The 'Otowahr TrueSound©️ MEMS' speaker is a newly introduced component for [wireless earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galaxy-buds4-pro). Featuring an electromagnetic planar magnetic driver scaled down to an exceptionally small 3.5-millimeter diameter, the core innovation of this technology is the adaptation of [planar magnetic transducer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neo-hybrid) principles — typically associated with large, high-fidelity headphones — into a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) format suitable for miniature wearable audio devices.

The design of the Otowahr TrueSound©️ MEMS speaker utilizes a flat diaphragm within a uniform magnetic field, which the company claims results in more linear movement and [lower distortion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kef-muo) compared to the traditional moving coil drivers commonly found in earbuds. The company is able to achieve a refined acoustic performance without a significant increase in power consumption, thereby aiming to preserve battery life in the final product.
