Bang & Olufsen, the premium brand that
brings us all sorts of expensive audio products, has just revealed a pair of
wireless earbuds – the Beoplay E8 Sports. Unsurprisingly, they look premium and
are quite pricy at no less than US$ 350.
The Beoplay E8 Sport offer around 7 hours
of battery life, but thanks to the charging case, you'll be able to get up to
30 hours. Equally important is the fact that the earbuds are waterproof down to
one meter for 30 minutes (IP57 certification) and sweat resistant.
The earbuds benefit from the latest
Bluetooth 5.1 and Qualcomm aptX technologies. It's standard procedure for
designers to add touch controls to earbuds and Beoplay E8 Sport are no
exception. You'll be able to take calls, play and stop music, or even activate
B&O's Transparency Mode when you need to hear what's happening around you.
The Beoplay E8 Sport earphones feature
four built-in mics for a state-of-the-art noise-canceling experience. The
earbuds come with a charging case with built-in wireless charging, but a
charging pad is available for purchase separately for US$ 125. Bang &
Olufsen's new premium earbuds will start shipping on July 9.
