Audio accessories brand Ultimate Ears has unveiled its UE Drops earbuds which are custom-made to fit as in-ear monitors. The UE Drops is a custom-fit model with a FitKit preceding the delivery of the earbuds. The earbuds are priced at $449 and are available in the US via the Ultimate Ears website.

The FitKit will be shipped to the buyer once an order for the UE Drops is made. This includes the technology and information to guide you through the process of getting your in-ear measurement (the earprint). It will guide you to take impressions of your ear with the aid of an app.

Logitech-owned Ultimate Ear says the custom-made earbuds are molded on the basis of the earprint measurement from the kit. The molding of the earbuds is via a warming process while an attachment is what is plugged in. The pair of UE Drops earbuds can be delivered within 4 weeks after the company receives the FitKit. The UE Drops bear some similarities with the UE Fits from 2020. The UE Fits are TWS earbuds with fancy technology that mold the tips to fit into your ears.

Sound is supplied in the UE Drops by 9.2mm drivers and the company says the sound output is of great quality. The earbuds provide passive noise isolation due to their in-ear design, but Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is absent. A transparency mode is also available and allows the user to feel the surroundings.

The earbuds are water- and sweat-resistant and have a number of nice features. In-ear detection and wireless charging are also featured on the UE Drops. The earbuds can deliver up to 8 hours of activity on a single charge plus 14 additional hours using the charging case. The device can be fully charged within 40 minutes, while the UE Drops app provides lots of information and options on the device. The earbuds are compatible with both Android and iOS devices.
