There are only a handful of phone manufacturers that are yet to announce TWS earbuds. Two members of this small group are HTC and OnePlus, but a new leak points at HTC exiting the group soon.
In the coming weeks, HTC may announce its very first TWS earbuds. The earbuds which are named HTC U Ear have been seen on the FCC’s website. The listing includes images too, so we know what it looks like.
HTC has adopted a design similar to that of the AirPods for its TWS earbuds. They come in black and have a gloss finish. The case is shaped like a cube with rounded corners. Unlike the AirPods that sit in the case vertically, the HTC U Ear lies horizontally in the case, thanks to the position of the magnetic charging contacts which are positioned vertically along the stem of the earbuds.
The case charges via USB Type-C but there is no mention of support for wireless charging.
We do not know when HTC will announce the earbuds and how much it will cost. We also cannot say if this is actually a product from HTC or from InOne Smart Technology, the company that licensed the HTC name and went on to announce the Wildfire X in India last year.
