The Gravity Headphones are a conceptual accessory designed by Kyumin Ha that add an element of artistry to the tech device by allowing the music earbuds to stand upright when not in use. This allows the headphones to remain on display, as a way to increase the presence of the device beyond its initial usage.

The headphones feature a simplistic and modular design complete with two rounded ear panels that provide [noise-cancelling sound quality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oscene-ear) and an angular headband that wraps slightly above the head. This allows the wearer's hair to not be crimped or ruffled by the headset while maintaining a comfortable fit. When not in use, the [headphones are stored upright](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnetic-charging-stand) maintaining the shape of the accessory. The earbuds are available in a variety of bright colors from red to blue.
