one of the images teases “a new sound quality experience”.

The second poster shows a large water droplet shaped like the case of the Enco X that was announced last year. Some have reported that this is a tease for the color variant of the earbuds.

The Enco X which launched last year for ¥999 has support for SBC, AAC, and LHDC codecs, three-level noise reduction, Bluetooth 5.2, and IP54 rating, and a battery life of 5.5 hours. With the case, the battery life shoots up to 25 hours. The earbuds supports wireless charging, has a quick pair mode, and also supports single-earbud mode. It is available in green, black, and white.

The OnePlus Buds has a companion app that allows you to configure the earbuds, find them, and also receive firmware updates that bring new features. However, the app is only compatible with select OnePlus phones (OnePlus 6 and up). This means that owners of older OnePlus phones or non-OnePlus phones who pick up OnePlus TWS earbuds will miss out on these features.

OnePlus has now released a new app called HeyMelody that allows owners of older OnePlus phones or non-OnePlus phones to enjoy some of the aforementioned features including firmware updates.

The HeyMeldoy app can be installed on any Android device running Android Marshmallow and up. While it is a OnePlus app, it works not only with the OnePlus Buds and OnePlus Buds Z but also with the newly-announced OPPO Enco X and OPPO Enco W51 earbuds.

Users will be able to pair their earbuds to their phones using the app, check the battery level of each earbud and charging case, and also receive firmware updates.

The app is still in development and may be unstable but if you are willing to give it a try, you can download it here.
