PRESS RELEASE
LONDON — Aug. 30, 2018 — Jaybird, a leader in sport headphones for runners, announced today Jaybird X4 Wireless Sport Headphones - the next evolution of the award-winning X-series designed for the all-around runner and outdoor athlete. Not only sweat proof but now also waterproof with a more comfortable fit, custom sound and eight hours of battery life, these headphones will have you covered no matter where adventure takes you - from mountain trails to city streets.
"From trail runs and mountain bike rides to summit scrambles and deep powder days, our passion for the outdoors drives our innovation," said Jamie Parker, CEO of Jaybird. "The new Jaybird X4 embodies that spirit of versatility - it's comfortable, rugged and fully waterproof to tackle any run, ride or trail in any condition."
With a its rugged build, X4 is designed for people who are on the move: runners, bikers, hikers and anyone in between. In addition to being sweatproof, the IPX7 waterproof rating means that X4 can handle any inclement weather you encounter: rain, snow or even accidental submersion down to one meter for up to 30 minutes. The buds provide improved comfort and ergonomics, with new silicon fins and ultra-soft silicon tips in several different sizes to fit almost everyone. They also come with the new exclusive-to-Jaybird Comply Ultra™ foam tips, featuring unique thermo-reactive foam that conforms to your ear canals for a comfortable and secure fit. The new Speed Cinch cord management system allows users to adjust the length of the cable to allow for the perfect under- or over-ear fit for them.
With eight hours of playtime per charge, X4 can crank out tunes during your longest run or workout. To ensure you can quickly power up and get on the trail, ten minutes of charging will give you one hour of play.
With the Jaybird app, you can customize Jaybird’s premium sound so you can hear your music, your way. The ultra slim and light weight controller allows for simplified control so you can stay focused on your surroundings without distraction. With the omnidirectional mic, your voice will be heard clearly in any environment allowing you to manage calls and voice assistants seamlessly.
