For all their practicality that has led to their almost total domination, earbuds still have their critics: it's not uncommon for them to be compared to earplugs and when some manufacturers try to balance that with different designs, the result is very often an earphone that is just easier to drop and, eventually, lose. And while some brands deal with that by adding an arm that goes around the ear, Ambie's proposal, the Sound Earcuffs AM-TW02, is more practical and stylish, including the choice of four color schemes: black and white versions, but also flamingo and beige and green and indigo combos.
The innovative nature of the Ambie Sound Earcuffs AM-TW02 design is obvious the moment you see it: the Earcuffs comprise two parts bridged with a soft material that pinches the ear gently and guarantees a better, more secure fit, without completely blocking your ears. They are very light (just 4.4 g / 0.2 oz each) and support multipoint pairing for up to 10 devices, fast charging (5 minutes gives you an hour of playback), and Google Fast Pair.
