LG has unveiled a new range of Tone personal wearable speakers, headphones, and buds at the 2017 Consumer Electronics Show, with a surround sound model gaining the most attention.
The Tone Studio is an around neck, Bluetooth device that delivers 3D sound via four speakers – two full range on the top and two vibrating on the bottom. It has been designed in collaboration with surround sound experts at DTS. It has a Hi-Fi DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) and Dual Play. One can connect two TONE Studio wearable speakers and share the sound from a movie, or playlist.
TONE Free (model HBS-F110) is LG’s first wireless earbuds that charge whenever stored inside the neckband. The neckband also provides extra battery power and vibration alerts for incoming calls and text messages and provides a secure place to store the earbuds. It acts as a hands-free speaker phone.
Other models unveiled include TONE Infinim (model HBS-920) featuring LG’s Metal Layer Speaker Technology for clean, crisp sounds and TONE Ultra (model HBS-820), developed in collaboration with audio specialist JBL that features dual MEMS microphones for call clarity.
Michael Park, vice-president of Innovative Personal Devices Business Division at LG Electronics, said, “LG has a rich legacy of innovating in the wearable audio market, and our products have become the standard by which all other earphones are judged. We are committed to leading the way in this fast-moving market by developing exciting new products which appeal to every music-loving and convenience-seeking individual.”
