You might know Fairphone for its smartphones that come with lengthy support periods and repairable designs. However, the company also has a pair of sustainable headphones in the work. Fairbuds XL will be made using eco-friendly materials and offer easy repairability. While there’s no official launch date yet, a new report has shared detailed images of the hearables in two colors with a recycled plastic design. Let’s have a look.
Fairbuds XL are Made using Recycled Plastic
Fairbuds XL will debut as over-ear headphones that follow the same sustainable credentials as the brand’s smartphone. Leaked images of the hearables, shared by Winfuture, suggest they are made using recycled plastic materials. The speckles of different colors on the body of the headphones indicate the use of various colored plastic particles. Moreover, there are easily accessible screws that will make repairing any broken component easy. Their battery is also said to be easily replaceable.
Most hardware details of the Fairbuds XL are still anyone’s guess. The publication points out that the headphones could rely on a joystick and a physical button. The headphones will recharge their batteries via a USB Type-C port located within their right earcup. The leaked images suggest that there are four microphones, with most of them on the right earcup. The Fairphone headphones will come with a focus on repairability, but they are said to be in no way inferior than the products offered by the competition.
Although the launch of Fairbuds XL is expected soon, there has been no official confirmation yet. However, some online retail outlets have listed the headphones with a launch price of €249 (~$272) in Europe.
