Panasonic continues to expand its product lineup. The company, recently in the news for its G9 Mark II camera, has now introduced another interesting product for music enthusiasts. Panasonic has announced the SC-GNW10 neck speaker, an upgraded version of its 2021 model SPEC-GN01. The new neck speaker is set to hit the market on November 17. Here are the details…

Panasonic SC-GNW10 Gaming Neck Speaker: The Perfect Audio Companion for Work, Travel, and Play

If you’re unfamiliar with them, neck speakers are a type of wearable speaker that sit on your shoulders and use vibrations to send sound waves to your inner ears. This allows you to listen to music and other audio content without the need for headphones or earbuds. Although I personally don’t see much appeal in this product, it appears that they are gaining in popularity, and brands are increasingly focusing on them. For example, Sharp recently introduced a new neck speaker. Now, Panasonic has also announced the SC-GNW10 for gamers.

The SC-GNW10 neck speaker features four 38mm speaker units, offering stereo sound. This is a significant improvement over the previous model, increasing the speaker unit size by 1.25 times. The speaker is also compatible with the Windows PC application “SOUNDSLAYER Engine,” allowing users to customize their equalizer settings according to individual preferences.

One of the standout features of the Panasonic SC-GNW10 neck speaker is its dedicated low-latency wireless connection that operates on a 2.4GHz audio signal. This ensures a lag-free audio experience. Additionally, the new model has enhanced voice chat features, including microphones on both sides to increase the audio capture area and improve sound capture capabilities. Panasonic has also upped the ante on noise and echo-canceling features.

The Panasonic SC-GNW10 gaming neck speaker offers three different audio output modes, namely RPG Mode, FPS Mode, and Voice Enhancement Mode. These modes are aimed at providing a tailored audio experience suitable for players engaged in different types of games. The neck speaker features an ergonomic design that avoids contact with the collarbone and trapezius muscles, ensuring long-term comfort. Adding a touch of style, the ends of the speaker are fitted with LED lights, claimed to “display the heartbeat feeling before starting a game.”

The SC-GNW10 is also expected to make an appearance at the 2023 Tokyo Game Show.
