OnePlus Type-C Bullets Earphones

The OnePlus Type-C bullets design is very much on the lines regular V2 Bullets, save for the Type-C port dangling on one end of the chord. There is nothing flashy about these headphones, which means they go well with anything you wear. The earbuds have a metal casing, which adds a premium touch to these otherwise affordable earphones. The rubberized buds are comfortable and fit well in our ear. OnePlus also bundles a few extra buds in the box so you shouldn’t find it difficult to make these fit to your particular ear-size. The connecting cable is flat and tangle-free. The in-line controls that include a volume up – down key and a button in the middle for answering calls or triggering Google Assistant – all made of plastic. The buttons are clicky and feel a bit cheap. As far as the build quality goes, OnePlus claims to have enforced the wire with aramid fibers which will supposedly improve its longevity. The OnePlus USB Type-C earphones are extremely lightweight and don’t pain ears with extended usage. The OnePlus Type C bullets come with an in-built Logic DAC which, as per the company, ensures improved dynamic range while suppressing digital noise. To test out Bullets to full potential I played Gaana’s International top 50 hits back to back and here are my findings. These next-generation Bullets earphones work on all USB Type-C phones that we tried. Apart from OnePlus 6T, I have used them with Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (review), OnePlus 6 (review), Vivo Nex (review) and LG V30 + ThniQ (review). In some phones like OnePlus 6, you have to turn on OTG support first to route the audio via USB type C port.
