BBK subsidiary Vivo has launched a new wireless neckband headset in China. The Vivo Wireless Sports Headset 2 utilizes a neckband design which is cool but what should stand out more is the 12 hours of music playback which the battery under the hood can support. The product is super-affordable as it starts at just 119 yuan (US$ 16).
Since this is a relatively cheap product,
not much should be expected of it in terms of the configuration but that isn’t
the case. The neckband earphone is ultra-lightweight, weighing just 18 grams.
It adopts the exclusive horn ear design, which can closely fit the ear firmly
without discomfort. Since this is a sports earbud, it is essential that they
fit the ears firmly.
The built-in 11.2mm moving coil unit is
equipped with a polymer diaphragm. It also utilizes the Japanese Daikoku
copper-clad aluminum voice coil that enhances the high-frequency sound output.
The headset is also tuned by Vivo’s Golden Ear acoustic team to balance the
three frequencies. The wireless sports headset 2 uses a Bluetooth 5.0 chip, and
the audio delay during games can be reduced to 80ms at least. A
high-sensitivity microphone is designed at the in-line control position of the
headset, which supports noise reduction for calls, making daily calls and game
voices clearer.
As stated earlier, the earphones support
up to 12 hours of music playback on a full charge. Even if you run out of
battery, there is no cause for alarm as the earphones have a flash charging
function. A 10-minute charge can deliver up to 3 hours of music playback which
is awesome.
Furthermore, the new product adopts a
magnetic suction design, which will enter a dormant state when the suction is
removed. It also supports a one-key flash connection function meaning the
headset can be quickly connected when it is close to the phone. In addition,
the button can wake up the mobile phone voice assistant and quickly switch the
paired device.
