In style-conscious Milan, OnePlus unveiled four new devices But the main feature of this announcement is more power and more metal

All four new devices, the OnePlus Nord 4, OnePlus Pad 2, OnePlus Nord Buds 3, and OnePlus Watch 2R, have upgrades that allow them to compete with comparable mid-priced devices in the phone, tablet, earpiece, and wearable segments The company has been working on a number of new products However, the aforementioned metal is from the Nord 4, Pad 2, and Watch 2R, which use a lot of aluminum for a unique look

Below is an overview of the four new OnePlus devices that were just announced at the OnePlus Summer Launch Event We invite you to see if they are worthy of their Milan debut

The star of the show today is the Nord 4, which we think is one of the best budget phones of the year, as you can read in our OnePlus Nord 4 review

Now here's an overview of the phone: the Nord 4 is a dazzling looking phone thanks to its aluminum body and is available in black, silver, and green It has a large display, a big battery, and more importantly a competitive price in the world of budget smartphones

We are a little unsure about the quality of the camera, or OnePlus' reasons for only offering full software updates for four years Furthermore, it hurts that the US seems to miss out on this phone, as US customers tend to only be offered inexpensive Nord N-series devices However, we really like this device overall and it deserves to be the headliner of today's event

Having just tried out OnePlus' latest tablet with a hands-on with the OnePlus Pad 2, we're confident that OnePlus has done a great job of powering up its already capable slate of devices

The Pad 2's skeleton is the same as the Pad 1, but OnePlus has enlarged the screen, upgraded the chipset, reworked the Stylo and Smart Keyboard accessories, and introduced for the first time in the OnePlus Open, the ultra-handy Open Canvas added a multitasking system However, some users may wonder why they would choose this over spending a little more money on the iPad Air M2

This is just a first impression, so if you're tempted to bypass Apple's well-established tablet family in favor of a well-rounded Android option, check back soon for a full review

Available July 16, the Nord Buds 3, available in Starry Black and Soft Jade and priced at $79/79 pounds, are the latest inexpensive but high-performance earphones from OnePlus

Housed in an oval-shaped case, the Nord Buds 3 weigh only 44 grams, minimizing ear strain when worn In addition, they are IP55 rated, so they are safe even if dropped in wet or dusty places

The Nord Buds 3 have large 124mm drivers, tuned with OnePlus' BassWave 20 to bring out delicious bass It also has Master EQ, which allows you to switch between three different presets to tune to your liking All of this is provided via Bluetooth 54 connectivity

The real treat that the Nord Buds 3 brings is Adaptive ANC; according to OnePlus testing, the Nord Buds are capable of up to 49 dB of noise cancellation and have been certified by TÜV Rheinland as “high performance noise cancelling”

To further enhance user convenience, Nord Buds 3 supports Smart Noise Cancellation, which automatically adjusts ANC based on ambient sound levels There is also a transparency mode that allows users to hear the outside world when needed and a triple-microphone setup that maintains clear audio during calls

OnePlus claims that the Buds 3 provides 12 hours of battery life, but this is only with ANC turned off Total battery life, including additional charging in the case, is 20 hours with ANC on and 44 hours with ANC off

Last but not least, the OnePlus Watch 2R is available today It is on sale for $229/£249, a $70/£50 discount from the OnePlus Watch 2 at launch

The Watch 2R features a lighter body, made of the same aluminum as the Nord 4 It comes in two color variations, forest green and gunmetal gray However, a further change from the OnePlus Watch 2 is that the green Watch 2R has a two-tone design, with a contrasting silver casing on the outside of the watch

Otherwise, the watch has the same great features found in the OnePlus Watch 2: Snapdragon W5 and BES 2700 MCU Efficiency chip, and two operating systems, Wear OS 4 in normal mode and RTOS in battery-saver mode According to OnePlus, it can last up to 100 hours in smart mode and 14 days in battery saver mode

And when it comes to charging, the included cradle can charge the phone at up to 75W, which can fill the 500mAh battery in one hour When it comes to charging, OnePlus speed is always reliable

Other important points include generous specs of 2GB RAM and 32GB storage memory, IP68 rating and 5ATM pressure resistance, and the ability to download any Android phone to provide the same functionality as the OnePlus phone with the connected The OHealth app is mentioned This allows one to monitor sleep patterns, heart rate, stress levels, and of course tracked workouts, with a lot of data available to analyze performance
