YEVO Introduces YEVO Air Second Generation True Wireless Headphones

YEVO Labs, the Stockholm-based innovation lab born from the creators of Happy Plugs, announced the availability of its second-generation true wireless headphones, YEVO Air. The new generation combines design, performance and advanced technology for superior sound quality and reliable Bluetooth 4.2 connection in the brand’s signature contemporary design. Like its predecessor YEVO 1, YEVO Air allows listeners to experience total freedom of movement without any wires and is available now for $129.00 worldwide.

Qualcomm announced the QCC3026, a flash-programmable Bluetooth Audio System-on-Chip (SoC) that is designed to reduce power consumption by up to 50% compared to previous generation entry-level flash devices. The new SoC is also engineered to help manufacturers simply and quickly develop and commercialize feature optimized truly wireless headsets, and extends the Company’s portfolio of low power Bluetooth audio solutions following the announcement of the flagship QCC5100 Bluetooth SoC series earlier this year.

Munich-based Bragi is known for making truly wireless earphones, which are in fact the first truly smart hearables. Its first product, The Dash, won the CES 2015 Innovation Award Best of Innovation in the Headphones product category. When the idea of truly wireless stereo earbuds was still an idea, Bragi was working hard to enter the space, but their vision was going much further: truly wearables. As Nikolaj Hviid, Founder and CEO, Bragi GmbH puts it, "The purpose of wearables is to increase the data rate from the human to the machine."
