Brand new earbuds, similar to Apple AirPods, arrived in an appealing color replacement for the old pair.
In the realm of high-end tech, it takes a real powerhouse to dethrone Apple, but that's exactly what Technics achieved when they released the EAH-AZ100 earbuds earlier this year. I've been a loyal AirPods Pro user for the past five years, but these bad boys have become my go-to ever since.
To celebrate their 60th anniversary in style, Technics has released a chic new color variant: champagne gold. Some might say, "gold," but whatever you call it, the burnished, brushed finish looks nothing short of sleek and sophistication personified. In addition to the new kid on the block, you can still choose between silver and black, ensuring there's something for every taste. And if you're into limited-edition goods, fear not—Technics hinted they're cooking up more color options for the AZ100 down the line.
When I first reviewed the earbuds, I was blown away by their balanced sound, which manages to pack a punch without compromising on details. That said, the real game-changer has been the earbuds' multipoint connection options. While Apple's AirPods Pro are famous for their seamless auto-swapping between Apple devices, Technics comes pretty close—especially when you set up multipoint with an Apple Watch Series 10 and an iPhone 15 Pro.
Transitions between devices are nearly always smooth as butter. For instance, I can start playing audio on my watch before heading out for a run, and everything just works—no hassle, no fuss. Sure, it might not blow your mind, but how often does perfection come without a steep price tag?
If you're looking to branch out from the Apple bubble and want to own a pair of truly impressive earbuds in a striking color, you might want to consider Technics and their champagne gold AZ100 earbuds. Why not, indeed?
