OnePlus looks set to update its budget earbuds lineup again, and the OnePlus Buds Ace 3 have now quietly shown up on the company’s official website, revealing the design. It’s not a full announcement yet, but there’s enough there to get a rough idea of what’s coming.

The earbuds are rated for up to 55dB active noise cancellation. OnePlus is also leaning into gaming a bit, with FPS-specific audio tuning aimed at making things like footsteps easier to pick out. Whether that makes a big difference in real use is something we’ll have to see.

The company is claiming up to 54 hours of battery life with the case, which sounds impressive on paper. In reality, it’ll probably depend on how much ANC you use, but still, it’s a noticeable jump from earlier models.

The Buds Ace 3 will come in Titanium Silver and Interstellar Black, and from what’s visible, OnePlus hasn’t tried to change things too much here. There are still a few gaps, though. Details like driver size, latency numbers, or even call performance haven’t been fully listed yet, so this isn’t the complete picture.

Looking back, the OnePlus Buds Ace 2 were launched in late 2024 at a fairly aggressive price and ended up being a decent value option. They offered solid bass thanks to 12.4mm dynamic drivers, okay ANC, and about 43 hours of battery life. With the Ace 3, OnePlus seems to be pushing things a bit further, especially in noise cancellation and battery.

The fact that these are already up on the official site usually means launch isn’t far away. One of the company’s Weibo posts confirms they’ll arrive later this month, possibly alongside the Ace 6 Ultra. More details should follow once OnePlus makes it official.
