Engineered for Ear Geometry

The internal speakers are engineered to maximise sound output. This delivers clear, high-quality audio for music and calls. The binaural design provides stereo sound. In practice, this suits daily commuting or office use.

A built-in remote sits on the cable. It lets you adjust volume, control music and video playback, and answer or end calls. The control unit uses button inputs. So, you can manage audio without touching your device.
