Cleer Audio has launched Arc II, sequel to the Arc open-ear wireless earbuds, with a better battery life than before.
Like the original Arc, they sit on your ears rather than burrowing inside them to let you listen to your favourite music without zoning out your surrounding. It’s the opposite of noise-cancelling tech and comes handy when you want to stay mindful of ongoing traffic when you’re out.
The buds run for 8 hours- an hour longer than the previous pair- and a total of 35 hours run time when using the charging case before you plug it in for a charge.
The new model runs on 16.2 mm graphene neodymium drivers and Bluetooth 5.3 wireless connection.
IPX4 water-resistance makes them immune to rain and sweat, while touch controls let you change track and volume and answer calls.
The Cleer Arc II will launch in the first three months of the year, in graphite and warm grey finishes.
The original Cleer Arc wireless buds cost $229 but the price of the new pair has not been released yet.
