Our Verdict
OnePlus Buds Truly Wireless
OnePlus Buds Pro Truly Wireless
The OnePlus Buds Pro are better in-ears than the OnePlus Buds. The Pro are more comfortable, stable, and have an ANC system, so they're able to block out more ambient noise. They also have a companion app, which offers features like button mapping. However, the original Buds have a better overall battery performance.
