OnePlus Will Z2: Active sound suppression for only 99 euros

Many people know the manufacturer OnePlus as a company that manufactures smartphones. From time to time, however, we will see other electronics as well. This time, according to the technology website XDA-developers, we are talking about wireless headphones. These are the OnePlus Buds Z2.

OnePlus Buds Z2 are a great successor to ANC

The newly introduced OnePlus Buds Z2 is the successor to the OnePlus Buds Z wireless Bluetooth headphones we already know. Although the design of this novelty is practically identical to the mentioned OnePlus Buds Z, it brings a few improvements. Perhaps the most significant step forward is the implementation of active suppression of ambient sounds.

The Chinese giant OnePlus has also decided to improve battery life on a single charge. With ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) turned on, you will experience five hours. When you turn this feature off, it lasts up to seven hours. The battery capacity in the handset is 40 mAh. The charging case has a 520 mAh battery. It charges via a USB-C connector with a maximum output of 5 W. 10 minutes of charging will give you approximately 5 hours of playback.

Increased resistance to water and sweat

In addition to active noise cancellation, the user can also look forward to the presence of another handy feature, which is transparent mode. On the contrary, it allows you to hear sounds from your surroundings. Connectivity is provided by low-energy Bluetooth version 5.2. You will definitely enjoy the sensor that stops the media being played after you select one handset or both earphones.

The headphone box is water resistant according to IPX4 certification. The headphones themselves are characterized by slightly higher resistance to water and sweat IPX5. You will find three sizes of silicone drawers in the package. Perfect connectivity is also ensured in the case of other brands of mobile phones. It is provided by the HeyMelody application.

If you try to pair them with a OnePlus device, you will find these customization options built directly into the OxygenOS user interface.

The sound quality should be similar to OnePlus Buds Pro

OnePlus Buds Z2 uses 11 mm dynamic converters. This is the same type of inverter as the OnePlus Buds Pro. This allegedly guarantees deep bass and sharp highs. Also worth mentioning is the support for Dolby Atmos.

The price in the United States is $ 99. In Canada, those interested can get it for $ 149. In Europe, I will spend a pleasant € 99. From the beginning, it will be possible to get them only in white, but next year OnePlus will also introduce a black variant.
