LG India has launched two ToneFree Wireless Earbuds – HBS-FN7 and HBS-FN6 – in India. These ToneFree TWS earphones come with a UVnano charging case that can sanitize these buds and eliminate 99 percent of the bacteria. On FN7 Sanitization and charging status are indicated by LED indicators.
However, that’s not all there is to look forward to. The ToneFree HBS FN7 and HBS FN6 have technology from Meridian Audio. The companion ToneFree app that’s available for Android and iOS lends access to Meridian’s EQ that has 4 audio presets to finetune these buds in line with the listener’s individual preferences.
The ToneFree FN7 have active noise cancellation, three microphones, silicon-infused drivers, and adjustable ear gels with patented twist-fit Vortex Ribs design. These are IPX4 splash-proof and are rated to last for 15 hours with ANC turned on. Just 5 minutes of charging can add up to 1 hour of playtime.
