        The USonic earbuds have a USB C port at the end, making the adapters useless because its earbuds are one of the best out there. Why would I need a USB OTG anyway?

              No adapter?
              That means HTC is starting the USB C port trend now.
              I wonder if it sounds better than the rest of the competition. :|
