"The LG Xboom Buds Plus are available in Black for $180. Their charging case features a germ-killing UV light. The charging case also doubles as a Bluetooth transmitter. LG's collaboration with musician will.i.am includes several earbuds and Bluetooth speakers under the Xboom namesake, but a recent launch is the most intriguing one I've seen so far. The new Buds Plus advertise a self-cleaning charging case with a built-in Bluetooth transmitter. LG announced these earbuds last fall, but availability seemed to be delayed until now."
"Alongside those flashy features, the Buds Plus also include 10mm graphene drivers, six microphones for active noise cancellation, adaptive EQ, an IPX4 water resistance rating, up to 30 hours of playtime, and Bluetooth LE Audio compatibility. Based on an early product review from Reddit, the Buds Plus' built-in Bluetooth transmitter requires a proprietary USB-C-to-3.5mm cable for non-wireless audio sources, such as a treadmill or in-flight entertainment system. Still, using the earbuds case as the transmitter eliminates the need for Bluetooth dongles."
LG Xboom Buds Plus retail in Black for $180 and pair 10mm graphene drivers with six microphones for active noise cancellation and adaptive EQ. The earbuds offer IPX4 water resistance, up to 30 hours of total playtime, and compatibility with Bluetooth LE Audio when used with supported devices. The charging case uses UVnano technology to eliminate 99.99% of bacteria on ear gels and speaker mesh but requires connection to power to activate. The case also functions as a Bluetooth transmitter for non-wireless sources via a proprietary USB-C-to-3.5mm cable, avoiding separate dongles. iPhone models in the US lack LE Audio support, and some Samsung devices block the LC3 codec.
