LG Electronics’ new range of TONE Free FP series earphones are now available in South Africa.
LG’s new Whispering Mode allows users to hold the right earphone close to their mouth and whisper into its microphone, enabling clear and private phone calls even in public. Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) eliminates low-frequency sounds that can’t be completely blocked by normal earphones.
LG’s TONE Free models boast three microphones in each headset that listen for ambient noises and neutralise them by producing identical, though inaudible, soundwaves. By blocking intrusive background noise from three different directions, the ANC of the TONE Free earphones makes calls and music that much clearer.
The new earphones feature Merdian Audio, that uses digital signal processing to make sounds appear to originate from all directions. The TONE Free FP series adds a 3D Sound Stage feature to this, expanding the sound point via spatial up-mixing. With larger, upgraded drivers and diaphragms featuring silicone edging, allowing for more flexibility and movement, the new TONE Free models now deliver more powerful bass without compromising on clarity or detail.
LG collaborated with an ergonomic design technology lab to develop its Arc Design, featuring a headset stem 4,4mm shorter than previous models. The FP series earphones are also IPX4 rated, which means they are water resistant, and allow for worry-free listening during hard workout sessions or even in the rain.
Two of LG’s three FP series earphones include the industry’s only auto-cleaning UVnano charging case that uses ultra-violet light to reduce bacteria on the earphone speaker mesh by 99,9% after just five minutes of charging. And, to reduce the risk of skin irritations, the earphones feature medical-grade, hypoallergenic ear gels.
