Noise-Blocking Earbuds

The Pioneer Rayz Plus Lightning Headphones Have HearThru Technology

— February 18, 2017 — Tech
Noise-cancelling headphones are often large and have an over-the-ear design, but the Pioneer Rayz Plus Lightning headphones aim to change this perception. Designed with a compact aesthetic, the Pioneer Rayz Plus headphones are specifically designed to be used with Apple devices, in particular the iPhone 7.

The Pioneer Rayz Plus headphones are outfitted with HearThru mode that works to ensure optimal audio performance while still enabling important noises to be filtered through (car honks, sirens etc.).

The Pioneer Rayz Plus Lightning headphones feature a built-in digital audio processor that ensure high-quality audio at all times. Because they headphones plug right into the Lightning port on the iPhone, the Pioneer Rayz Plus headphones never require charging to ensure they're always ready to use.
Trend Themes
1. Compact Noise-canceling Headphones - There is an opportunity for companies to develop smaller, more portable noise-cancelling headphones that utilize cutting-edge technology to effectively block out noise.
2. Hearthru Mode - There is potential for companies to create HearThru mode technology for headphones that allows important external noises to pass through while still maintaining high audio performance.
3. Lightning Port Headphones - There is a need for more headphones designed to connect directly to the Lightning port on Apple devices for more convenience and ease-of-use.
Industry Implications
1. Audio Technology - Companies in the audio technology industry have an opportunity to invest in and develop cutting-edge noise-cancelling technology for use in smaller, more portable headphones.
2. Consumer Electronics - Major players in the consumer electronics industry can capitalize on the trend towards more portable headphones by developing headphones with compatible technology to Apple devices that also have longer battery life and quicker charging capabilities.
3. Mobile Accessories - There is an opening for companies that manufacture mobile accessories to produce headphones that can be quickly charged by using the Lightning port on Apple devices for more seamless product integration.
