# Matchtastic Modaphones V-MODA Launches New Colored VIBE Earbuds By Hobbyist | Published 2007-02-07 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/v-moda-debuts-colored-vibe-earbuds References: [macnn](http://www.macnn.com/articles/07/02/01/colored.vibe.earbuds.debut/) It's widely accepted that those earbuds that come with a new iPod or Zune are usable only until you can pick up a better pair of headphones. And anyway, would you really want to be seen in public with such low-rent accessories? Of course not, which is why [V-MODA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vmoda-hexamove-pro-earbuds) has unveiled two new colors of its popular VIBE noise-isolating modaphone headphones. Available now in Red Roxx to match the iPod Nano RED Special Edition, and La Mocha to go with the [Microsoft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cmf-buds-2) Zune, these modaphones have a suggested retail price of $101. This is in part a tribute to the landmark Highway 101 that runs past V-MODA's [Hollywood Hills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whatshouldiwatchai) headquarters. The Red Roxx version is available exclusively at Apple.com and select Apple retail stores this month, but along with the La Mocha, you can pick it up everywhere else in March. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.2/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Multimedia](https://www.trendhunter.com/multimedia) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Colored Noise-isolating Headphones:** Opportunity for companies to release headphones in various vibrant colors to match popular electronic devices. - **Personalized Accessories:** Demand for customizable headphones that can be matched with specific devices and personal style. - **Exclusive Retail Partnerships:** Opportunity for brands to partner with retailers for exclusive product launches and distribution. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Consumer Electronics:** Innovation in the consumer electronics industry to design and manufacture personalized and vibrant headphones. - **Fashion and Accessories:** Opportunity for fashion and accessory brands to collaborate with headphone manufacturers for customized and branded products. - **Retail and E-commerce:** Retailers can explore exclusive partnerships with headphone manufacturers to attract customers and drive sales. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Skin Tone-Matching Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jbuds-go-air-tones.md) - [Springtime Earbud Color Launches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-beats-studio-buds.md) - [Lime-Colored Special Edition Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bang-olufsen-beoplay-ex-atelier-editions.md) - [Fashionable Long-Lasting Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mod-true.md) - [Flesh-Colored Earbud Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jlab-go-air-tones.md) - [Stylish Earbud Colorways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beats-1.md) - [Pastel-Hued Open Ear Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sony-linkbuds-clip-open.md) - [Spring-Ready Tonal Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-open.md) - [Luxury Flower-Designed Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Horizon-Earbuds.md)
