OPPO has recently announced their first wireless stereo earbuds called – ‘O-Free’ based on the new QCC3026 SoC with Qualcomm TrueWireless Stereo, and will also be included with Find X phones.

Similarly, ‘the other phone manufacturers are intended to make their own set of earbuds and will most likely go to sale in the next half of 2018 at a commercial level bundled with their popular handsets’ the company has stated its press release.
