Additionally, they offer Dolby Head Tracking for adjusting audio based on head movements and support Dolby Atmos.

Both models boast Hi-Res Audio certification and come with a Moto Buds application for customising touch controls and sound equalisation (currently only available on Android).

Battery life differs slightly between the two. The Moto Buds offer up to 42 hours total with the charging case, while the Moto Buds+ offer 38 hours. Playback time with ANC off is rated at 9 hours for Moto Buds and 8 hours for Moto Buds+.

Both support quick charging, with 10 minutes providing 2 hours of playback for Moto Buds and 3 hours for Moto Buds+.

The charging cases utilise USB Type-C charging, with the Moto Buds+ case offering the additional benefit of wireless charging.
