It was Sega's sixth console so it took the name of the sixth planet from the Sun: Saturn. And while the 32-bit console was quite ahead of its time (two 32-bit RISC CPUs, 3D graphics, online gaming, etc.), it didn't quite meet with the level of approval it deserved, perhaps exactly because it was too good for 1995. To celebrate 30 years that have passed since then, Sega has collaborated with Onkyo to produce a unique piece of audio equipment: a pair of earphones made to look like the Saturn and its joystick. The result is the Onkyo Sega Saturn True Wireless Earphones!
Of course, the main attraction for the Onkyo Sega Saturn True Wireless Earphones are the visuals: the charging case looks just like Sega's classic console and each of the earphones themselves like half the joypad. But go a little deeper and you'll see that like the landmark console, they too are quite advanced with features including Qualcomm's latest chipset (QCC3040), its latest codec (aptXTM Adaptive), and TrueWireless Mirroring that offers more robust and seamless connectivity and better battery management. Add multi-pairing for up to six devices, continuous playback for up to nine hours, and IPX7 waterproof protection, and you have a perfect combination of looks and function – and a unique gamer's collectible.
