The OnePlus Community Forum has confirmed more details about the upcoming earbuds. Judging from the certifications and other information gleaned from the community; it’s looking like these buds will have IP55, which is just a little protection from dust and water. You won’t be taking these buds swimming with you or out mountain biking, which is to be expected for its E99 price.

On the good side, however, it does seem to come with two dedicated drivers and tweakers. Perfect for those who like to tailor their sound stage a little more. It will also have noise cancelling onboard up to 48db. The battery life is seemingly good for the price point too; with 6-9 hours depending on your usage. The case also further extends this battery to 22 – 33 hours.
