Urbanista launch the Urbanista Stockholm Plus True Wireless #Urbanista #StockholmPlus #TWS

Urbanista, the Swedish lifestyle audio brand, launches Stockholm Plus, the next generation of true wireless sound. Remaining truly wireless, the Stockholm Plus earphones are a new and improved update to the original and popular Stockholm earphones, which were launched in 2019 to challenge the true wireless market.

Urbanista Stockholm Plus in Titanium

Stockholm Plus are designed for life in motion and feature an increased total playtime of 20+ hours, intuitive volume & music touch controls and a redesigned charging case with a dedicated reset button and a LED battery indicator holding up to 5 charges – empowering you with maximum freedom on the go.

Priced at £69 / SEK799 / EUR69 / USD69 MSRP, Urbanista Stockholm Plus is available in five stylish colours and boasts full compatibility with iOS and Android devices.

RELOAD THE SOUND

Acoustic audio engineer Axel Grell, a sound industry expert, has worked on a number of products in the Urbanista portfolio, including redefining the sound for Stockholm Plus. Axel has developed the audio experience for Stockholm Plus with new drivers, chipset and microphones. The result is a sleek set of earphones that boast a stunning sound –  no matter if you’re seeking an immersive music experience or amazing audio clarity for your podcast. The carefully designed earphones are made for a secure and comfortable fit and for taking calls on the go, the microphones allow your voice to cut through loud and clear. Stockholm Plus features a noise-cancelling dual-microphone on both earbuds to create an optimal audio experience in any setting, making them ideal for both office and personal use.

 

RELOAD THE POWER

Stockholm Plus features an increased 20+ hours total playtime and a redesigned compact and lightweight charging case with an LED battery indicator holding up to 5 charges, setting you up with a maximum sense of wireless freedom on a long-haul flight or train ride so that the headphones fit into your lifestyle, not the other way around. The now splash-friendly IPX4 earphones work for you on the beach or during a rainy run, giving you the opportunity to enjoy your day without any disruptions. 

 

RELOAD THE CONTROL
Remain in charge with Stockholm Plus; its intuitive touch controls allow you to manage incoming calls and music by just the tap of your finger. Or, go hands-free with voice assistance, compatible with both Siri & Google Now. The latest in 5.0 Bluetooth connectivity means Stockholm Plus is compatible with your iOS, Android or Windows device.

Express your own sense of style – Stockholm Plus comes in a set of attractive colours, including Midnight Black, Fluffy Cloud, Rose Gold, Olive Green and Titanium. The product is available now at https://www.urbanista.com/stockholm-plus and authorised retailers globally.

Anders Andreen, Urbanista CEO, comments: “Although we celebrate our ten-year anniversary this year, we remain a young, agile and ambitious team who are always pushing for more and that is why we launched Stockholm Plus. The original Stockholm product proved to be a very successful venture into the true wireless market, and it made our business what it is today. Stockholm Plus comes along as the second generation and we are proud to say it is a smarter and more stylish update to the original.”

Review – The Jam Athlete TWS earbuds. #JamAudio #TWS #Tech

If you are on the lookout for some new True Wireless and are on a budget these are something to check out and do a great job at the price they come in at and are ideal for fitness folk, One thing that is a staple for fitness gurus is having true wireless that will not budge and these certainly do not move after my testing.

When it comes to sound they do a decent job too and have all the controls at your fingertips with a clicky button rather than one you tap which works best for me but a touch sensitive area is no different either for me. The design and fit is spot on and there is a selection of tips to get that right fit that will give you some isolation. The sound is good overall and well balanced not the best in the world but for the price you pay here you really cant complain,they sound good overall on calls and using the likes of netflix and you tube with no lag latency noticed.  Battery life is also decent here too and you get around 6 hours of use in total but overall 30 with the case on the go which is pretty good. See the first look of the EXEC and ATHLETE

Review – The Jam Audio EXEC True Wireless earbuds. #JamAudio #TWS #Tech

The Jam Audio Exec are an affordable pair of TWS earbuds with the common stem on board which suits some people, Some folk dislike the stem approach but I do not really mind once they sound good,the stems are getting shorter having said that since the inception of the overpriced airpods and there is real value to be had these days buying true wireless and these are pair that fit right in.

These come in a circular puc style case which is nice and it can open either side by the swivel lid on top,these are a touch based approach too which is an issue for some as they prefer a button just like the ATHLETE but they are easy to adopt to and you will be able to execute your controls in no time.

We go through all the motions in the video review below, you get decent battery life in these too over the ATHLETE version which is ideal for commuters and so on and of course you get more juice from the case provided which fits in any pocket. Sound is good in general as a whole and pretty much the same as the ATHLETE version with a nice bass tone and decent highs,lows and mids for the price they come in at, if it is your first pair of TWS you will not be disappointed with no lag latency noticed during my testing either.

PRODUCT FEATURES

  • 8+ hours of playtime, 32+ hours total with charging case
  • Dual microphones for background noise reduction and call clarity
  • IPX4 rating for sweat-proof and weather-resistant design
  • Intelligent tap touch controls
  • Micro USB charging
  • Three size ear tips (S, M, L)
  • Bluetooth® 5.0
  • SKU: HX-EP625
  • RRP £69.99
