Edifier Launches NeoBuds Wireless Earbuds With Planar Magnetic Drivers
The new Edifier NeoBuds Planar use the latest planar magnetic driver technology for high-quality ... More sound.
Premium audio brand Edifier has just announced the launch of its NeoBuds Planar wireless earbuds. These flagship wireless earbuds are equipped with high-end planar magnetic drivers and featuring an Advanced Noise Cancelation function.
The NeoBuds Planar earbuds are equipped with six high-sensitivity microphones and Qualcomm aptX Voice for clearer speech pickup when using the earbuds for phone calls or video conferencing. A full charge of the NeoBuds storage case can provide up to 30 hours of total playtime from the onboard rechargeable batteries.
Like many of today's wireless earbuds, the NeoBuds can be fully customizable using the updated Edifier ConneX app which provides access to smart functions like the automatic pausing and playing of music, which makes them suitable for work and leisure.
These new NeoBuds Planar earbuds have the distinctive angular design favored by Edifier.
The advanced planar magnetic drivers used in the earbuds have been designed to provide a uniform level of audio performance. The ANC feature cancels any unwanted sounds like aircraft noise, road rumble or the background hum of HVAC systems by using active noise cancellation, making them suitable for commuting or working in a busy office.
The diaphragm of the planar magnetic drivers used in these new earbuds is made from ultra-thin material that provides an excellent transient response. This translates into a more detailed and precise sound while the second-generation EqualMass wiring counterbalances any uneven distribution across the magnetic field, producing an equal weight distribution over the entire surface of the diaphragm, giving all parts the same level of momentum.
Symmetric supporting wiring in the planar magnetic drivers enhances the physical stability of the diaphragm even further, creating more controlled and precise movement. Dual magnet arrays on both sides of the diaphragm create double the driving force in a push-pull movement that Edifier says significantly improves the drivers' efficiency.
Each of the Edifier NeoBuds Planar earpieces has three sensitive microphones on-board for ANC and ... More speech.
Edifier says it has gone to great lengths to ensure the drivers perform accurately. An auto-calibration process carried out during production of the drivers ensures they deliver a consistent and uniform level of audio performance.
The NeoBuds Planar earbuds are powered with Qualcomm's QCC5181 Bluetooth audio System-on-a-Chip which includes support for Qualcomm's advanced Snapdragon Sound Technology Suite. This relatively new technology produces a premium and immersive audio quality when used with host streaming devices that can support the Snapdragon platform.
These new earbuds are compatible with a wide range of Hi-Res Bluetooth audio codecs including aptX, aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless, Snapdragon Sound, LDAC, LHDC and AAC.
The NeoBuds Planar can be charged via USB-C or wirelessly with a Qi-compatible charging mat.
Few wireless earbuds these days comes without ANC and the Edifier NeoBuds Planar use Qualcomm's third-generation Hybrid Adaptive Noise Cancellation technology, which can dynamically adjust the ANC levels based on an advanced sampling of the surrounding ambient noise. This dynamic type of ANC makes for a more comfortable and immersive listening experience while effectively blocking out unwanted sounds.
Each of the Neobud earpieces includes three high-sensitivity microphones for optimal multi-mode audio pickup. Thanks to Qualcomm's aptX Voice technology, the earbuds can clearly pick up speech for hands-free phone calls and video conferencing, even in noisy conditions or when calling out of doors.
A full charge of the NeoBud Planar storage case contains enough power for the earbuds to play for up to 30 hours continuously. The case can be charged with a USB Type-C cable or wirelessly by using a Qi-compatible charging mat.
A full charge of the Edifier NeoBudss Planar earbuds provides up to 7.5 hours of playtime with ANC ... More turned off. The total battery time with the reserve in the charging case adds up to 30 hours with ANC off.
The adoption of the latest Bluetooth V5.4 standard supports seamless audio streaming and multipoint connection, enabling users to switch between two simultaneously connected devices. The Edifier ConneX app also provides a selection of personalized settings with features like wearing detection that can automatically pause and resume audio.
The NeoBuds have an IP55 rating, making them suitable for active and outdoor use like sports or walking in the rain. The ConneX app also has a setting for choosing eight LED color options for the earbuds, offering a personal touch to their appearance. Each earpiece also has press controls that prevent the unintentional triggering often experienced with touch controls.
The NeoBuds Planar wireless earbuds with ANC are available now and priced at $299.99 from
