Boat Lifestyle has just announced the launch of its brand new neckband-style wireless earphones in India. Called Boat Rockerz 275, the earphones “deliver an energetic, powerful & inspirational sound while keeping the bass level high”, according to the company.
Hardware Specifications
The Boat Rockerz 275 comes with Bluetooth v4.1, and is powered by Qualcomm’s CSR 8635 Chipset. It comes with 12mm dynamic drivers and has a frequency range of 20Hz – 20kHz. It also has an impendance of 32ohm, and a sound-to-noise ratio of 102dB at 1KHz. The frequency response will be between 20Hz-20kHz. Last, but definitely not the least, the device also has a built-in vibration motor that allows users to get instant call alerts through vibrations.
The earphones comply with the A2DP V1.2 and AVRCP V1.4 standards, and come with a 150mAh/3.7V rechargeable Li-Polymer battery that the company claims will deliver up to 10 hours of audio streaming and 200 hours of standby. The device can apparently get fully-charged in just 2 hours with the bundled USB cable, and is said to draw enough juice in 20 minutes to work uninterrupted for 1-2 hours.
Additional Features
The Boat Rockerz 275 also comes with an IPX5 rating that denotes resistance to dust and water. What it means in real-life is that the device will not be affected by sweat or the occasional droplets of rain, although, you’ll do well to keep it out of a swimming pool. The earphones can also be connected with two phones or two Bluetooth devices at the same time, which will enable users to take calls from their phone even when streaming music from their computer.
In a press statement, the co-founder of Boat Lifestyle, Aman Gupta, said “State-of-the-art design and technology comes together in the unbelievable sound of the boAt Rockerz 275 wireless earphones. boAt Rockerz 275 is engineered impeccably to give you the best possible user experience.
