OnePlus is trying to be a vertically integrated phone and accessory maker now, and, in sync with the times, just announced a set of true wireless earphones, the so-called OnePlus Buds we’ve been waiting on for a while. As usual, they are chock full of features, available in several colors – blue, gray, and white – and the $79 price is very, very right.
The OnePlus Buds are the fastest charging true wireless earphones with the best battery life for the price
The case still holds 30 hours of charge, and can be topped off for 10 hours of extra juice in just ten minutes with the company’s Warp charging tech. Here are the main specs and features points of the affordable OnePlus Buds.
