Creative Unveils Aurvana Ace Series True Wireless Earbuds Powered by xMEMS Drivers

Creative Technology announced the release of its latest Creative Aurvana Ace and Creative Aurvana Ace 2 true wireless earbuds featuring solid-state MEMS-based drivers from xMEMS. The Creative Aurvana Ace series has been expertly tuned to deliver a wider frequency response ranging from 5Hz to 40KHz for high resolution audio sources, benefiting from the unique characteristics of MEMS drivers. The new Bluetooth 5.3 earbuds also feature LE Audio with LC3 codec, and Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC).

Creative Technology released its all-new range of Creative Zen Hybrid Pro wireless headphones and their accompanying bundles, the Creative Zen Hybrid Pro Classic and Creative Zen Hybrid Pro SXFI. Equipped with nifty features such as Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and Ambient Mode, a powerful 40mm Neodymium driver, and an impressive battery life of up to 100 hours, these latest headphones are also Bluetooth LE Audio Ready, thanks to the latest Airoha LE Audio (Mediatek) platform.

Knowles announced the availability of KN2, a True Wireless Stereo (TWS) reference design tuned to the Knowles Preferred Listening Response Curve, incorporating results of the company's study for music listening on in-ear designs. KN2 features a state-of-art hybrid dual driver system paired with an advanced Bluetooth system-on-chip (SoC) and active noise cancellation (ANC) system along with other advanced features.

The new 1MORE SonoFlow ANC headphones enter a competitive market segment with a product positioned at the top of the scale but at an entry-level price. Not only the SonoFlow headphones feature hybrid active noise cancellation, they also support LDAC for High-Resolution Wireless Audio over Bluetooth 5 to match the fast-response of the ultra-low mass carbon-coated 40mm diaphragms. Plus, the SonoFlow last for 70-hours and offer the ability to fast charge the headphones in 5-minutes to gain 5-hours of continuous playback via USB-C.

Bowers & Wilkins, the renowned British hifi audio brand, launched the new Px7 S2 active noise cancelling wireless headphones, an updated design that reflects advancements achieved over the past two years in the category. Leveraging the most advanced Qualcomm Bluetooth 5.0 platform with aptX Adaptive, the Px7 S2 adds all new drivers fine-tuned for high-resolution audio, in a refined design that is lower in weight and even more comfortable.

The announcement comes directly from Japan and the brand's Asian and Pacific websites, following the Yamaha Design Laboratory preview unveiled in 2020 to promote the new headphones created by lead designers Masafumi Futo and Yoshinobu Terazaki. Now, Yamaha confirmed the flagship and truly unique YH-L700A headphones will be available August 2021, introducing an advanced ANC implementation with a series of smart optimizations.

If the market research is accurate and consumers' main priority is audio quality, then it makes sense to offer the best possible options as a way to differentiate new true wireless earbud designs. That was now attempted by Edifier, a company with access to the best available technologies and manufacturing resources. The NeoBuds Pro ANC earbuds are a new Hi-Res Audio certified TWS design, now available to pre-order on IndieGoGo.
