Panasonic has just announced a new pair of cheap wireless earbuds with its open ear Panasonic RB-F10 earphones.

Like other open ear designs, rather than sitting inside your ear, these earbuds sit over your ear canal. This allows you to hear your music clearly, but also, because your ear isn’t blocked, you can hear what’s going on around you.

The Panasonic RB-F10s specifically come with a few handy features.

They boast Bluetooth 5.4 with multipoint, so you can easily switch their connection between two different devices. They also feature built-in microphones for voice calls with automatic background noise removal, allowing you to be heard more clearly.

Additionally, they have a seven-hour battery life, which can be extended by a further 18 hours using their charging case.

Étant donné que les écouteurs à oreille ouverte sont généralement plus volumineux que les écouteurs classiques, ils disposent souvent de haut-parleurs plus grands, offrant ainsi une qualité sonore plus riche. C'est ce que promet Panasonic avec son nouveau modèle RB-F10. Le meilleur dans tout cela, c'est que ces écouteurs sont proposés à seulement 79,99 € (environ 110 $ / 165 AUD), ce qui en fait un choix abordable dans la catégorie des écouteurs à oreille ouverte. S'ils tiennent leurs promesses, ils pourraient devenir une option économique de premier ordre dans notre guide des meilleurs open ear headphones.

Les écouteurs à oreille ouverte sont les meilleurs

Les écouteurs à oreille ouverte offrent une expérience d'écoute unique qui allie confort et conscience de votre environnement. Idéaux pour les activités en extérieur, les déplacements ou pour rester vigilant tout en profitant de votre musique préférée, ces écouteurs se placent à l'extérieur de l'oreille, permettant au son de passer sans bloquer le bruit ambiant. Leur conception ouverte procure une qualité sonore naturelle et un confort pour une utilisation prolongée, ce qui en fait un choix populaire pour ceux qui privilégient la sécurité et la praticité sans compromettre la clarté audio.

I adore open ear headphones, and recently converted my fiancée to the lifestyle as well.

We love to watch videos or listen to music on our phones, but it’s easy for it to become a competition as we each try to drown the other’s audio out by turning up our speakers louder and louder. We’ve tried using over-ear noise-cancelling headphones, but then it’s impossible for us to talk to each other, especially if one of us is trying to shout for the other from another room.

Open ear headphones strike the perfect balance because we can enjoy our own private audio, but still call out to each other or easily come in and start chatting without having to compete with noise cancelling tech.

They’re also ideal for working out (especially running, as you can enjoy your motivational audio and still hear what’s going on around you), or while traveling, as you can keep an ear out for any public transport announcements that you might miss if ANC is turned on.

I’ve also found that they’re hooked design is generally comfortable yet secure. I’ve tested several open ear headphones designs, and I frequently forget to take them off even when I’m not playing any music because I just forget I have them on.

Lastly, as is true for other earbuds, their small case makes them so easy to carry with you. Unlike a pair of headphones, you can get away with your pockets rather than needing to bring a bag as you can transport your cans when you aren’t wearing them.

Now we haven’t yet tested the Panasonic RB-F10 earphones, but they look like they tick a lot of essential boxes on paper, which could make them a solid choice if you’re after the convenience of open ear headphones that I and others are already enjoying.
