Currently, the website is unsure whether this new release will launch as Glass Purple or Glass Violet. Nonetheless, the leaked photos confirm that Sony’s new earbuds feature a glossy finish on most areas, including its charging case and USB adapter. Sony has applied a matte finish to high wear areas like the inside of each earbud, though.
The new Glass Purple or Glass Violet release should retain the same hardware as existing models (curr. $238 on Amazon). Thus, the earbuds will feature 8.4 mm drivers, active noise cancellation (ANC) and up to 24 hours of battery life with ANC switched off. Presumably, pricing will remain unchanged at $239, too.
