Where these two actually differ
- We flag Band material variability and Skin sensitization from sweat pooling on the Even Realities and not on the OnePlus.
- We flag Nickel leaching from plating, Plating degradation and metal particle exposure, Skin irritation from prolonged contact and Unknown alloy composition of plating on the OnePlus and not on the Even Realities.
- The Even Realities is titanium, stainless steel, sapphire crystal where the OnePlus is Titanium, rose gold plating, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
