OnePlus Buds 4 review: Big on Noise Cancellation

Rating: 3.5/5 OnePlus Buds 4 has officially launched in India with a price tag of Rs 5,999. With the new earbuds, OnePlus continues its push in the budget-to-mid-range audio segment where it has steadily built a reputation over the years. The brand's earlier wireless earbuds, especially the OnePlus Buds 3 were seen as reliable options for those looking for good sound quality, decent battery life, and useful features — all without spending too much. In many ways, OnePlus managed to offer a balance between price and performance, making its earbuds a popular choice for users who wanted something better than the bare minimum but didn't want to spend a fortune. The Buds 4 arrives at a time when the competition in this price segment has only grown stronger. Brands like Realme, Oppo, and even Boat are offering feature-packed earbuds in the sub-Rs 6,000 category, with ANC, app support, and longer battery life becoming common. So naturally, the question arises — does the OnePlus Buds 4 do enough to stand out in 2025? With a familiar yet slightly updated design, support for active noise cancellation, and some new features, the Buds 4 tries to maintain OnePlus' usual formula. But as expectations continue to grow and users look for more value, the Buds 4 aims to deliver beyond brand recognition. Do the Buds 4 prove that they can hold their ground — not just because of the brand name, but because they deliver where it really matters. In this review, we find out. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like JAIN Online MBA – Empowering Future Leaders JAIN Online Learn More Undo Design At first glance, the OnePlus Buds 4 follows a familiar design approach, with an in-ear style and a compact charging case. The buds come in a polished, single-tone finish that looks neat without drawing too much attention. The earbuds are offered in two colour options – Zen Green and Storm Gray. We received the Zen Green model for our review and it looks good. OnePlus has opted for a stem-style design once again, something we've seen in their previous models too. At just 4.73 grams, the buds are really lightweight and sit comfortably in the ear for short to moderate durations. The in-ear design with silicone tips gives a snug, sealed fit for commuting or noisy environments. The case itself is small and pocket-friendly, with a clamshell-style lid that shuts securely. It weighs 40g and slides easily into your pockets without making it heavy. The case uses a gloss finish that does a decent job resisting smudges and fingerprint marks. There's a Type-C port at the bottom for charging and a pairing button inside. The case feels well-built overall, even though it sticks to basic materials. OnePlus Buds 4 Review: Flagship Sound & Gaming Performance Touch controls are located on the stem of each earbud, and they respond with a gentle tap. OnePlus has kept the design simple and functional, which works well if you prefer minimal distractions. While the design doesn't break new ground, it stays practical and consistent with what's worked before. Performance and battery life OnePlus Buds 4 are at their best when it comes to Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). We tested them in a noisy gym, where background music and clanging weights are usually hard to ignore. As soon as we switched on the High ANC mode, the earbuds managed to cut out nearly all of the surrounding sound. Whether it was chatter, loudspeaker announcements, or traffic noise, the Buds 4 filtered most of it out, allowing one to focus on the playlist. That said, the High ANC mode is just one of several options. You can choose from low, medium, high, and even an Auto mode that adjusts depending on your environment. There's also a Transparency mode, which is useful when you want to hear your surroundings while still listening to music. Another adaptive mode switches between ANC and Transparency automatically. These modes can be controlled through the HeyMelody app, though the app experience was frustrating. It often failed to detect the earbuds and required multiple steps to access basic settings, which affected the overall user experience. Talking about the sound performance, the Buds 4 clearly favour bass-heavy output. On tracks like 'Malang' or 'Genda Phool,' the bass kicks are prominent and deep. If you enjoy electronic or club music, you'll probably enjoy how punchy the lows feel. On the other hand, in softer songs like 'Raataan Lambiyan' or 'Kesariya,' vocals are sometimes overpowered by the bass, especially if you're not using a custom sound profile. That's where OnePlus' Golden Sound feature comes in. It creates a personalised sound profile based on a quick hearing test and ear scan. This helped balance the sound better for me, especially in songs with a mix of instruments like 'Shayad' or 'Tum Hi Ho.' Other audio features include 3D Audio (Spatial Audio) and a BassWave enhancer, which boosts low frequencies even more if you want that extra thump. Connectivity was strong throughout testing — the Bluetooth link stayed stable without any drops. Battery life is decent, but not great, especially if you're using all the advanced features. With ANC off, you can expect around 11 hours per charge, but switching ANC on drops that to about 6 hours. The charging case adds more juice, taking total playtime to around 24 hours with ANC on, and 45 hours without. In short, the OnePlus Buds 4 deliver strong ANC and solid bass performance, but battery life and app usability leave some room for improvement. Verdict Compared to its predecessor and other earbuds in the Rs 6,000 segment from rival brands, the OnePlus Buds 4 hold their ground mainly due to strong ANC and useful customisation features like Golden Sound. But if you're expecting a significant leap in all-round performance or app experience, the improvements here are more incremental than transformative. All in all, at Rs 5,999, the OnePlus Buds 4 offers solid value, particularly for users who prioritise bass-heavy audio and noise cancellation. The ANC performance is easily one of the strongest features, making them suitable for noisy environments. Add to that stable connectivity and a comfortable, lightweight design, and the OnePlus Buds 4 covers most of the core needs for daily listening.

OnePlus Buds 4 Review: Flagship noise cancellation, midrange sound quality

Pros: Segment leading ANC and Transparency performance Punchy sound output, support for LHDC 5.0 codec Customisable sound and controls through companion app Slide controls for volume and skipping tracks Comfortable in-ear fit, IP55 dust and splash resistance Wear detection, dual-pairing support Very good battery backup, fast charging Impressive call quality Cons: Default sound feels a step down from the OnePlus Buds 3 Adaptive Noise Control does not work as intended Doesn't get enough out of the dual drivers and dual DAC Price: Rs 5,999 STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Rating: 4.1/5 OnePlus Buds 3 left a highly positive impression on us last year and we were looking forward to meeting its successor, the Buds 4. Unlike the Bullets Wireless Z3 neckband from the company that had a good three years to come up with a significantly better successor, the Buds 3 was always going to be a tough act to follow, and that too in just half the time. The OnePlus Buds 4 does strive to push the performance on every front. Let's see if it succeeds. The case design resembles that of the Buds Pro 3 but with a different finish OnePlus Buds 4: Design and Comfort (7.5/10) While the OnePlus Buds 3 looked like the Buds Pro 2, the Buds 4 design feels like a mix of Buds Pro 3 and Nord Buds 3. The earbuds design is a mix of Nord Buds 3 and Buds Pro 3 Nothing bad about it at all, just that the Buds 3 looked better and had a bit more character. The Zen Green colour variant is more pleasing to the eye than the Storm Gray. The entire product sports a smooth matte finish, making it free of fingerprints and smudge marks. The buds have an IP55 rating for dust and splash resistance, however, the charging case is void of any ingress protection. OnePlus Buds 4 shifts to an oval shaped case from the squarish one of the OnePlus Buds 3 The build quality is quite solid despite the buds weighing less than 5 grams each. Along with the case, OnePlus has managed to keep the weight of the product under 50 grams. The preinstalled mid-sized silicone tips worked best for me and offered decent passive noise isolation. Two more pairs of tips are included in the bundle to choose from. As always, it is very important to choose the right sized tips for best audio experience and ANC (active noise cancellation). OnePlus Buds 4 vs OnePlus Buds 3 - the buds and the case design are completely different now The case is lightweight and fairly pocketable. You get a tiny charge indicator LED at the front, a USB-C port at the bottom and a neatly camouflaged Bluetooth pairing/reset button on the side. The earbuds sit nicely into the ear canals and cause no discomfort even after wearing them for a few hours at a stretch. The fit could have been a little more snug though. On most occasions they didn't pop out even during brisk walks, but at times, I had to readjust them a bit. In addition to the standard touch controls, the slide gestures have been retained, which is great. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The case is quite pocketable and has a charge n paring status indicator LED at the front OnePlus Buds 4: Features and Specifications (9/10) Just like the Buds 3, the Buds 4 are fitted with dual dynamic drivers, with the size of the woofer going up from 10.4 mm to 11 mm, like on the Pro models. There's also a 6 mm tweeter to handle the high-end frequencies, while woofer takes care of other frequency ranges. Each earbud also has three microphones for active noise cancellation (ANC) and calling. A new addition is dual DACs, one for each driver, just like in case of the flagship OnePlus Buds Pro 3. Wear detection sensors and dual-pairing support have been retained in addition to Google Fast Pair. The OnePlus Buds 4 is Bluetooth 5.4 compliant, and supports SBC, AAC and LHDC 5.0 audio codecs. These buds can supposedly manage a higher throughput of up to 1 Mbps on LHDC at 24-bit 192 kHz sampling rate, but that can be phone dependent. In fact, if you do not have a phone that supports LHDC codec itself, you will have to make do with AAC. Support for a more popular codec like aptX HD/Adaptive or LDAC would have been better. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The latency can now go as low as 47 ms on these earbuds and there was no noticeable lag between audio and video when streaming content. ANC figures have seen an improvement too with the Buds 4 capable of reducing up to 55 dB of ambient noise across a 5,500 Hz spectrum. You also have Adaptive Noise Control that is supposed to switch between different intensities of noise cancellation as well as Transparency mode depending on the ambient noise. An AI Translate feature is also included that facilitates live translation. You also get AI translate features, choice of ANC levels and option to update the firmware There are a handful of sound tweaks, ranging from the usual sound presets - Balanced, Serenade and Bass, along with a 6-band equaliser to create your own sound profiles. Bold preset has been given a skip for some reason; just a musical chair of presets, I guess. Then you get the Golden Sound option to create an audio profile based on your hearing capability. And lastly, you can dabble around in OnePlus 3D audio for an extra immersive experience. More on the noise control modes and sound quality in a bit. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD There are a handful of sound and control tweaks in the companion app The top half of the earbud stems are touch enabled and the touch zone is marked with a slight indentation. The touch sensitivity is perfectly fine. You can assign various tasks like play/pause, previous/next tracks, game mode, voice assistant, ANC control etc to single tap, double tap, triple tap and touch-and-hold gestures; not all tasks can be assigned to all gestures though. The touch zones also support slide gestures. One can simply slide a finger from top to bottom or the other way to decrease or increase the volume or change tracks. It remains a highly useful addition and it continues to baffle me how this feature isn't standard on most earbuds yet. The sound and controls can be configured through Bluetooth settings on OnePlus phones released in the past half a decade. HeyMelody app lets you do the same on other phones. OnePlus Buds 4: Performance (8/10) Pairing these earphones with a phone or tablet is a standard process. The connection stayed strong for over 10 metres with a clear line of sight. The firmware was updated to the latest version 126.126.105 during the review process. The Buds 4 are quite loud and rarely did I need to go beyond 60% loudness even when outdoors. The sound is tuned differently from its predecessor. While sound is a subjective matter, we feel OnePlus played a bit too safe with the tuning and let go of the bolder tones of the Buds 3 in favour of some extra bass. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Let me dive a little deeper. The Buds 3 was one of the rare OnePlus products that wasn't too bass-heavy. Of course, there was sufficient bass but the mids had a good presence and the highs were sharp and distinct. The OnePlus Buds 4 falls back on the more massy bass-heavy default sound (on Balanced preset) that doesn't make it as unique as its predecessor. It comes at the cost of sharpness in the mids and highs. To make matters worse, the Bold preset, which is generally more balanced than Balanced, is missing here. Thankfully, one can make the Buds 4 sound a lot better using the Sound Master EQ. A few tweaks can go a long way in making the output sharper and actually more balanced. Though it still doesn't have the sparkle of the Buds 3, these buds sound pretty good for the segment with ample thump in the bass, above average midrange reproduction with clear vocals and reasonably sharp highs without any sibilance. The overall detail in sound is pretty good with a decently broad soundstage, though not very expansive. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Beyond the presets and EQ, you can also create your personalised audio profile using the Golden Sound feature in the app courtesy of a listening test that determines the hearing profile based on your sensitivity to different sounds. It boosts certain frequencies to produce a sharper output. You may or may not like the results, but it is certainly worth a try. You can always disable it if you don't like the results. While the sound quality is good for the segment, we feel the output could have been tuned better to make better use of the dual drivers and even the dual DACs. Interestingly, the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 has a very similar setup but sounds significantly richer and more detailed with far better frequency separation. Dynaudio has done a great job with its tuning. Of course, we are talking about a product twice its cost, but the point being similar spec-sheets don't necessarily produce similar sound. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The sound quality may be par for the course but the ANC certainly transcends the segment. The Buds 4 arguably has the best noise cancellation among all OnePlus earphones and that also includes the Buds Pro 3. And it's not just the decibel numbers we speak of but the actual real world performance. You get four ANC modes - Low, Moderate, High and Auto. Auto mode switches between the other three depending on the quantum of ambient noise. I wouldn't bother with Low as it is passable at best. Moderate mode is good enough in most cases, barring truly noisy areas like public transport, where High ANC would be the right fit. Interestingly, the High mode is also a variable ANC mode and it keeps adjusting the degree of noise suppression depending on the ambient noise, and does a great job of it. When enabled, it perfectly cuts out a lot of low frequency sounds like the whirr of a fan or even traffic noises when outdoors and even some midrange sounds. Though it cannot eliminate human voices entirely, it can noticeably reduce the background chatter in public transport. The only downside being, High ANC mode tends to build a bit of pressure in the ear canal which can be uncomfortable for some. In that case, switch to Moderate mode, which though not in the same league is still effective and better than the peak noise cancellation from most brands in this segment. The Transparency mode here is equally impressive and feels natural. When enabled, it keeps you well aware of your surroundings and you can easily have a conversation without removing the buds from your ears. A quick word on Adaptive Noise Control, a new addition to the Buds 4. It is supposed to be a highly smart option meant to automatically adjust different levels of noise cancellation and also switch to Transparency mode if it feels someone is trying to talk to you or there's an announcement that you should hear. Unfortunately, it seems to have a mind of its own and doesn't work as intended. It still has a lot to learn and probably a firmware update or two away from being smart enough. OnePlus Buds 4: Call quality (8.5/10) The call quality on the OnePlus Buds 4 is quite impressive, and not just indoors. Even when outdoors, the wind noise suppression works well and most of the low frequency to lower midrange ambient sounds were kept well in check. On a busy street, the sound of vehicles was barely audible to the person on the call. Only some nearby human chatter and high pitched sounds like horns trickled through, which none of the earbuds filter out anyway. Your voice sounds clear and natural and the Buds 4 is a very good option if you are looking for wireless earbuds to be used for a lot of calling. OnePlus Buds 4: Battery life (8.5/10) Each bud here is fitted with a 62 mAh battery, while the case packs 530 mAh. The company promises an impressive 11 hours of playback for the buds when using AAC codec at 50% loudness with ANC off and 6 hours with ANC switched on all the time. With LHDC codec, the figures drop to 9 and 5.5 hours respectively. The case provides three more recharges and the overall stated battery backup is four times the above numbers with buds and case combined. The battery status of each earbud as well as that of the charging case is visible in the companion app. I largely tested these earbuds on LHDC codec and the numbers were quite close to those claimed. With loudness between 50 to 60%, the buds lasted a shade over 5 hours with Moderate ANC switched on all the time and about 8 hours and 15 minutes with ANC off. With the case, the overall battery backup figures ranged between 20 to 33 hours depending on your use of ANC on LHDC codec. Though I did not repeat the battery tests using AAC codec, a single run did result in over 10 hours of playback without ANC, so one can safely assume that the AAC figures will be at least 90% of those claimed by OnePlus, which is quite impressive. While the battery backup of the Buds 4 sees a small improvement as compared to the Buds 3, fast charging sees a noticeable jump. A 10-minute charge can now give you close to 11 hours of play time (7 hours previously) on AAC codec with ANC off. All the above battery figures will be lower if you indulge in a lot of calling. The case has a USB-C charging port at the bottom OnePlus Buds 4: Price and verdict The OnePlus Buds 4 is priced at Rs 5,999 in India with a one year warranty. Though Rs 500 more than the Buds 3 at launch, it is still competitively priced for its performance and features. These TWS earbuds offer a punchy sound output with a handful of customisations, great ANC and Transparency, slide controls and very good battery backup and call quality, making it a solid all-round product in the segment. As for the competition, there are largely two options that the Buds 4 should worry about. Firstly, the Earfun Free Pro 3 that sells for a similar price and offers even more features than this OnePlus product like wireless charging and support for Qualcomm's aptX Adaptive codec and Snapdragon Sound. Its sound quality is marginally better too but cannot say the same about its ANC performance where the Buds 4 tops the charts by a distance. The other option is the OnePlus Buds 3 that is still available, and for a good Rs 1,400 less. It is similar to its successor in many ways except ANC, and in fact looks better and sounds sharper, making it a better value-for-money option overall. Take your pick.

OnePlus Buds 4 Review: These Wireless Earbuds Have Almost Everything

Not everyone is an audiophile, and that's okay. But once you've seen (or heard, I guess) the light of getting a little bit more than usual, it's hard to go back. So what exactly is 'a little bit more' when it comes to wireless earbuds? It's not always easy to identify, but you'll know it when you hear it, and the OnePlus Buds 4, while not looking like it on the surface, are definitely delivering that something extra. See Buds 4 at OnePlus Speaking of looks, let's start there. If minimalism is your thing, you'll find nothing to gripe about when it comes to the $130 OnePlus Buds 4. The pair I was sent is 'Storm Gray,' which is to say, uh, gray. I prefer the shape of the case over the OnePlus Buds 3, which evolves from a pillow-like rectangle into an oval-ish egg shape. The gray also has a gunmetal-like finish to it, which, despite not being flashy in any way, is a nice touch. The buds themselves are… earbuds. There's a medium-long stem, and, in general, they look as though they're designed not to call a lot of attention to themselves. And if we're taking the messaging from OnePlus at face value, which is the only value to take it at, that's exactly what they are. They're minimalist buds that fade into the background instead of making a statement. OnePlus Buds 4 Nothing special outside, but better than average sound for the price. Pros Cons The good news is that whatever these wireless buds lack in design, they more than make up for in the way they sound. The OnePlus Buds 4 delivers an above-average listening experience and are priced competitively against comparable pairs of earbuds like those made by Nothing. Sound-wise, they also feel like a step up from the OnePlus Buds 3, especially when it comes to bass—a surprising strong suit of the OnePlus Buds 4. Though some bassy earbuds can sound over-simulated to a degree, I found that the OnePlus Buds 4 deliver a more natural-sounding low end, especially when you couple them with OnePlus' 'Golden Sound' listening test that can assess both your ear canal and your particular hearing levels and then tailor the sound of the earbuds to you personally. TV Girl's 'Fauxllennium' has been my testing song of choice as of late, and after I used Golden Sound to tune the buds to my specific hearing, I was able to hear mids and highs much better amid the bass and low end. It's not that it was muddy with the out-of-box balanced tuning, but there's no beating having each frequency tailored to your ears. This type of personalized tuning technology isn't unique to OnePlus' buds. A few years ago, Nothing partnered with a company called Mimi that brings a similar sound profile experience to the Nothing X companion app. The whole process is very similar to Golden Sound and can tailor the audio tuning to the frequencies you hear (and don't hear). OnePlus' version works just a little bit better. I noticed a fairly drastic difference in my satisfaction with the sound after taking OnePlus' hearing test. Such a big difference, in fact, that I would go as far as to consider Golden Sound mandatory if you're buying these buds. No, really, if you don't take this hearing test, you're leaving money on the table. Whether you prefer the OnePlus Buds 4 audio tuning over competitors like the Nothing Ear will largely depend on preference. Out of the box, I find the OnePlus Buds 4 and their 11mm ceramic-metal diaphragm woofer definitely deliver a more bass-forward experience, but that can also be adjusted in the HeyMelody app by choosing presets and even adjusting the level of 'BassWave,' a feature that dynamically boosts bass depending on the song. Again, the same can be said for competitors like the Nothing Ear and Ear A, which both have preset and granular EQ. Speaking of the HeyMelody app, you should give that a download if you choose to pull the trigger on the OnePlus Buds 4 since that's where you'll activate other features like low-latency mode, which is ideal for gaming, and OnePlus 3D audio, which is OnePlus' equivalent to Apple's 'Spatial Audio' and can change how playback sounds depending on how you tilt your head. When it comes to active noise cancellation (ANC), these buds hold their own. The OnePlus Buds 4 can cancel up to 55 decibels (dB) with a frequency range of up to 5,500Hz. That gives them a slight edge over the Nothing Ear in this case, which has a max cancellation of 45 dB. That's a solid amount more on paper, but I'll be honest, I don't find that the actual experience of using 10 more dB of noise cancellation is really that noticeable. Turning ANC on and off, however, is. Unlike newer wireless earbuds made by Nothing, the OnePlus Buds 4 use touch controls instead of squeeze controls. That means when you want to turn ANC on or off straight from the earbuds, you simply hold your finger on the outside of either earbud for a couple of seconds. Likewise, if you want to quickly adjust the volume without pulling out your phone, you can swipe up or down to turn it up or down, respectively. Swipe versus squeeze controls are mostly a matter of preference, and I'm always going to be more of a swipe guy, so for me, the swipe controls—which work well, by the way—are a point for OnePlus. Those swipe controls were previously only available in flagship 'Pro' buds, by the way, but OnePlus has trickled them down to the standard version this time around. And speaking of other OnePlus products, if you have a OnePlus phone, you can also take advantage of a couple of exclusive features, including a way to trigger AI translation from the earbuds and one called 'steady connect' that increases the Bluetooth range to 250 meters. OnePlus says it's effective even across multiple walls, which is great if you live in a mansion and never want to hear your kids screaming at each other while playing Mario Kart. See Buds 4 at OnePlus Battery-wise, there's nothing major to report here. OnePlus says the buds will get six hours of playback with ANC on at 50 percent volume, which is a bit better than the Nothing Ear, which are rated for 5.2 hours of ANC playback. I've been using the OnePlus Buds 4 for about a week, and those battery estimates seem about right, though I think I'm probably averaging over 50 percent volume on a day-to-day basis. Sorry, my own ears, but the subway needs to be drowned out, okay? Another nice perk is that these buds do allow for fast charging. According to OnePlus, you can get 3.5 hours of playback on your earbuds in just 10 minutes with a fast charge. Including the case, that equates to 11 hours. You may be reading this and thinking, so what's the real difference between the OnePlus Buds 4 and other earbuds? The answer? You. You're the main difference. While there are variations between the OnePlus Buds 4 and similarly priced buds, it's the intangibles that will likely sway you one way or another. For instance, maybe you're in search of a pair of buds that will blend in with any fit you put on, and their very minimalist design is exactly what you need. Or maybe you like the look of competitors like Nothing Ear wireless earbuds, but you don't think the aesthetic is worth the $20 premium. No matter what your preference is, though, there's one thing you can be sure of—the OnePlus Buds 4 are a solid pair of wireless earbuds for the price. That's not a proposition that will appeal to someone who's in search of something unique, but for someone who just needs earbuds in an accessible price range with a certain level of quality, that'll be good enough.
