Our verdict
Under 3,000 rupees, the Nord Buds 3 Pro packs specs that shame pricier rivals: up to 49 dB hybrid ANC, big 12.4mm drivers and even LHDC for higher-bitrate streaming. It is an easy recommendation for students and budget buyers wanting genuine noise cancellation and thumpy sound. Battery halves with ANC engaged and the tuning leans bass-forward, but for the money the feature set is remarkable value.
