ONEPLUS Buds Z2 True Wireless Earphones User Guide

ONEPLUS Buds Z2 True Wireless Earphones

With OnePlus Buds Z2, we wanted to redefine what entry-level true wireless earbuds for the brand could be. Here at OnePlus, that meant creating a hearable product with some of the best active noise cancellation in its price segment – up to 40dB1 – along with 11mm dynamic drivers handpicked for bass production and a trio of microphones that help to deliver exceptional call quality. So that’s exactly what we’ve done. Oh, and we’ve also made silence even more accessible as a result.

40dB ActiveR eNviewoeri’ss Geuid Ce ancellation
OnePlus Buds Z2 let you enter your Zen zone with noise-cancelling counter- frequencies that deliver noise cancellation of up to 40dB. The Buds Z2 feature two noise-cancelling adjustable modes – Faint (+/-25dB) and Extreme (+/- 40dB) – that give you more control over your music.
And when you want to stay more in tune with the world around you, Transparency Mode has you covered. Enable Transparency Mode to hear your surroundings and communicate with those around you without having to remove your earbuds.

High-Quality Sound and Dolby Atmos
Do these huge 11mm drivers sound familiar to you? That’s because they’re the same as those found in our flagship hearable – OnePlus Buds Pro. And yes, they deliver the same rich bass, razor-sharp treble, and Dolby Atmos support2 you know and love. The OnePlus Buds Z2 feature three sound modes for various use cases: Cinematic Movie, Immersive Music, and Mobile Gaming.

Crystal-Clear Calls

OnePlus Buds Z2 come with three MEMS microphones on each earbud that work together to fi lter out unwanted noise and ensure your voice is heard loud and clear by those you’re speaking with.

Refined Design

The OnePlus Buds Z2 boast a familiar CD pattern design with a stem that’s 15% shorter than that of the original OnePlus Buds Z. The Buds Z2 are also lighter than their predecessor and come in two colorways – Obsidian Black and Pearl White – that look as good as they sound.

IP55 and IPX4 Water Resistance
The OnePlus Buds Z2 tote IP55-rated internals3 and a hydrophobic nano-coating, meaning you shouldn’t break a sweat if you get them wet. In fact, the Buds Z2’s water resistance means you can quickly and easily clean them with a simple rinse. The charging case can also withstand a splash thanks to its IPX4 rating3.

38-Hour Battery Life
With up to 38 hours of battery life4, the OnePlus Buds Z2 can last all day and night… and then all day again. And when you do need to top them up, plugging them in with Flash Charge for just 10 minutes gives you 5 hours of listening time5.

Seamless Connectivity

OnePlus Buds Z2 let you dive straight into your favorite playlists with Google Fast Pair6 that instantly pair the earbuds with your OnePlus device. If you’re not rocking
a OnePlus, no worries – just download our exclusive HeyMelody app7 to get started. Oh, and OnePlus Buds Z2 also support Find My Buds so you’ll never lose your groove.
