OnePlus Nord Buds Price in Kenya
OnePlus Nord Buds Price in Kenya 7,999. This design language carries over to a pill-shaped case styled in a similar matte black plastic. The only notable difference is the OnePlus name on the lid in glossy black letters that don’t draw too much attention. The only other visible traits are a status LED in the front and the USB-C port in the back, which sits next to a virtually invisible button used for pairing.
I’ve noticed one other quirk after spending more time with the buds, but I’m not sure if it’s intentional or merely a fluke. It turns out the top of the case has a magnetic field in the center that will hold a single bud in place. It’s not an aggressively strong hold, and the bud must be in the correct orientation, but it’s enough to hold a bud even with the case upside down. Perhaps this sounds like a strange thing to be excited about, but I can’t count the number of times I have been wearing just one bud and then removed it for a conversation. If I need to set down the bud for a few minutes, it’s more convenient to place it on the top of the case rather than open the lid and orient the bud into its cradle.
Comfort is pretty good, at least for short and mid-length listening sessions. It seems to take between 30-45 minutes before I get perceivable fatigue, a bit longer than most of the buds I’ve used in the past. However, they seem to also hit a point of irritation more quickly, leaving me wanting to take a break after a little over 2 hours instead of the 3-4 hours I can reach with some other buds.
In addition to the case and buds, the box includes the standard three sizes of silicone ear tips, a USB A-to-C cable, manuals, and one of three Nord emoji stickers.
Sound quality
If you’re expecting sound quality to suck at the $39 price point, leave those thoughts behind. The Nord Buds still won’t impress seriously picky music listeners, but they deliver clean and crisp sound that’s much closer to the premium counterparts than it rightly should be.
