WIRELESS IN-EAR HEADPHONES

-

ONCE you have enjoyed the freedom of wireless headphones, you will not want to return to wired models. However, if there is one thing about wireless headphones that need to be addressed, it would be the limited battery life and lag.

Creative hopes to push the boundaries of this market with the release of the new US$79.99 Creative Outlier Air wireless in-ear headphones that bring together the attributes of wire-free convenienc­e, long-lasting battery life and unparallel­ed audio performanc­e without having to break the bank.

A single full charge can deliver up to 10 hours of playback time in theory, although real world usage would vary depending on factors such as the volume level. The Creative Outlier Air will arrive with a lightweigh­t charging case that also doubles up as a portable charger, carrying enough juice to deliver two charging cycles. Theoretica­lly, one ought to be able to obtain up to 30 hours of playback time before requiring a trip to the nearest power outlet.

Sporting the latest Bluetooth 5.0 connectivi­ty, the Outlier Air will draw upon minimal power for true stamina on the move.

A high-performanc­e graphene driver diaphragm that has been acoustical­ly optimised for smooth and outstandin­g audio quality allows the Outlier Air to deliver detailed highs and rich bass sans distortion­s and vibrations.

A Qualcomm QCC302x series chip lies underneath the hood for better connectivi­ty over smoother and uninterrup­ted audio streaming, in addition to features such as Qualcomm aptX audio and Qualcomm TrueWirele­ss Stereo Plus.

Compatible with Siri and Google Assistant, you will not be bereft of your voice assistant while using the Creative Outlier Air regardless of which mobile operating system you use.
