OnePlus Launches Affordable Alternative to AirPods

Technology company OnePlus has released a sophisticated new model of wireless earphones that is sure to appeal to customers looking for a cheaper alternative to AirPods.

Moving away from the design of its previous model, which came in a series of vibrant colors, the OnePlus Buds Pro arrives in two new, sleek color options: 'Matte Black' and 'Glossy White.' The earbuds also come equipped with innovative noise cancellation technology. A first amongst OnePlus' various lines of wireless earphones, the OnePlus Buds Pro is capable of blocking noise up to 40dB.

According to OnePlus, the earbuds offer users "rich treble, heart-pounding bass, and crystal-clear vocals." They are also quite impressive in terms of their charging abilities; one 10-minute charge is intended to give users 10 hours of listening time.
