Bluetooth technology has changed beyond recognition in 20 years
Interview with Daniel Havner
Question: Twenty years is an impressive number. How much has technology moved forward in that time?
Daniel: More than 20 years ago, we watched the birth of Bluetooth technology with excitement. Since then, the technology has transformed beyond recognition. The miniature headphones, which are almost invisible to the user's ears, provide up to several hours of listening or communication on a single charge. Energy for several more charges is stored in the earphone case. Fortunately, there is always room to push the technology!
Q: How has the FIXED brand responded to such developments?
Daniel: FIXED launched the FIXED Pro series of headphones this year, which greatly enhance the user experience as well as safety. Previously, customers had to choose headphones that either had a great "seal" and didn't let surrounding noise into their ears, or on the contrary, let noise in. Both of these options come with compromises.
Q: Which compromises are we talking about and what is the solution? Which headphones to choose?
Daniel: Undisturbed listening in urban traffic is too dangerous. On the other hand, when travelling on public transport, I don't want to be disturbed by anything or anyone. Such a dilemma is eliminated with FIXED Buds Pro or FIXED Pods Pro headphones. Transparent mode connects you to your surroundings by amplifying ambient sounds into your ears, while ANC mode filters out 90% of all ambient sounds and disconnects you from your surroundings. Switching is right on the headphones and works instantly. It's no surprise that this great feature is the main strapline of FIXED's latest campaign this year.
