Sennheiser introduces the SPORT True Wireless earbuds

SPORT True Wireless delivers an exceptional sound experience thanks to Sennheiser’s TrueResponse transducer. Designed and engineered in Germany, the acoustic system is powered by a unique 7mm dynamic driver that delivers full bass and superior clarity without distortion – even at high volume. The SPORT True Wireless also puts athletes in control of how they experience sound and perceive their surroundings. The unique Adaptable Acoustic feature allows athletes to choose either open or closed ear adapters and adjust EQ settings for the perfect custom training sound.

The open ear adapters in combination with the Aware EQ settings help to reduce body-borne noise and allow some outside sounds to enter for better situational awareness. In this mode, runners hear fewer distracting noises such as their own heartbeat or footsteps and more of their surroundings, blending their favourite exercise playlist with sounds of nature or the city while improving awareness. Those who prefer their own music in noisy gyms and don’t want to be distracted by the busy environment will find peace of mind with the closed ear adapter and Focus EQ settings.

In addition to the Sennheiser Smart Control App’s Focus and Aware EQ settings, athletes can make fully customisable presets for their listening experience via the Sound Check feature. The intuitive touch controls of the SPORT True Wireless let users personalise the sound to their preferences and facilitate access to audio navigation and voice assistants. Bluetooth 5.2 compatibility and support for audio codecs like SBC, AAC and aptX also make it easy to stay connected to mobile devices, smartwatches, smart TVs, and connected fitness devices for a seamless audio experience.

 

 

A secure fit that can be counted on
“Every movement during sports is a challenge for your earbuds fit to keep delivering great sound. For anyone who likes to listen to music while exercising, it’s important to be able to concentrate fully on the sport without fear of the earbuds slipping out of place. As all ears are unique in shape and size ‘one fits all’ is not secure, so we have focused on providing a fully customisable solution for maximum wearing comfort and a secure fit.” says David Holm, Sennheiser Sports Product Manager.

The ergonomic design of the SPORT True Wireless was developed precisely for this purpose. The earbuds can be customised with a choice of ear adapters in three sizes and four different ear fins to withstand any workout. With an IP54 rating, the SPORT True Wireless is dust and splash resistant and can also easily withstand sweat, runs in the rain, and even workouts at the beach.

Runs longer than you can
The SPORT True Wireless doesn’t just stand up to the physical challenges. With a battery life of 9 hours, and another 18 hours with the charging case, it offers uncompromising performance to go the distance.

Pricing and availability
The Sennheiser SPORT True Wireless can be pre-ordered starting now and will be available on May 3, 2022, with an MSRP of 119.99 GBP/129.90 EUR.

Sennheiser launches the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3

The multi-award-winning MOMENTUM series from Sennheiser introduces a new member to the family. The MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 set new standards when it comes to sound quality, adaptive noise cancellation (ANC), and wearing comfort. Encased in a design that was defined using high-quality materials and precise workmanship, the earbuds offer a range of technologies and features that take the listening experience to a new level.

“Our MOMENTUM series continuously succeeds in redefining the boundaries of possibility,” said Frank Foppe, Sennheiser True Wireless Product Manager. “The MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 build on a powerful heritage. With the Sennheiser Signature Sound, TrueResponse technology, next-level adaptive noise cancellation and an even better fit, these earbuds are the natural successor of the MOMENTUM series.”  

A superior sound experience 
Just like its predecessors, the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 delivers outstanding sound quality, centred around Sennheiser’s True Response transducer. Based on dynamic 7mm drivers manufactured in Germany, it produces an immersive stereo sound with deep bass, natural mids and detailed highs. The new Sound Personalisation feature provides an enhanced sound experience via a guided listening test to setup the perfect sound for each user’s individual hearing. In addition, the Smart Control App offers a choice of presets and an equaliser feature to tailor the sound to the user’s taste.

Since the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 was created for everyday life on-the-go, Sennheiser has specifically improved the earbuds with Adaptive Noise Cancellation which automatically adjusts to your environment. The system continuously observes ambient noise to suppress it in real time. Users who want to be aware of their surroundings to hear things such as train announcements, for example, can deactivate the noise cancellation at the touch of a button, or switch to transparency mode.

For the best possible synchronisation between audio and visual content, the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 support a wide range of audio codecs such as AAC, SBC and aptX™ Adaptive, which reduce latency to a minimum. In addition, each earbud now features three microphones that promote crystal-clear call quality, enabling smooth and easy-to-follow video calls. The intuitive touch controls of the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3, which users can tailor to their personal preferences, make it easy to navigate the audio and access voice assistants.

Exceptional design and extraordinary comfort
Winner of a 2022 Red Dot Design Award, the new stylish and futuristic ergonomic design enables a long-lasting comfortable fit. The MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 also comes with several silicone pads in different sizes that are designed to fit all ear shapes and sizes. Thanks to its IPX4-certified splash-resistant casing, the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 is made for almost any adventure. Whether it’s running in the rain or a strenuous fitness session, the new Sennheiser earbuds deliver a top-class listening experience even under adverse conditions.

No matter where users of the new MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 may be, a battery life of seven hours – which can be extended to 28 hours using the case – means that users no longer have to worry about finding a power source nearby. And because the high-quality case supports wireless charging, the process itself is easy as it can be.

Pricing and availability
The Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 is now available for pre-order, and will be available from 10th May 2022 with a RRP of £219.99 / €249.90 in black, white and graphite.

Tech Review – S12 true Wireless earbuds that cost just 20 euro

The earbuds game is oversaturated a long time now and the cost to performance ratio has also got much better for the consumer which means better deals for those in the market for new earbuds and it can only get better, with so many players in the market now there is plenty of choice and some might be a risk especially imports and copies which we see at petrol stations and cheap tech stores throughout the country.

We have been testing an affordable pair which can be bought on Amazon are the S12 earbuds and deliver across the board there is no app no wireless charging and no auto play and pause but everything else you need is present such as skip and reverse tracks play and pause volume up and down and you have access to your voice assistant too all of which are considered the basics these days.

The case they come in is also quite nice too and has a matt finish and hold the earbuds securely and has a USB-C port for charging and a pairing button, the earbuds themselves are a clean design and do look similar to airpods which would not be a new thing these days and have a touch area that works quite well in comparison to other out there I have tried out.

LHBD S12 earbuds techbuzzireland

When it comes to sound they are loud and punchy with great bass too so for the bass fans these are a must if you want to purchase a cheap pair of earbuds, highs lows and mids where fine and overall really these are quite good for the small price you pay and they look clean and fit quite well too, battery life might be on the lower end of the norm but what you get for your money you can’t really give out at all. Check out the video review for more and how to operate the S12 earbuds and stay tuned for more real hands on tech reviews where stock images don’t cut it.

Dóttir Launches Ultra-Competitive Sports-focused Headphones, Designed by CrossFit Champions

Dóttir introduces its new line of sports-focused true wireless headphones, expressly designed to withstand the rigors of elite sports competition. The new headphones take the sport headphone market to new heights, boasting innovative features specifically selected by two training partners and competitors — both two-time winners of the title “World’s Fittest Woman” at the CrossFit Games Katrin Davidsdottir and Annie Thorisdottir. Dóttir Freedom On-Grid earphones have been awarded the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2021 and are designed for users to focus, to stay ahead of their own game.

Designed by Crossfit champions and manufactured to withstand even the most high-intensity training on land or in water, Dóttir Freedom On-Grid earphones are available in White or Ash Grey and are ideal for any music lover looking for hours of noise free-listening — wherever their journey may lead.

Music That Will Move You

Dóttir began as an idea between longtime friends Katrin Davidsdottir and Annie Thorisdottir, both of whom are two-time female champions and regular top contenders at the Crossfit Games. Their goal with Dóttir was to create a pair of headphones that would allow athletes to train freely without distraction, while remaining inspired by the music they love.

With a packed feature set in a rugged form factor, Dóttir features Active Noise Canceling technology, a fully waterproof construction and an ergonomic, wraparound design that ensures the headphone stays in place, add to this a total playtime of up to 72 hours with a wireless charging case that provides up to five additional charges, and you have a clear winner and dependable companion.

“The brand started out as an idea between two best friends who push each other to be some of the top performing athletes in the world. We are proud to bring a brand to market that supports female empowerment and equality as an extension of its founders’ personal values,” said Gisli Gudmundsson, Dóttir Product Manager. “Their Icelandic roots have had a large influence on their core values and the Dóttir brand as a whole. Both Katrin and Annie have fought to reach the top of their respective field, and Dóttir Freedom On-Grid earphones are designed by athletes, for anyone striving to stay ahead of their own game.”

Having both received the title of “World’s Fittest Woman” during both of their repeat consecutive wins at the CrossFit Games Women’s Championship, Katrin Davidsdottir and Annie Thorisdottir are an inspiration to countless women around the world.

“In 2011, Annie won the CrossFit Games, and CrossFit blew up in Iceland,” Katrin said.

“Suddenly everyone is doing CrossFit. It’s all over the news, and all over the media, and they’re showing you at the CrossFit Games. I didn’t want to go back to track and decided ‘I want to do that.’ So, I went to boot camp where Annie used to train, because I just wanted to do what Annie had done. When I showed up to my first foundation class, Annie walked in to teach it! It’s fun to look back, now, because I looked up to Annie, and now we’re best friends.”

“As Katrin continued on with CrossFit, I could see that she was competitive and driven,” Annie said. “I could see myself in her, a little. Then I remember seeing her do a training workout, and she being super aggressive, and deciding: I need to push her to compete. I need to see what she can do.”

“We have been looking for a headphone to withstand the demands of our training schedule for some time. We haven’t found one yet that has the battery life, waterproofing or fit that complements our training style and so we decided to design and launch our own. Dóttir Freedom On Grid has all the features and considerations that we feel will complement anyone who is active, no matter what your sport,” comments Katrin and Annie.

Their relationship founded on inspiration, mutual admiration and a competitive spirit, Katrin and Annie have continued to push one another to meet their training goals and achieve their best performance each year they compete in the CrossFit games. With Dóttir, the CrossFit champions extend these core values of their mutual friendship to empower females across the globe to devote their time, focus and willpower to the attainment of their dreams.

Dóttir Freedom On-Grid headphones are now available for pre-order at www.dottiraudio.com. Priced at £120/$150.

New Jabra Hearing Enhancement Earbuds Unveiled

GN, the global leader in intelligent audio solutions, announces the availability of the first-of-its-kind innovative Jabra Enhance™ Plus earbuds engineered for hearing enhancement in the US on February 25th. It is an ambition to launch Jabra Enhance Plus in further markets internationally, as local regulations develop. Any new markets will be communicated when relevant.

Jabra Enhance Plus combines the convenience and design of true wireless earbuds with advanced hearing technology to address the needs of millions with mild-to-moderate hearing loss, helping them take the first steps on their hearing health journey.

Jabra Enhance Plus comes in a miniaturised earbud design, 40% smaller than leading small true wireless earbuds in the market. The earbuds are designed with cutting-edge personalisation technology, enabling individualised situational hearing enhancement during real-life conversations, and includes high-quality calls and music quality. They will provide hearing help for users in a comfortable design that will be the smallest of its kind in the market. The stylish design combines organic and modern lines, creating a desirable look both in and out of the ear. And with leading battery life of 10 hours on a single charge, it is a reliable partner for challenging hearing situations. The product is water and dust resistant. The simple setup through the Jabra Enhance app allows for a great experience from the start.

Jabra Enhance Plus has been developed according to the highest standards of quality and has been 510(k)-cleared with the FDA under the self-fit hearing aid regulation. The new earbuds will be available from February 25 this year in select Hearing Care clinics across the US with a recommended retail price of 799 USD.

Anticipating the OTC regulation

Today, more than 50 million American adults live with some level of untreated hearing loss. This makes hearing loss one of the most prevalent and largest untreated health conditions in the US. In October 2021, the FDA released a draft regulation to introduce a new Over-The-Counter (OTC) Hearing Aid category. This will allow greater access and more affordable hearing treatment options.

“GN welcomes the intention of increasing awareness and treatment of hearing loss to improving people’s quality of life through the power of sound. With Jabra Enhance Plus, more people will have a solution that has been specifically tailored to their needs and lifestyle,” says Gitte Aabo, CEO of GN Hearing.

“When the new OTC regulation comes into effect, we look forward to be there to help people with solutions that provide better situational hearing as well as music and calls in modern and stylish designs”, says René Svendsen-Tune, CEO at Jabra.

Available in select Hearing Care Clinics across the US from February 25th.
