Meizu‘s upcoming Blue Charm headphone was spotted
recently in leaked pictures, with a translucent design. That same headset has
been spotted again on the website of world-renowned Austrian luxury crystals
designer Swarovski. The flagship looking headset is said to have a price tag of
6,888 Yuan. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find the product on our extensive search
of Swarovski’s official China website.
That doesn’t in anyway mean the supposed listing isn’t
true, as the screenshot looks like Swarovski’s website. The Blue Charm
headphone render on the product page points at a headset with crystals on the
cone and the chord. Luxury products come with a price and the Blue Charm
headset isn’t different as it is listed with a price of 6,888 Yuan. From the
look of things, the new Swarovski special edition may be released before the
normal version is launched. Another thing to note is that the new Charm Blue
logo which is on the product page. This sort of authenticates earlier rumours
that Meizu is rebranding its Blue Charm division.
Incidentally, the Meizu Swarovski custom Blue Charm
headphones have an identical design with SHURE’s SE846 headphones which is also
priced at 6,888 Yuan. However, SHURE’s own headset would likely have a powerful
hardware and output capability to hold for the high price tag. There is still
no indication as to when Meizu will release the much-anticipated Blue Charm
headset.
