Technics’ latest true wireless earbuds are designed to improve call quality

Chat’s good

If you’re buying a pair of Technics headphones you’re expecting them to sound good, but the new EAH-AZ60 (£199) and EAH-AZ40 (£129) were designed with a focus on call quality, too. Both use Technics’ JustMyVoice tech that amplifies your voice above background noise, and the more premium EAH-AZ60 (pictured) employ a total of eight mics across both earbuds that support more natural-sounding phone conversations. You also get Hi-Res audio and noise-cancelling with the EAH-AZ60, but both models have ambient and attention modes that make the world around you more audible when needed, plus IPX4 waterproofing. As for audio quality, the EAH-AZ60 buds are equipped with 8mm drivers, while the EAH-AZ40’s smaller 6mm dynamic driver still features an acoustic control chamber for powerful bass and a harmonizer for what Technics calls “smooth treble”. They’re available to buy from early October.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Spurs are going to win a trophy this season.
