If you're in the market for a pair of premium earbuds to use while you run or work out, HTC and JBL are bringing a pair to market that you might be interested in. In conjunction with the HTC 10 launch, the Reflect Aware C headphones are targeted directly at smartphone users who want a little more.
It's not just the design and construction. The headphones come with three different sizes of both standard tips and sport tips, are to be "sweat proof" and have a reflective surface on the tangle-free cord. Anyone doing a little jogging or otherwise exercising appreciates that. The Reflect Aware C set also has active-noise canceling with adaptive noise control. This combo should allow for the fine-tuning to hear things like a car horn or siren (important while running!) while still keeping background noise to a minimum. And because the USB Type-C connection can pass both audio and power, there's no need for batteries.
HTC also promises the "JBL signature sound" and we expect good things when paired with the new BoomSound HiFi powered HTC 10.
We'll take a good look at these and have all the information about pricing and availability soon.
