Logitech launches new Zone True Wireless earbuds

Tech news 5 August 2021

Logitech has announced the launch of its Zone True Wireless earbuds — made to use for video conferencing and online meetings.

The company noted that with the wireless earbuds, it also launched a wired version called Zone Wired Earbuds and both were made to use on Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom.

“Current wireless solutions force consumers to compromise between either traditional headsets that are not aesthetically suited for video calling, or sub-optimal audio performance,” said Scott Wharton, general manager and vice president for Logitech Video Collaboration said in a statement.

“With Zone True Wireless and Zone Wired Earbuds, you no longer have to compromise. These earbuds were designed so people look great on video calls and have best-in-class audio certified by the top video platforms.”

Both wired and wireless devices feature noise cancelling microphones and have an IP68 rating for dust, sweat, and water resistance. You can charge the wireless earbuds wirelessly or through a USB-C cable.

The wireless earphones connect to both mobiles devices and computers. For your computer, you can use the USB receiver to connect the earphones.

Users will also have the ability to customize and control their audio experience by using the Open Logi Tune app on their smartphones.

In terms of battery life, the earbuds last six hours with ANC on (when used in conjunction with speaking), and 6.5 hours with ANC off.

When it comes just to listening, the earbuds last between nine hours with ANC on, and 12 hours with ANC off.

The Zone True Wireless and the Zone Wired Earbuds will be available for a recommended price of R4 310.

While an exact launch date for the earphones was not given, Logitech noted that they will roll out globally in August.

The Zone True Wireless buds come in two colours: Graphite and Rose.

The Rose colour of the Zone True Wireless earphones will only be available from the Logitech online store.
