Which headphones to take to a desert island? FIXED Buds Pro!

Questions for Radek Sekyra , FIXED product developer

Radek, we have a campaign for the new PRO series headphones. Can you introduce them? Why do you want them?

Radek: Because they're just great :-) No, really... we have two product lines our audio range - the "classic" line, where the headphones have to sound great and be affordable, and the PRO range. The criterion for PRO series headphones is simple and strict at the same time. The headphones must deliver details that people will love. For the PRO series, these include wireless charging, game mode, ANC and transparent mode. There is a focus on comfort in use. All FIXED headphones have a lot in common. Thus, all FIXED headphones have the same control style, including, for example, the original control sounds - when switching on, pairing, etc. Small details, but that's what can do a lot in the end. With our PRO series, we like to point out the difference between ANC and transparent mode, which is why we don't have ANC off in our headphones. We want to show people the great functionality when they can see the true power of ANC with one gesture on the right earpiece.

What is the biggest challenge for you as a developer? What are you excited about?

The biggest challenge for me as a developer is making headphones that people love. It's impossible to please everyone, but my goal is to make at least the majority happy. I want people to say "Yes! I'm not taking the FIXED headphones out of my ears. They sound great, the developers have thought about the details and they're beautiful in design."

What is the role of testing of the product before launch?

Testing is very important at FIXED. Before a product hits the stores, I have to go through a number of samples, looking for the best FIXED could have. Similarly, in my group of testers are colleagues with different types of headphone use, each one suits something different, each one has different knowledge, insights and different hearing.

Desert Island for the rest of your life. Headphones. Which ones?

Definitely Buds Pro. In the past I didn't like earbuds, this model was the first one that stayed in my ears, didn't fall out when running and after the first time I put them on I fell in love with these headphones. They sound great and the ANC works as it should. I also used the headphones with high intensity during my trip to Asia in October. I had the headphones in my ears the entire flight just to use the ANC and slept through the entire flight without disturbance. I was surprised by the battery life, the battery dropped by a maximum of 20% (I was using purely ANC only - no music playing). I use the headphones for running, training and sporting activities mainly because of their size and how perfectly they fit in my ears.
