Motorola Unveils New Wireless Headphones

By TechTaffy Desk

[Techtaffy Newsdesk]

Motorola has launched a new wireless stereo headphone, the Motorola S11-FLEX HD, that can stream music up to 150 feet from your smartphone or music player. The earphones also come with five feature adjustments for a custom fit.

Dickon Isaacs (Design director, Consumer Experience Design, Motorola Mobility): It’s a custom-fit world with fashion, furniture and even food being created to fit the unique needs of every individual – we decided technology shouldn’t be any different.  Just a  five-minute charge powers the headphones for an hour. A 15-minute charge can deliver your favorite workout tracks for up to three hours.

The S11-FLEX HD will be available beginning October this year at Best Buy and online for $129.99.
