Angry Miao Launches Futuristic Ultra-Low Latency Cyberblade True Wireless Earbuds

September 1 2022, 16:00
Angry Miao is a community-driven technology brand that is determined to shake up the audio industry with bold designs inspired on gaming culture and aesthetics. The Chinese company just announced the new Cyberblade true wireless earbuds, which are being promoted with a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter and promise to deliver 36ms ultra-low latency audio while ensuring a high-quality sound quality experience thanks to a new exclusive three-chip design.
 

Starting with a completely different, futuristic design that is not afraid to push the conventions, the Angry Miao Cyberblade true wireless earbuds will be available in three bold metallic colors, and a unique charging case. Cyberblade takes their inspiration from next-generation console Sci-Fi games and includes a distinct triangular design. The full Cyberblade experience also comes with customizable RGB lighting strips on the earbuds, charging case, and dock as an added design perk to suit the distinct tastes of each user. Through the dedicated Angry Miao app, users can create their own personalized RGB lighting presets, as well as manage other functionality.

"Angry Miao Cyberblade is a radical product in a market otherwise plagued by uninteresting designs and lack of innovation, setting the tone for what role true wireless earbuds will play in the future" says Li Nan, CEO and founder of Angry Miao. "The Sci-Fi inspired design not only makes it stand out from the crowd, but it also embodies the advanced, tech-forward technology found inside. With the device's third chip located in its charging case, high-quality sound at low latency is no longer just a dream."

With all these unique design features, Cyberblade stands out from traditional earbuds on the market. The Shell Black earbuds feature an anodized aluminum alloy charging case that is accented through a specialized knurling process, improving its look and feel.
 

But what truly differentiates the new product from Angry Miao is the company's "third chip" solution that enables leveraging the most advanced algorithms in wireless earbuds. There are two dedicated SoC on the two earbuds and one incorporated into the charging case that tackles one of the largest challenges currently found in true wireless earbuds: the balance between computing power and battery consumption.

By including an additional computational audio chip in the charging case the Cyberblade wireless earbuds can offer Angry Miao Advanced Sound Enhancement (ASE) suite effects such as generic HRTF profiles for virtual 7.1 binaural rendering reproduction, studio-level EQ and AGC, Hybrid ANC, Dual-Mic AI ENC, and transparency mode.

As expected from new wireless earbuds, the Cyberblade earbuds will support Bluetooth 5.2, while the charging case includes a dock that can be connected via USB to a digital audio output device such as PS4, PS5, PC, Mac, Switch or iPad. Audio transmission will be performed through an efficient proprietary transmission protocol optimized by Angry Miao, the company says. Through this protocol, users will be able to take advantage of low latency without experiencing a sacrifice in sound quality.

In other words, Cyberblade are TWS earbuds that offer all the convenience of wireless Bluetoothh, while leveraging a dedicated audio transmission path for low latency applications such as in gaming, and an independent DSP-processed 2.4GHz transmission protocol.
 

The third chip in the charging case and the powerful HRTF-powered spatial audio algorithm enables the Cyberblade earbuds to support three audio enhancing modes - what the company calls "Audio Boosters". These modes or Boosters support Gaming, Movie and Music applications, taking advantage of the wired connection between the charging case or dock and an audio output device. In the gaming model, the design will enhance spatial awareness with the lowest 36ms latency. The Movie Booster offers virtual 7.1 sound with improved spatial layering. And finally the Music Booster adds studio-level EQ, DRC and AGC algorithms.

Angry Miao says that it didn't forget about the basics of comfort, noise cancellation, and battery life. Each Cyberblade earbud weighs just 6.5g, and is IPX4 water resistant. The earbuds' liquid silicone and Rohacell driver diaphragm improve their vibration properties while also allowing for a strong bass, thanks to their light and rigid structure.

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is supported, with six microphones built-in and ready to filter out over 35dB of noise. Advanced algorithms allow for more applicable scenarios, and in-call noise-canceling is also supported by Dual-Mic AI ENC technology. There's even a unique external knob that can be used to easily adjust the volume or switch the microphone on/off with a single click. 

The Cyberblade Kickstarter campaign is now live and while the high-tech wireless earbuds are predicted to retail for US $328, Kickstarter backers can pre-order for US $279 during the first 24 hours after launch and then for US $299 for the remainder of the campaign.
