OnePlus Buds, looking like Air Buds.

Now, I'm very biased, however looking at the new OnePlus buds compared to AirPod pros and pixel bud twos, they look very similar to AirPods with the stem which I'm not so sure I like. I know it's all user preference but I figured I'd post a question as to what people think about them here?

I don't like that stem look either. Makes them look like you just had an ear operation and they're there to drain fluids from your ears.

Yep yep exactly! I mean furthermore, There are a crap ton of companies that want to copy the design language of AirPods with the stem. I don't know why. They think it looks fashionable.. also, a lot of companies feel the need to copy Apple because of the huge success they've had. I don't agree. I like the look of the pixel buds. There's no STEM yet they still have several microphones on it, the people I'm talking to on the other end have never complained about voice quality, and I'm sorry, but I just think that the OnePlus buds look cheap. And the case is a little bit bigger than the pixel buds, the AirPod pros.

I'll be honest though, one of the things that I can't wait for In a few weeks from Google, for the pixel buds, is the feature drop, and maintenance updates!
