Custom-fit Earbuds
Ultimate Ears just announced UE FITS, which claim to be the first-ever true wireless earphones with instant custom fit. Since each person’s individual ear is unique, UE FITS offer a method that molds the earbud gel tip into each ear in less than a minute. The company says this goes beyond the standard tip sizes of small, medium and large. Further adding these instant, fit-for-only-you earbuds will stay in place for all-day comfort and deliver an exceptional audio experience.
Design
Built on the acoustic expertise that designs performance-level in-ear monitors for professional musicians, UE FITS are engineered with premium single dynamic 10mm drivers that provide a sound signature that is full, warm and detailed with deep, tight and punchy bass.
How it works?
During the intuitive fitting process, the UE FITS app connects to the earbuds and triggers the embedded LEDs, which emit a gentle purple glow. Patented Lightform technology uses light to harden the gel-filled tips to the contours of each ear, transforming them into earbuds that perfectly fit the consumer’s ear in under 60 seconds. This personalized fit provides wearable comfort free of pressure, pain or irritation, even after extended use. UE FITS also offer superior passive noise isolation as the fitted tips create a natural seal that blocks ambient noise.
Features
UE FITS deliver up to 8 hours of battery life — continuous listening on a single charge. Through additional charges from the compact case, UE FITS offer over 20 hours of playback. You can play/pause music and answer calls directly from the earbuds. You can also customize the earbud control buttons using the UE FITS app; to activate voice assistant, skip tracks or control volume. With strategically-positioned dual microphones, the earphones are designed to reduce wind noise and enhance call clarity in any situation.
“We are redefining wireless earphones with UE FITS. For the first time ever, we are bringing instant custom fit to premium earbuds. With the press of a button and in under 60 seconds, consumers can experience exceptional comfort and sound quality from earphones that perfectly fit the unique shape of their ears.”Jonah Staw, General Manager and Head of Ultimate Ears Custom Earphones
