I'm intrigued by Soohun Jung's design of these Dynamite Earbuds. Despite the advantages of [compact headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tozo), there don't seem to be enough varieties on the market yet to cater to everyone's comfort. What we have here is a unique reworking of the convenient [plug-in tip](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skullcandy-dime-evo) that makes for a much smaller speaker unit that still promises to stay in place.

Extending from the tiny earphone is a [retractable T-shaped arm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hmd-amped-buds) with a curved end. A spring pushes the bit outwards so that it can be positioned against your anthelix and able to conform to the unique shape and size of each of your ears. The Dynamite Earbuds are thus bulk-free, plus the spacer can be withdrawn when you're not listening to your smartphone or your media player.
