Apple recently released new Beats Studio Buds that are targeted more universally at users beyond Apple's ecosystem, boasting decent sound quality but no H1 or W1 chip for seamless pairing on both iOS and Android. From our review:
Now, I don't self-identify as an audiophile, and I clearly value convenience as much as I do quality, or I'd be plugging wired into a DAC and carrying it all around in a Ghostbusters-style backpack behind me. But they sound crisp and clean even at higher volume levels and as good as almost any wireless headset I've ever used… with the exception of probably the AirPods Pro and certainly the AirPods Max.
Totally wireless from Beats
Beats Studio Buds feature active noise cancellation, USB-C charging, choice of white, black, or red, and up to 8 hours of battery life.
