As the company explains, its product is "everything you want in over-the-ear headphones: HD stereo sound, [noise cancellation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epic-lux-lab-edition), Bluetooth connectivity, mic for telephone calls, 15-hour battery life" and lastly, "sleek styling at an affordable price." Currently on [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chatbot-smart-headphones), the company is looking to garner enough funding so that it can produce a larger number of the affordable audio devices for resale. In addition to getting headphones for a great bargain, those who back the project will also be donating to charity, as Gangster claims that it will give a portion of its profits to organizations that help troubled youth. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 53% | Activity: 88% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Affordable High-quality Headphones:** 'Gangster' creates high-quality headphones with top of the line features at a low price point. - **Charitable Donations with Product Sales:** Gangster's pledge to donate a portion of profits to charity could inspire other companies to do the same. - **Crowdfunding for Product Launches:** Gangster's Kickstarter campaign shows the potential for using crowdfunding as a platform to launch and finance new products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Audio Equipment:** Companies in the audio equipment industry should take note of Gangster's ability to create affordable products with premium features. - **E-commerce:** Gangster's Kickstarter campaign showcases the opportunity for e-commerce retailers to sell affordable, high-quality products to consumers. - **Charitable Organizations:** Nonprofits focused on troubled youth or related causes could benefit from partnerships with companies like Gangster that donate a portion of their profits to charity. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Chatbot-Compatible Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chatbot-smart-headphones.md) - [Accessible Audiophile Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skullcandy-crusher-anc-2-wireless-headphones.md) - [Chic Affordable Wireless Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/affordable-wireless-headphones.md) - [Bone-Conduction Bluetooth Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boneconduction-bluetooth-headset.md) - [80s Retro-Inspired Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wesley-headphones.md) - [Low-Cost Pro-Grade Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raycon-everyday-pro.md) - [Streetwear-Branded Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/master-dynamic-x-bape.md) - [Glowing Equality-Promoting Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inequality-crusher.md) - [Sleek Enhanced Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haptix.md)
