Wireless headphone maker Bragi has introduced a new set of Bluetooth earbuds, called The Headphone, ahead of Apple’s announcement that it’s doing away with the headphone jack in the iPhone 7. The new offering is a stripped-down version of the company’s Dash headphones, ditching the built-in storage and fitness sensors to get the price down to $149. The Bluetooth 4.0 earbuds boast a 6-hour battery life (up to 250 hours in standby mode) and a charge time of less than 2 hours. Three buttons on the side of one earbud give users the option to skip tracks, take calls, and deliver voice commands through the built-in headset microphone. Small, medium and large FitTips provide options to find a comfortable fit and passive noise isolation technology can be turned on to keep distracting noise out. Bragi says The Headphone will start shipping in November, and customers can currently pre-order at a reduced $119 presale price.
