 Hey guys Thunder E here and welcome to of course another fun battle vid. Now this time is with the brand new OnePlus Buds that have been announced this week and of course the Galaxy Buds Plus to find out where they actually stack up. So let's jump right in. Now the OnePlus Buds are the first two wireless Buds from OnePlus. We've been waiting for these for a while, they're finally here we've seen through rumors and the device comes in a couple of colors. Now the OnePlus Buds either come in white, of course you got the the Nord blue and you've got a gray variant. Now just let you guys know if you're in the US the Nord blue will not be coming to the US immediately at least at this time. We know that's just a global launch. So we get the white and the gray here in the US. Anyway that being said though what you have is something that has a you know peg-like shape in terms of a case and now the case does give you about 30 hours of battery life and you've got USB type-c charging here and this is one of the things that OnePlus has done well with this where normally with most two wireless Buds like even the Galaxy Buds Plus you do get with 10 minutes of charge you get about an hour of battery life. Well with the OnePlus Buds with 10 minutes of charge because he has warp charging you get 10 hours of battery life. That is actually truly impressive so one of the nicest things I like about it is the fact that you've got a lot of juice with that and the case with the earbuds I'll have a total of about 30 hours of battery life so we understand that there. Now in terms of the fit and the look well they've got that similar styling to the original AirPods so of course this will fit certain people they do have touch controls on the side of either buds so you can actually control your music play the you know skip forward or back that kind of functionality and it also have support for Dolby Atmos as well through of course your device like the OnePlus Nord itself. Now in terms of some of the functionality as compared to the Galaxy Buds let's start off of course with the first thing battery life which I mentioned. So battery life is 30 hours in total while the Galaxy Buds are 22 hours which is clearly beats it and of course the OnePlus Buds also have that benefit of 10 minutes of charge giving you 10 hours 10 hours of usage compared to one hour of usage on the Galaxy Buds. So that's a big win for the OnePlus Buds. Now the next thing of course is fit and use so with the OnePlus Buds you've got things you know you've got these buds that fit this way now when I shake my head they kind of stay but they're hanging out really at the edge of my ear and it doesn't fall out but what happens when I use them is when I laugh or I talk a lot they start sliding off and they don't necessarily fit. For me these things don't fit well they never have this design is just something it doesn't fit well for me and I know for a lot of people plus they also hurt my ears quite a bit after a short period of time so these are not a pair that I can wear for a long period of time. Now I know there are people who can wear them for a while but for me it just doesn't work in comparison to the Galaxy Buds which have you know of course the soft silicone tips and a much more comfortable fit that allows me to wear this for a longer period of time so that's just something to put so in terms of fit the Galaxy Buds definitely win on that direction. Now let's move over of course to the microphones you've got microphones built into these and I have to say though both of them do a really good job with their microphones the OnePlus Buds have some really soft mics so you can have good phone calls that part is actually pretty good and in comparison to the Galaxy Buds plus it's pretty close I will give the edge to the Galaxy Buds plus especially with just the noise canceling mics but overall I think both of them are good right there with the microphones. Now of course the big kicker as well is of course audio how good they sound so in comparison the OnePlus Buds have a lot of bass if you're bass friendly you like that that's really nice but because these do not fit entirely into my ear I lose a lot of the sound I lose a lot of the depth of music so of course my highs don't reach as much you know it can get loud which is which is nice but I don't get a lot of the sound reverberation from this in terms of audio quality now in comparison with the Galaxy Buds Galaxy Buds do a really good job we know that quite well the fit of course gives you some really good passive isolation as well with this so you get a lot of the audio coming in the highs are good the mids are good the lows are of course a little lower because this doesn't really push up as much bass but of course you do have the app to tune in the EQs for you here now you know in terms of just little extras you have here is that you know the Galaxy Buds has wireless charging but of course there's difference in price the Galaxy Buds their price that about 139 you can get them cheaper about 116 I've seen recently Amazon the OnePlus Buds are $79 so they are much cheaper alternative and yeah if I were to go ahead and pick a winner I still will go with the Galaxy Buds but here's the thing though I think OnePlus has done a really good job with the OnePlus Buds in terms of pricing and where it stands now for me the fit just does not work because they hurt my ears and they don't stay in as much so I really have to force them in to make sure that they stay and it starts hurting you know that kind of thing but in terms of other quality it's good in terms of the microphone it's really solid there battery life is pretty good at 30 hours and also that quick charging capability of giving you 10 minutes of charge to 10 hours of playtime also shows now I would love to see improvements from OnePlus change the design please I think this is pretty old I'm not sure why brands still do this and use this design but please change the design also maybe add an application so we can customize the audio as well but it's a very good first start and if you're looking to pick up something cheaper the OnePlus Buds might be for you and again if this design fits you in your ears you have no issues then by all means go for it so anyway guys there you have it guys that is the OnePlus Buds versus the Galaxy Buds Plus if you have any questions any comments let me know otherwise don't forget to like share subscribe and always enjoy your entertainment
