Sony brought out their new headphones h. ear On at IFA Berlin this year, and it promises a whole world of innovation to sound.
The company is known for being a master of cool, clear sound and neat design, and the h. ear on, despite the funky name, looks comfortable and has a great look.
So the headphones come in an array of colors: red, hot pink, bright green, black, numbering up to 11 colors in total. The finish is nice, a mesh of plastic and metal. The awesome thing about these headsets is that they come with detachable chords, so you can easily take your jams with you with nice, durable and reliable wiring (that is supposedly allergic to tangling) or without, which is pretty neat. The headset itself can be charged with a battery chord unit, and sans cable, it gives users 16 hours of playback. It has 40mm HD drivers and can produce sounds of up to 60KHz, and although it is not a noise-canceling headset, its noise isolation is said to be pretty awesome. It has augmented bass, the domes of its acoustics diaphragms are coated in titanium to minimize unwanted vibrations, and it’s meant to give a full-fledged sound.
These headphones allow for versatile movement and Hi Res audio, and are a great grab for music lovers out there.

The headphones are set to hit US market in November at the pretty price of $199.99.
There’s a in-ear version of the headphones as well, carrying 9mm HD drivers and with a noise cancellation setting. It guarantees awesome isolation which is great for people who are on the go.
For Best Results, Use a Sony Walkman
In order to get the very best out of these headphones, Sony recommends customers get a Sony Walkman. This is supposed to guarantee the best sound because of the Hi Res audio compatibility that comes with the headset.
The ideal match is the Sony Walkman NW-ZX2, which, despite being priced at an astounding $1199.99, also has a noise cancellation setting and comes with 40 hours of total playback. It’s not touch screen, comes in 16GB and 64GB sizes, but it is guaranteed to bring the best out of the h. ear series.
The headphones come with an in-line remote and mic, and a pouch for carrying.
