disadvantages.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":23.56,"end_s":28.84,"text":"One is that the typical desktop monitor is a little on the heavy side.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":28.84,"end_s":37.98,"text":"And two, it's going to require access to an AC power

ones?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":96.5,"end_s":96.98,"text":"Especially,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":98.28,"end_s":101.1,"text":"when they don't look that

a,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":139.68,"end_s":139.86,"text":"oh,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":139.86,"end_s":141.96,"text":"that's kind of a shame to see in

pretty nice.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":165.82,"end_s":166.06,"text":"Actually,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":166.06,"end_s":167.68,"text":"the first thing I'm noticing is the bezel.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":167.8,"end_s":168.1,"text":"Yeah,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":168.1,"end_s":169.84,"text":"actually except the bottom.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":170.44,"end_s":174.64,"text":"But if you think about how it's intended to be used next to a laptop

whatsoever.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":180.16,"end_s":180.64,"text":"And in fact,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":180.64,"end_s":183.88,"text":"it might even be better for

the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":183.88,"end_s":184.42,"text":"displays.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":184.94,"end_s":185.2,"text":"Okay.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":185.2,"end_s":186.46,"text":"So it looks cool as a tablet,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":186.46,"end_s":187.72,"text":"but how does it actually stand up?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":188.8,"end_s":188.92,"text":"No,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":188.92,"end_s":189.04,"text":"no,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":189.04,"end_s":189.7,"text":"I've seen,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":189.74,"end_s":189.94,"text":"yeah,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":189.94,"end_s":191.02,"text":"I've seen ones like this before.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":191.02,"end_s":193.96,"text":"So the mechanism honestly doesn't feel amazing.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":193.96,"end_s":194.28,"text":"In fact,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":194.28,"end_s":196.96,"text":"you can see a little bit of kind of flex in the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":196.96,"end_s":197.68,"text":"back there.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":198.28,"end_s":198.88,"text":"Um,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":199.3,"end_s":199.48,"text":"I mean,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":199.48,"end_s":201.34,"text":"I don't think it's coming off or anything,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":201.34,"end_s":204.82,"text":"but I think a couple more screws right here and right here","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":204.82,"end_s":207.38,"text":"under the hinge would have gone a long way towards making that","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":207.38,"end_s":208.6,"text":"feel a little less flexy,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":208.9,"end_s":211.12,"text":"but the actual kickstand

pretty","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":215.68,"end_s":216.1,"text":"sturdy,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":216.1,"end_s":218.5,"text":"actually all the way down to about as low as I","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":218.5,"end_s":220.54,"text":"think you'd need to like my worst case scenario,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":220.54,"end_s":220.84,"text":"I think,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":220.84,"end_s":223.42,"text":"is like jammed onto like a plane.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":223.42,"end_s":226.48,"text":"Assuming I can actually balance this on the dinner tray thing.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":226.48,"end_s":227.28,"text":"This is metal

you think that's a little scrapey?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":230.02,"end_s":231.58,"text":"You think that was scratch a desk?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":231.58,"end_s":233.02,"text":"Maybe honestly,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":233.02,"end_s":236.14,"text":"I'd be less concerned about scratching and I'd be more concerned about","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":236.14,"end_s":237.64,"text":"just slipping in general.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":237.76,"end_s":240.7,"text":"I'd want a rubberized foot or something along there just for that.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":240.7,"end_s":242.44,"text":"Even what's up with that.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":242.62,"end_s":243.58,"text":"That looks like rust.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":243.76,"end_s":244.84,"text":"So here's the thing.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":244.84,"end_s":247.54,"text":"This is a Kickstarter project.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":247.6,"end_s":248.3,"text":"Um,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":248.3,"end_s":250.36,"text":"so these are pre-production samples,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":250.36,"end_s":253.24,"text":"but I guess this is our opportunity to give them feedback","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":253.24,"end_s":254.92,"text":"for when they do the finished ones.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":255.28,"end_s":255.58,"text":"Uh,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":255.58,"end_s":259.1,"text":"I would consider rust on a product that has just been","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":259.1,"end_s":260.44,"text":"taken out of the box to be,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":261.04,"end_s":261.58,"text":"um,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":261.88,"end_s":262.46,"text":"how do you say it?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":263.49,"end_s":264.17,"text":"Unacceptable.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":265.17,"end_s":265.89,"text":"However he does it.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":267.53,"end_s":268.25,"text":"It's magnetic.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":268.85,"end_s":270.11,"text":"Those are the rusty

here,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":271.53,"end_s":274.07,"text":"you've got some labels for the buttons.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":274.59,"end_s":275.81,"text":"Rear labels.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":276.17,"end_s":277.91,"text":"Why is this as bad?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":278.37,"end_s":280.37,"text":"There's not enough room on the bezel for them.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":280.37,"end_s":282.77,"text":"Is that as bad an experience as I think it is though?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":283.25,"end_s":283.49,"text":"Uh,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":283.49,"end_s":286.13,"text":"well I did play with it a little bit earlier and it sucked.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":286.13,"end_s":286.31,"text":"Yeah.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":286.31,"end_s":286.97,"text":"I didn't like it.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":287.21,"end_s":292.01,"text":"One of the things that's actually special about these guys is that they've got a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":292.01,"end_s":297.01,"text":"built in battery so you can use them without access to a wall plug,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":297.11,"end_s":299.77,"text":"which is sort of part of the joke we were making at the beginning of the video","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":299.77,"end_s":301.43,"text":"where I was carrying around a full size monitor.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":301.73,"end_s":306.33,"text":"It's a 5,000 milliamp hour battery and they claim it'll last you five hours,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":306.33,"end_s":309.77,"text":"which is pretty sweet because you don't want to drain your laptop's battery.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":309.77,"end_s":310.19,"text":"That's all.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":310.19,"end_s":311.19,"text":"It's ready at a premium.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":311.21,"end_s":311.81,"text":"Yeah.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":311.81,"end_s":315.57,"text":"And that's the way that most of these external laptop monitors have worked in the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":315.57,"end_s":320.15,"text":"past is just by plugging in via a couple of USB plugs so that they can take","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":320.15,"end_s":324.59,"text":"both display and power from your laptop's built in battery.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":324.87,"end_s":325.13,"text":"Okay,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":325.13,"end_s":325.41,"text":"cool.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":325.41,"end_s":329.23,"text":"Well why don't we go ahead and set them up and take a look at the two different","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":329.23,"end_s":329.53,"text":"models.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":329.53,"end_s":334.53,"text":"So my understanding is this one is actually 4k and that one's 10 80.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":334.85,"end_s":335.33,"text":"Yes.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":335.33,"end_s":336.29,"text":"So I'll take this one then.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":336.47,"end_s":336.75,"text":"Yeah.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":336.75,"end_s":339.69,"text":"Well jokes on you because this one's touchscreen and that one's not.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":339.77,"end_s":340.13,"text":"Oh,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":340.19,"end_s":340.41,"text":"okay.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":340.41,"end_s":341.57,"text":"Well that's actually kind of cool.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":341.75,"end_s":344.81,"text":"So there are a couple of things I immediately notice hooking this thing up.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":344.85,"end_s":347.75,"text":"One is that interestingly,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":347.75,"end_s":351.07,"text":"you can turn on HDR and wide color gamut.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":351.07,"end_s":355.73,"text":"So technically this appears to be an HDR display with the only","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":355.73,"end_s":360.43,"text":"problem being that if the out of the box experience is anything to go","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":360.43,"end_s":360.77,"text":"by,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":360.77,"end_s":365.61,"text":"it is not nearly bright enough for me to consider it to be really","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":365.61,"end_s":367.07,"text":"truly HDR ready.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":367.19,"end_s":369.05,"text":"The spec says 300 nits.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":369.05,"end_s":371.06,"text":"Ooh.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":371.36,"end_s":374.12,"text":"So after trying to enable HDR a handful of times,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":374.12,"end_s":376.94,"text":"including disabling the built in display here,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":376.98,"end_s":379.82,"text":"we've determined that it's not turning on.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":380.24,"end_s":381.44,"text":"And quite frankly,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":381.44,"end_s":385.16,"text":"given that it's really not much brighter even than the display built into my","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":385.16,"end_s":385.82,"text":"blade stealth,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":385.82,"end_s":387.66,"text":"which is not a particularly bright

this","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":392.16,"end_s":393.48,"text":"thing anyway.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":393.48,"end_s":395.54,"text":"So I probably wouldn't stress out about that too much.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":395.78,"end_s":399.08,"text":"So the 4k one has got HDMI in and it's 4k,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":399.08,"end_s":400.28,"text":"60 Hertz by the way.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":400.28,"end_s":401.6,"text":"So that would be HDMI

increases your productivity dramatically, whether you're in the office or on the go, be it at the airport, in a coffee shop, or just, you know, hanging out at a friend's house. But it's clear that when it comes to taking two monitors with you, there are a couple of disadvantages. One is that the typical desktop monitor is a little on the heavy side. And two, it's going to require access to an AC power outlet, something that you won't necessarily have with you when you're at, you know, the average airport, unless, you know, the airports where you're from are better equipped than the ones around here. So today's video then is all about creating your own perfect productivity space that you can take with you and set up virtually anywhere. Yeah. But not like that. Like this. Oh, that does look better. With GlassWire, you can instantly see your current and past network activity, detect malware, and block badly behaving apps on your PC or Android device. Use offer code Linus and get 25% off GlassWire at the link below. So the thing about these portable monitors is they're not exactly a new concept, which sort of raises the question, why exactly are we featuring these ones? Especially, when they don't look that impressive. Portable monitor, display terminal equipment. I thought that was the company's name, but it's not. No, it's just, this is display terminal equipment inside the box. And in case you were wondering what kind of resolving power it has, they didn't even check one for us. Okay. Have you ever heard resolution called resolving power? Yes, in the context of like a space telescope. So for all, it's rudimentary. Ness assuming that that's a word, the packaging is actually not bad. I think it'd be very unlikely to be damaged in the box. And they've got actually a pretty decent accessory package inside. You've got a, oh, that's kind of a shame to see in 2019, but you've got a regular sort of, wow, what are these called? DC adapter. Yeah. That kind of connector. Yeah. I forget what they're called, whatever cylinder plug, a remote that actually looks kind of like the NVIDIA shield TV, one HDMI cable type C to type a, and finally a type C to type C cable. So this is pretty nice. Actually, the first thing I'm noticing is the bezel. Yeah, actually except the bottom. But if you think about how it's intended to be used next to a laptop where almost all of them have that, that large bottom bezel, then I, it's not going to stand out whatsoever. And in fact, it might even be better for synchronizing your mouse movements across the displays. Okay. So it looks cool as a tablet, but how does it actually stand up? No, no, I've seen, yeah, I've seen ones like this before. So the mechanism honestly doesn't feel amazing. In fact, you can see a little bit of kind of flex in the back there. Um, I mean, I don't think it's coming off or anything, but I think a couple more screws right here and right here under the hinge would have gone a long way towards making that feel a little less flexy, but the actual kickstand mechanism feels pretty good. You can go all the way from quite vertical and it's pretty sturdy, actually all the way down to about as low as I think you'd need to like my worst case scenario, I think, is like jammed onto like a plane. Assuming I can actually balance this on the dinner tray thing. This is metal though, right? Yeah. Yeah. Do you think that's a little scrapey? You think that was scratch a desk? Maybe honestly, I'd be less concerned about scratching and I'd be more concerned about just slipping in general. I'd want a rubberized foot or something along there just for that. Even what's up with that. That looks like rust. So here's the thing. This is a Kickstarter project. Um, so these are pre-production samples, but I guess this is our opportunity to give them feedback for when they do the finished ones. Uh, I would consider rust on a product that has just been taken out of the box to be, um, how do you say it? Unacceptable. However he does it. It's magnetic. Those are the rusty magnets. Oh, and then here, you've got some labels for the buttons. Rear labels. Why is this as bad? There's not enough room on the bezel for them. Is that as bad an experience as I think it is though? Uh, well I did play with it a little bit earlier and it sucked. Yeah. I didn't like it. One of the things that's actually special about these guys is that they've got a built in battery so you can use them without access to a wall plug, which is sort of part of the joke we were making at the beginning of the video where I was carrying around a full size monitor. It's a 5,000 milliamp hour battery and they claim it'll last you five hours, which is pretty sweet because you don't want to drain your laptop's battery. That's all. It's ready at a premium. Yeah. And that's the way that most of these external laptop monitors have worked in the past is just by plugging in via a couple of USB plugs so that they can take both display and power from your laptop's built in battery. Okay, cool. Well why don't we go ahead and set them up and take a look at the two different models. So my understanding is this one is actually 4k and that one's 10 80. Yes. So I'll take this one then. Yeah. Well jokes on you because this one's touchscreen and that one's not. Oh, okay. Well that's actually kind of cool. So there are a couple of things I immediately notice hooking this thing up. One is that interestingly, you can turn on HDR and wide color gamut. So technically this appears to be an HDR display with the only problem being that if the out of the box experience is anything to go by, it is not nearly bright enough for me to consider it to be really truly HDR ready. The spec says 300 nits. Ooh. So after trying to enable HDR a handful of times, including disabling the built in display here, we've determined that it's not turning on. And quite frankly, given that it's really not much brighter even than the display built into my blade stealth, which is not a particularly bright display, I would say that you're not going to be having a true HDR experience on this thing anyway. So I probably wouldn't stress out about that too much. So the 4k one has got HDMI in and it's 4k, 60 Hertz by the way. So that would be HDMI too. It's got mini DisplayPort. It's got USB type C, and then it's actually got a couple type a ports. So that USB type C is an uplink. You can use the thing as a hub, plug your keyboard and mouse into it, which is a pretty useful feature in the age of the dongle, given that you can't take for granted that your laptop will actually have a type a port on it. Speaking of things you can't take for granted on modern devices, a headphone jack. So if you're using HDMI and you've got audio over HDMI, then you can pass that through to yourself. How's yours looking? No DisplayPort mini or otherwise, but we have HDMI. We have two instead of one, but they're the tiny, tiny kind. I hate mini HDMI. Why do you hate it? It's a really flimsy connector. So both the receptacle and the plug itself are prone to easy breakage because it's so thin and so wide. And quite honestly, it's just pretty poorly designed. Then what else do we have here? Well, instead of having your full size USB A's, you have micros and then you've got a USB-C again. And again, your headphone jack. So this is all pretty cool so far, but one of the key pieces of information that's missing up until this point is how exactly these stack up against other options available on the market. Because if you can get something like this for the same price from a brand that you've ever heard of, maybe one with slightly better build quality, obviously I would recommend going that route instead. So we fired up B&H and it turns out the Zen screen go 15.6 inch IPS monitor from a CX. This is the same monitor from a Seuss is $289. So that's actually less than the MSRP, but more than the Kickstarter pre-order price for the 1080p model here. And it's got a 7,800 milliamp hour battery. And that is a significant increase. Yeah. So these are 5,000. However, we haven't been making this video for nothing. I swear there was a reason that we bothered and that's this. The main difference here, this has a touch screen interface and that just isn't something that we've seen for as cheap as this in the past. So that is pretty darn cool. If you've ever tried to find a touch screen monitor, like not a replacement for your phone or anything like that, but a touch screen monitor for your computer, you'd be shocked to find out how expensive they are. So $300 for one like this, that's honestly not the most amazing, amazing display I've ever seen in terms of the trails behind objects or the contrast. But what it does have is something that's utterly unique right now at this price point. And that is touch capability also a matte finish on the screen, which is very unusual for a touch screen as for the 4k model. Well, this one's quite a lot more expensive at around $500, but it's a 4k portable monitor, which again, at the time that we requested, these was not something, something that we had seen before. It's definitely sharp, but it is not the best looking 4k display that I've seen. How was the color accuracy on this guy? I think the Delta E's were around five. Okay. So that's better. Acceptable if you're not a pro, but we kind of introduced this as being useful for those people doing remote work. If you're a contract graphic designer or something, you want to be at a coffee shop. Well, how about gaming then? Yeah. How about gaming? Let's go. Okay. I've got a type, I've got a type, I've got a type C to HDMI, and then I can go ahead and plug into, we've got the 10 ADP touch model here. And theoretically I should be able to fire up the fortnight. All right. Play some fortnight, baby. Is this even going to be worthwhile? You got to tap the screen. You're not holding a controller. We could hold a controller. BRB. Is that you or me? Nice. That's not bad. That's pretty sweet. That's pretty cool. Being able to just like unpack your 15 inch display. You already have a phone, pull out a controller and dongle. So now that we know with a little bit of searching for a controller that doesn't brick things, we could have basically a mobile console experience just with this and a controller packed in our bag, a couple of cables. Uh, but James wants to try something else. So this one actually has a USB type C input. So we're going to get rid of this crappy HDMI mini and try this and see what happens. Do you actually know what's going to happen? Nope. Oh, well, I looked at their Kickstarter page, so we've got the aspect ratio difference here, but that's possibly something we could adjust as well. Actually. I want to know, but this is touch screens on. No way. Yes. It's working. Yes, because it's USB-C. You can chill like this and then have it kind of out. Dude, this is like having a 70 inch TV. So we're going to try an iPhone now, but, unfortunately, because iPhones don't use USB type C, they have lightning. Uh, we can't just use our direct connection. We're going to have to go back to HDMI dude. Oh, sure. Okay. And a dongle. It picked it up right away. Interestingly, we are pillar boxed and letter boxed, but we're getting audio over the display now. Why do we, why didn't we get audio ever before? Maybe we just have the game volume turned down. I might've had it off. Those speakers really are not amazing. The latency is not terrible. It's noticeable. So you can see that. Yeah, but it's usable. Like if you're used to gaming on a TV or something anyway, I don't think you're going to notice the difference that much. I'm actually like considering taking one of these on my trip that I'm going on today. And it doesn't really add like a ton of weight, especially if I chuck it in my carry on instead of carrying in my backpack or something. That feels very light. It's definitely lighter than an iPad. The new ones are pretty thin. They're pretty light. It's impressive. I think this probably feels lighter just because it's bigger. It's like lower density. Well, what about the iPad pro that's that size? I'm going to look it up, sir. James gets food wrong. In three, two, one. Damn it. It's 1.57 pounds. So conclusion here, then portable displays are as cool as they've ever been even cooler now that they have built in batteries. And these ones, while not amazing are certainly coming in at a price where I think that they look pretty compelling, especially if you're after that touchscreen functionality. Okay. So this is the thing, I don't know if you guys are familiar with the 4k, but the people want to definitive answer. So can you give us one of those like emperor gladiator thumb things? He lives. Okay. So here's the thing. If money's no object, I like the 4k one. I'm going to take this one on my trip. However, money is a concern. So they sent us these, but if you're actually buying one, this one looks like the more compelling option. It does have some significant shortcomings. I don't like the limited brightness and I don't like the inaccurate colors out of the box, but at anywhere from 240 to 300, depending on whether you preorder it or whether you wait, it looks like a pretty compelling value. If you have any use of the touchscreen, that is absolutely the killer app of this display right here. The coves drive wireless earphones feature noise canceling to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. They've got a built in microphone to answer calls hands-free and they feature IPX seven water resistance, meaning that the headset can actually be submerged for up to 30 minutes in three feet of water. The battery provides, five to seven hours of playback and they stay in place while being lightweight and durable.
