LG recently launched the new Tone Free Wireless Earbuds that have a unique selling point -- a case that kills bacteria. This was made possible thanks to the UVnano charging case with bacteria-killing UV rays that are activated when the buds are charging. The brand states independent testing has shown the UV LED built into the case "reduces Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria on tip of the earbud closest to the ear canal."
Moreover, the LG Tone Free Wireless Earbuds boasts a comfort-focused fit with semi-open earbuds in three sizes that crafted to fit gently yet securely in your ear. The earphones boast six hours of music playtime per charge, and the custom case boasts 21 hours of battery life per charge. Running short on time? The new earphones have you covered -- with five minutes of charging you'll get one hour of playtime.
Lastly, the LG Tone Free Wireless Earbuds are water- and sweat-resistant up to IPX4 specifications, so you can sport them while working out or while walking in the rain.
