OnePlus Type-C Bullets Earphones Review

03 December 2018
Bullets worth dodging.

I just want to ask an honest answer from people here, but any response is highly appreciated.

I haven't had a phone with USB C or had no headphone jack. Since my current phone is Redmi 5 Plus, I was wondering if:
A - USB C wired headphones would work on my device when I use a micro USB to USB C adapter to plug it in, and if it does, then
B - Will it have better sound quality than through the output from the 3.5mm jack of my phone, assuming that the earphones are of the same exact sound quality properties (that they only differ in the plug they have)

I was thinking of taking the struggle because I feel like the output through the jack of my phone isn't loud enough to my preference, and I feel like I always have to set it to at least 40% to be adequately audible when I'm walking on the streets with not-so-loud outside noises (I only plug in one earbud, but I still expect it to be loud enough even below 40%).
Thanks for the responses and have a great day!

          Pros
          -Attractive design
          -Easy to use remote
          -Low price

          Cons
          -Mediocre audio quality for planned obsolescence
          -Can be uncomfortable for some
          -Battery draining compared to using 3.5mm jack as STANDARD

          In conclusion, listening through 3.5mm jack is WAY SUPERIOR than Type C. So OnePlus, this is a stu**d move to force them to use Type C headphones on OnePlus 6T for PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE. Should I also mention OnePlus NEVER HAD a microsd slot (ANOTHER PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE) as STANDARD since the beginning (apart from OnePlus X)??

            Never knew using type C earphones leaks more battery than via 3.5mm jack. That's really bad. Praying brands don't drop the jack, at least in the mid range

              xiaomi earphones please...

                AdnanAwes, 03 Dec 2018This is probably the first negative review I have read abou... moreRead carefully, it's about the new type c ones, and there are plenty of -ve reviews about them on the net!

                  This is probably the first negative review I have read about the Bullet Headphones.

                    Design wise, it looks like it uses a small driver like 8mm or 9mm. Yikes!
