OnePlus has confirmed the specifications of the Bullets Wireless Z3 ahead of its June 19 launch. The neckband-style earphones stick to the same design and 12.4mm drivers used in the Bullets Wireless Z2, but bring improvements in battery life, connectivity, and call quality.
The Z3 supports Bluetooth 5.4 with a range of up to 10 meters. It offers Google Fast Pair and supports AAC and SBC audio codecs. The earphones include magnetic controls, a button with multiple press functions, and an in-line remote. They weigh 26 grams and come with an IP55 rating for water and dust resistance.
Battery capacity is still 220mAh, but total playback time is now 36 hours at 50 percent volume. A 10-minute charge gives up to 27 hours of use, compared to 20 hours on the Z2. Charging is done through a USB Type-C port, though OnePlus will not include a charging cable in the box.
Call quality should be better with the help of AI noise reduction and environmental noise cancellation. However, there is no active noise cancellation. The Z3 also adds support for OnePlus 3D Spatial Audio.
The frequency response range is 20Hz to 20,000Hz, with a driver sensitivity of 98±3dB, maximum sound pressure of 102dB, and impedance of 32 ohms. The product dimensions are 12.43 cm by 17.45 cm by 1.31 cm.
The earphones come with three pairs of silicone tips in small, medium, and large sizes. They will be available in Mambo Midnight and Samba Sunset color options. Pricing has not been announced yet. Availability will be limited to India, unlike the upcoming OnePlus Buds 4, which will launch in Europe and North America.
