Doch das ist nicht der einzige Wegfall einer Funktion, denn auch die Fitness-Tracking-Funktion fällt raus, was sich aber positiv auf die Akkulaufzeit auswirken soll, diese soll bei The Headphone bei rund sechs Stunden liegen. 149 Dollar sollen für den kabellosen In-ear-Spaß fällig werden, ab November soll The Hedphone im Handel zu bekommen sein.
The Headphone can be connected to any Bluetooth device, including the much-anticipated, (hotly rumored to be) headphone-jack free iPhone 7. Users can switch between music tracks, take phone calls in challenging environments with Versant™ advanced voice technology, activate Audio Transparency and deliver voice commands, all without having to look at a screen. Three different FitTip sizes mean a comfortable, secure fit for all.
With up to 6 hours of wireless battery life per charge, The Headphone uses Knowles® balanced armature speakers to let users listen to their inspiration while on the run, in the car, or on the town. “We make listening products and we’re listening to our customers,” Hviid said. “The Headphone is Bragi’s answer to what happens when Apple and other mobile companies ditch the headphone-jack for good.” The Headphone will be available through the newly launched Bragi Shop (http://store.bragi.com) for a special presale price of $119 until November 1. Those who participated in the Bragi Dash Kickstarter will receive a $20 off coupon via email. Following the presale, The Headphone will retail for $149. Shipping is expected to begin in November.
