The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance is the light-coloured edition of OnePlus’s top earbuds, a soft silver-grey that looks closer to jewellery than to a black gadget. It has the same hardware as every Buds Pro 3: dual drivers with their own DACs, adaptive noise cancelling up to 50dB, spatial audio with head tracking and LHDC 5.0. Where the black version is the discreet everyday pick, Lunar Radiance suits people who travel, switch between devices and like their earbuds to be seen.

Lunar Radiance: A Light Finish That Stands Out
Lunar Radiance is a pale, warm silver-grey. On the product images the buds and case look almost white under bright light and take on a soft grey in shade, with the chrome stalk accent OnePlus uses on all three colours. The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance pairs naturally with white, silver, beige and pastel phone cases, and with light summer clothing.
The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance is also the easier colour to find. A black case sinks to the bottom of a dark handbag or backpack; a light one catches the eye as soon as you open it. For anyone who has emptied a bag at an airport gate looking for their earbuds, that alone is a reason to choose the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance.
Living With a Light Colour
Light finishes show things that black hides. Makeup, sunscreen and skin oils can leave faint marks on the parts of the bud that touch your ear, and a case carried loose in a jeans pocket can pick up denim dye over time. None of this damages anything, but it shows sooner. Wiping the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance with a slightly damp microfibre cloth after heavy use keeps them looking bright; avoid alcohol on the case finish.
The upside is that dust, lint and fingerprints, which stand out on glossy black, are almost invisible on a pale surface. The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance earbuds are rated IP55 against dust and water, which covers sweat and rain; OnePlus is clear that the charging case itself carries no rating, so do not leave it out by the pool.
Spatial Audio and Two-Device Pairing for Travel
On a plane or a long bus ride, two features matter more than raw sound quality. The first is spatial audio with dynamic head tracking. OnePlus renders it on the buds themselves, so it works with an Android phone, an iPhone or a tablet, and a film’s dialogue stays anchored to the screen when you turn your head.
The second is dual device connection. The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance can stay connected to two devices at once, for example a laptop for a film and a phone for calls, and switch between them without re-pairing. Google Fast Pair works on Android, and Find My Earphones helps locate a lost bud. Adaptive noise cancelling, rated up to 50dB, adjusts itself to the cabin, the train or the street, so you do not have to change modes as the noise around you changes.
LHDC 5.0 and Hi-Res Listening
For people who stream lossless or high-resolution music, the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance supports LHDC 5.0 at up to 1Mbps and 24-bit/192kHz. That needs a phone with LHDC 4.0 or later: OnePlus phones on Android 12 or later support it directly, and other compatible Android phones enable it through the HeyMelody app. AAC and SBC are used on everything else, including iPhones.
Behind the codec sits OnePlus’s two-driver design, an 11mm woofer and a 6mm tweeter with separate DACs, tuned with Dynaudio across a 10Hz to 40kHz frequency response. OnePlus also offers Golden Sound, a personal sound profile built from a hearing test and your ear canal shape.
The Rest, in Brief
Battery: up to 10 hours from the buds and 43 hours with the case with noise cancelling off (AAC, 50% volume), or 6 and 25.5 hours with it on. A 10-minute charge gives up to 13 hours with the case, a full wired charge takes about 70 minutes and wireless about 2 hours 30 minutes. On the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance, calls use three microphones plus a bone-conduction voice sensor per bud. Bluetooth is version 5.4, and each bud weighs 5.28g.
Who This Is Not For
If you want earbuds that never look used, a light colour asks for more care than black; the Midnight Opus version is more forgiving. iPhone owners also miss out on part of the package: LHDC is not supported on iOS, the AI translation feature needs a OnePlus phone on OxygenOS 15.0.1 or later, and the 94ms low-latency mode is limited to select OnePlus phones.
And if your priority is maximum isolation on long-haul flights, over-ear headphones still block low engine rumble better than any in-ear design, including the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 Lunar Radiance.
