The OnePlus Buds, which represent the company’s range of truly wireless stereo (TWS) earphones, may soon receive an update that introduces new capabilities, as indicated by a recent report regarding the integration of artificial intelligence (AI). Users are expected to have the ability to enable AI-driven call summarization through their TWS earbuds. This functionality was allegedly discovered during an APK analysis of the associated companion application. It is anticipated that this feature will facilitate quicker access while users are on phone calls.
AI Call Summarisation on OnePlus Buds
- Android Authority, along with X (previously known as Twitter user @AssembleDebug), identified a new feature through an APK teardown of the OnePlus Buds app version 14.8.2 designed for Android devices. The publication appears to have activated the user interface for this anticipated feature, which reportedly enables users to initiate or conclude call summarization using the earbuds.
A screenshot released by the publication indicates that this feature may be referred to as ‘AI Call Assistant.’ Users might have the ability to toggle it by pressing the stem of the OnePlus Buds three times. However, it is noted that only OnePlus smartphones equipped with the AI summary function will be able to utilize this control through the TWS earbuds, according to the report.
The AI call summarization feature is reportedly not accessible when the smartphone is in super power saving mode, meditation mode, or children’s space. Users will have the capability to activate call summarization to access essential details about the conversation, such as time and location, even if their phone is not within reach.
OnePlus has embraced artificial intelligence, introducing several significant features for its smartphones in recent months. With the launch of the OnePlus Nord 4, the company has incorporated camera-focused enhancements like AI Eraser 2.0, AI Smart Cutout 2.0, and AI Clear Face, in addition to other AI Toolbox functionalities such as AI Speak, Recording Summary, and AI Link Boost.
According to the report, the AI call summarization feature may be made available for the OnePlus Buds 3, the latest TWS earbuds released by the company in February. It remains uncertain whether this feature will also be extended to earlier models. Given that the feature was discovered during an APK teardown, its inclusion in the public version of the app is not guaranteed.
