Honor Earbuds 3 Pro can monitor your temperature
    2022-03-02  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

ALONG with its Magic 4 flagship smartphones and the Watch GS 3 smartwatch, Honor has announced Earbuds 3 Pro that include built-in temperature monitoring technology at Mobile World Congress 2022 in Barcelona, Spain.

Temperature monitoring, among other signals, has become especially important to tracking someone’s health during the pandemic, and checking your temperature at home using infrared ear thermometers is already widely available. Wearables incorporating temperature monitoring sounds like something that isn’t far off, and the idea even reportedly caught Apple’s eye while developing updates to its AirPods.

Wearers can tap the buds three times to activate temperature monitoring, with continuous measurement and even an “abnormal temperature alert.” However, a footnote mentions that they are “not for any medical purpose,” and that for now, the device is for demonstration purposes only until it has been brought into compliance with related regulations.

The Wall Street Journal reported in October that Apple was looking into adding the feature in its AirPods, making the product a part of its growing platform of health tech. An earlier rumor mentioned temperature monitoring as a feature for the Apple Watch Series 7, but it wasn’t there when the device launched in September.

Honor didn’t provide many details while announcing the earbuds but confirmed a few other features outside of the temperature monitoring. The Earbuds 3 Pro’s basic features include adaptive active noise cancellation that will adjust for the wearer depending on their listening environment. The earbuds will have a coaxial dual-driver design with an 11mm driver coupled with a high-resolution ceramic tweeter with enhanced sound details and bass. They claim to have up to 24 hours of battery life before their charging case is fully discharged, as well as fast charging that can provide two hours of music playback with just five minutes of charging. What’s more, the earbuds are IP54 certified, while the case received IP52, meaning that small splashes of water and sweat will not be an issue for gym users.

The earbuds and the case, priced at €199 (US$222), will be available in white, black and gray colors, and support Bluetooth 5.2 for connectivity which offers 10-meter range. The release dates will vary depending on the country and region.(SD-Agencies)
