Earbuds with active noise cancellation (ANC) technology are often associated with having a higher price tag over original options, but the OnePlus Buds Z2 headphones have been announced as a cost-effective new option.
The earbuds are equipped with ANC technology to continuously block out exterior noises and disturbances, and boast a short stem out of the main body along with an overall compact design. The earbuds are rated to deliver up to 38-hours of total use with the accompanying charging case with ANC off, while turning the function on will deliver 27-hours.
The OnePlus Buds Z2 earbuds are priced at $99 and are being launched in the US market as well as in the UK and Europe for £99 and €99, respectively.
