The partnership comes on the heels of Ora's successful integrations into flagship products for 2 major consumer electronics brands - a couple of premium gaming headphones launched to the public over the summer. These first integrations of Ora's GrapheneQ technology has garnered widespread acclaim and is currently available to consumers worldwide. Ora Graphene originally introduced its GrapheneQ diaphragm in 2018, with a proof-of-concept headphone design promoted on Kickstarter that clearly demonstrated the superiority of its GrapheneQ technology.
Now Ora is working with Merry Electronics in Taiwan to be able to offer two standard-model graphene headphone driver products ready to be integrated in new designs and be delivered in volume production. Up until now, the only way to get actual graphene (not just deposition coatings) in a product was to do a custom driver design to create an exclusive driver that belonged only to the brand that commissioned it. However, not all brands had the time or bandwidth to engage in a new driver development. With the announcement of these new, non-exclusive graphene drivers, the Canadian company will be able to offer a solution to headphone manufacturers looking for a strong performance differentiation.
