Wearing regular earbuds is like signing an invisible contract that says, “Yes, I’d love to be completely oblivious to my surroundings.” Enter the NWM Dots, a pair of open-ear earphones designed for people who actually want to hear their music and avoid getting hit by a rogue cyclist.
Unlike traditional in-ear buds that burrow deep into your ear canals like sound-sealing goblins, the NWM Dots sit just outside, letting ambient noise in. This means you can enjoy your tunes while still catching important sounds—like your boss calling your name or a friend trying to warn you about an incoming frisbee.
A Peek at the Specs
These little guys weigh just 8 grams per earbud, making them so light you might forget you’re wearing them—until you remember you can still hear Karen from accounting. The Personalized Sound Zone (PSZ) tech keeps your audio private, reducing sound leakage so your embarrassing playlist remains your secret.
Battery life? A solid 8 hours per charge, with the case extending it to 32 hours. And if you’re in a rush, a 5-minute charge gets you an hour of playback. Other highlights include Bluetooth 5.3 with multipoint connectivity, IP54 dust and water resistance, and Magic Focus Voice for crisp, clear calls.
Pricing and Availability
The NWM Dots are available now for US$169. Perfect for those who want high-quality audio and the ability to eavesdrop at the coffee shop.
