In just six months the Stockholm, Sweden, based collective Urbanears has made a huge impact on the global market with their unique and multi-colored collection of headphones. Now it’s time to welcome a new product to the Urbanears family. The Medis is an unprecedented experience in ergonomics, functionality and design, taking the next step for the in-ear headphone.
What makes the Medis unique, apart from the number of color-ways, is how it sits in your ear. The Medis uses the patented EarClick solution to secure the earpiece at two separate points to the outer canal of your ear rather than one, relieving pressure to a nearly non-existent level while keeping it firmly in place.
Meaning the days of uncomfortable in-ears that repeatedly fall out are over.Like all Urbanears products, the Medis comes with a microphone and remote compatible with most devices from Nokia, Blackberry, HTC and iPhones using 3.5 mm standard. Giving it the additional function of a headset.
The Medis will be available this july in over 40 countries.
Here are the specs:
1 EarClick construction for ultimate comfort and fit.
2 Interchangeable pads in four sizes enclosed, guaranteeing a perfect fit.
3 15.4 mm handmade drivers. Frequency Response 20-20kHz • Impedance 32Ω • Sensitivity 94 dB • Max Input Power 50mW
4 120 cm / 47″ fabric cord. 5 3.5 mm stereo plug compatible with all music players using 3.5 mm standard.
5 Microphone and remote compatible with most devices from Nokia, Blackberry, HTC and iPhones using 3.5 mm standard.• One year premium replacement warranty.
Medis features the unique earclick patent securing its earpieces at two separate pressure points. This gives a snug fit at a much higher comfort while keeping the earpiece in place. For optimal fit and performance each Medis is delivered with four setups of pads in different sizes.
Correctly fitted the earpiece sits very comfortably without falling out, withstanding a reasonable amount of applied force. Additionally, the Medis rests with a distance from the ear leaving your sense of balance unaffected making it perfect for sports.
The Urbanears Medis come in twelve colors and retail for $50.
