Key Features
Light as Air. Built for Motion.
Each earbud weighs 7.2 g +/- 0.2 g, helping reduce the burden of all-day listening while the open layout avoids pressure inside the ear canal.3 Inside the flexible hook, a 0.75 mm Ni-Ti alloy support frame blends firmness with the ability to adapt around the ear.4 Skin-friendly contact materials complete a design made to stay put through daily movement.
Bassphere Dual-Driver System
Two 11.8 mm high-sensitivity round speakers operate together inside each compact Bassphere unit. Their combined acoustic performance is described as comparable to a custom 16 mm round speaker, giving the open-ear format room for bass energy, fine detail, and an expansive presentation.5
DirectPitch Technology
DirectPitch manages where audio travels, concentrating more of it toward the listener instead of allowing it to spread outward. This approach helps preserve the situational awareness of an open design while making conversations, podcasts, and playlists more discreet.
Clear Calls in Busy Places
Two microphones work with AI-assisted noise reduction to distinguish your voice from surrounding commotion.6 The system supports clearer conversations in cafes, during workouts, and in other environments where background activity can compete with speech.
