The flexible band is thus ideal for precise calling and VCs. It also features passive radiators that boost bass and minimizes echo so that sound is easily audible even at low volume irrespective of the environment.
Additionally, the neckband has dual mics featuring high-quality beam foaming array to deliver clear voice quality when you’re on a call. The device has controls on either side to allow you to toggle volume, mute and do more.

It comes with a maximum communication range of 30 meters, which means you can be at any part of the house and still make a call with perfect clarity.
