Tranya have just dropped a new product onto their portfolio of tech and it is geared towards the fitness folk and much more and they are the all new X5 sports earbuds. Well these do wrap around the ears giving you a better secure fit and are packed with features for the fitness enthusiast only that there is more on offer when it comes to the spec sheet for those who are into the specs.

Just over year ago a pair of headphones was introduced that could charge by solar power and it grabbed people’s attention it must be said and some even snubbed the idea until they seen it first hand from me with the Urbanista Los Angeles headphones and still up till now I have not seen any mainstream headphone/earbud manufacturer come up with an alternative and the same thing has happened again after showing the new Urbanista Phoenix off.
Now Urbanista has brought the same powerfoyle technology to their earbuds which makes for a very interesting path forward with this technology and hopefully more will adopt it in the future.
Urbanista Phoenix is compatible with the Urbanista mobile companion app that puts you in complete control of your audio experience. The Urbanista app, available on Apple App Store and Google Play Store, gives you deep customisation options, including EQ controls to adjust the audio to meet your taste. The companion app also provides information on how to get the most out of the product’s playtime, including visual indications of solar charge levels and usage, and the option to customise the earphones controls and voice assistant.
Tuomas Lonka, Urbanista’s Brand and Marketing Director, comments: “It’s a privilege to continue on this path of innovation together with Exeger and use the latest in solar cell technology to bring ground-breaking audio products to market. Our Los Angeles self-charging headphones were so well received by customers and consumers alike, that we knew right away that we wanted to apply this futuristic way of consuming audio to a true wireless design. Urbanista Phoenix really is a market leading product, and we are excited to see how these shape the future of our listening experiences in years to come.”

Creative recently announced two pairs of bone conduction headphones which is now becoming a popular trend and for the better we have tested quite a few pairs over the last year or so and I am looking forward to seeing how creative have done here with the latest two headsets on offer.
Today we take a first look and hands on of the new bone conduction headphones which look identical but one has more to offer hence the name Pro and if you have any questions feel free to ask below or on our YouTube channel and we will gladly answer them.
The use of bone conduction technology revolves around transducers on the headphones, which, through vibrations on the user’s cheekbones, transmit sound waves into the inner ears. With their ears freed up from in-ear or over-ear headphones, users feel safer through heightened environmental awareness while enjoying high-quality acoustics – this is especially useful for joggers or cyclists on busy streets, or gym enthusiasts who like to chat with their workout buddies.
The Outlier Free Pro stands out even more with its 8GB (stores 2,000 MP3 songs) built-in music player (also compatible with FLAC, WAV and APE file formats); it enables users to enjoy their favorite tunes without the need to carry their mobile phones. Thanks to its IPX8 rating (the highest waterproof rating for water immersion), swimmers can even swim underwater in the pool.
Bluetooth 5.3, delivering robust connections for up to 2 Bluetooth devices at a time. There is also a low-latency mode to minimize audio-visual lag for movie-watching; users have the added convenience with a built-in microphone for calls, and Siri / Google Assistant support. Lightweight silicone and titanium memory alloy are used to construct the Outlier Free Pro, translating to all-day comfort and fit.
Soundpeats is a well known brand that delivers great quality earbuds at a cost effective price and they have sent us two new pairs for us to check out and a full real hands on review will be coming soon with many more earbuds and other tech that is now sitting on my desk. The twp pairs today in question is the Air Deluxe HS and Mini Pro HS earbuds one being your standard earbud and one with a stem so something for both interested parties here when it comes to style and looks.
Having a quick first look myself I like both designs here and the cases in particular are really nice with both having a matt finish and fingerprint free and easy on your pocket too when it comes to size. But how will they sound? We will find out soon enough after some thorough testing as we do test the biggest range of earbuds in Ireland with a real hands on look rather than stock image reports.

The latest new tech to drop into techbuzz is a collaboration between Skullcandy and Doritos edition which of course is limited and will start shipping next month and we have been lucky to get our hands on them early to check them out, this is not the first time Skullcandy have done a collaboration and we hope to see more down the road and cast your mind back to last October when they announced a collaboration with Capcom and check out our review of the Limited edition Street fighter headset.
Not much has changed here but the branding which is stansoutish to say the least which I like over the neutral colours we see everyday and with the collaboration it makes it that bit more special and of course been a limited run.
“Skullcandy and self-expression are synonymous and this drop is no different. Together with Doritos, we’re adding a little flavour to a space traditionally saturated with muted colourways, allowing gamers to stand out from the competition,” said Derek Steiner, Director of Global Brand Partnerships, Skullcandy. “The SLYR and Dime 2 are the ideal products for this collab, both accessible and packed with flavour so gamers can boldly be themselves. The duo provides the best of both worlds – SLYR for gaming at home and Dime 2 for on-the-go mobile sessions.”
If you want to know anymore ask as always and we will gladly answer you and we will test them out over the coming weeks given there is more aesthetics that has changed here we will test them out and check the full unboxing video below for all the details. The limited-edition Skullcandy x Doritos are available now for purchase exclusively on Skullcandy.com and will ship mid-February. Overall my first impressions so far are they stand out and are loud and sound as good as their original models.
Skullcandy Supreme Sound – Unique audio-tuning process enables users to maximize the depth and detail of each sound
Multi-Platform Connectivity – Crystal clear audio on PC, Playstation, Switch and Xbox, levelling-up
the listening experience on any platform. And with the 3.5mm audio cable, SLYR is the definition of ‘plug and play’

Mute & Volume Control – Easy-to-reach, on-board controls enable gamers to quickly mute and adjust volume without gameplay interference
Durable, Lightweight Design – Constructed from tough, lightweight materials including head-conforming memory-foam ear cushions wrapped in moisture-wicking and breathable material for all-day comfort
Creative recently announced their newest earbuds to the world called the Zen Air wireless earbuds and these look impressive for the price your pay with all the features given and access to their app which is not seen often at this price point which only mirrors what I have been saying for some time now with the cost to performance ratio, but how will these sound is what the big question will be so stick around for a full hands on review soon as usual. These are small and light and come in a glossy white case on our review unit and come with ANC and wireless charging so out of the box they tick all the boxes for me and we look forward to testing these out.

Tune Out the World
Creative Zen Air offers users a better listening experience with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) that can help filter out unwanted background noises so users can stay focused – be it at the office during an important conference call or listening to their favorite beats on the go without any interruptions.
With a simple tap of the earbuds, users can easily switch to the Ambient Mode to let just the right amount of surrounding sound in, which works perfectly when running errands or while hiking on a busy trail.
Small but Mighty
The Creative Zen Air weighs next to nothing at merely 46g, but it can deliver a hefty audio punch with 10 mm Neodymium drivers that boast clear high and well-balanced mids to produce high-quality audio performance that greatly exceeds its price point.
It is also fitted with 4 microphones that offer better voice pick-up to ensure clearer communication so users can experience hassle-free and uninterrupted calls anytime, anywhere.
On top of that, the latest true wireless earbuds can offer up to 18 hours of battery life with up to 6 hours of playtime on a single charge to meet the user’s every audio need – whether for commuting, exercising or just out for a short errand. For a fuss-free and quick charge, users can simply place the charging case on a Qi-compatible wireless charging pad. Together with Bluetooth® 5.0 connectivity and a certified IPX4 sweatproof rating, the Creative Zen Air ticks all the right boxes to make it the perfect everyday audio companion.
