Chinese electronics company Anker has released an upgraded version of its 'Soundcore Frames,' a new audio-enabled eyewear device that can be paired with a phone, tablet, or computer. The innovative frames allow users to participate in online meetings and take calls while on the go.
In addition, the upgraded version of the 'Soundcore Frames' has a 'Private Listening' mode that works to reduce audio leakage. In terms of standout specs, these stylishly designed audio glasses come equipped with robust drivers speakers, ultra-fast charging (10 minutes of charge delivers 1.5 hours of use time), Bluetooth connectivity, voice assistant compatibility, and on-ear wearing detection.
"Up till now, the emerging audio eyewear space has been pretty dull with only limited design choices," said CEO of Anker, Steven Yang, which is why 'Soundcore Frames' are being offered in multiple, fashionable designs.
