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.

Thankfully, the company has now officially announced to launch the OG Reno4 Pro 5G alongside Enco W51 in the Middle East and select European countries in the coming days.

Chinese smartphone maker OPPO will unveil the original Reno4 Pro first in UAE on September 22, followed by a separate launch for Europe on October 1. The handset will be accompanied by Enco W51, an affordable pair of truly wireless earphones with ANC (Automatic Noise Cancellation).

In case, you have forgotten, the OPPO Reno4 Pro was unveiled as a camera-centric 5G smartphone emphasizing on design. The device comes with a 48MP IMX586 primary sensor paired with a 12MP Sony IMX708 sensor with a 120° ultra-wide lens, and a 13MP sensor with a 5x optical zoom lens. 

Whereas, on the front, it flaunts a 32MP selfie camera nested in a punch-hole located a the top left side of its curved AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate.

Another highlight of this phone is support for 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging for its respectable 4,000mAh battery. Last not least, though it packs some flagship-level features, it is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G paired with 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage.

OPPO released its first truly wireless earphones – the Enco Free in December last year. Since then, the company has continued to churn out several impressive earbuds in a bid to grab a share of the growing “hearables” market. A new OPPO-branded truly wireless earbuds have been patented with the Chinese patent office (CNIPA).

The wireless earbuds adopt an in-ear design as well as a stem just like the Enco W51 TWS earphones that was launched earlier this month in China. The major distinguishing feature between the two is that this certified model has a short stem whereas the Enco W51’s stem is long. The back of the earbuds seems to have a slight curvature. It also features a circular gold ring and a cut-out most likely for noise cancellation.

The certification listing doesn’t include details of the earbuds specifications but we expect it to have features such as active noise cancellation and deep bass. The microphone will also likely be sensitive since the stem is short. Other regular features such as Bluetooth 5.0, IP water resistance rating and possibly a durable battery.

The design equally shows the short stem will have a its back a pair of pogo pins for charging the earbuds inside the charging case.
