Beats Studio Buds just became a strong competitor for AirPods Pro. Which is odd, as they’re both made by Apple.

NBA superstar LeBron James shared an image of himself on Instagram wearing what could *just possibly* be the as-yet-unannounced Beats Studio Buds in white. The new, wireless Beats earbuds sound like they’re Beats’ version of Apple’s AirPods.
