TECHWEEK
At the IFA 2024 exhibition taking place these days in Berlin, the Japanese company Panasonic presented new wireless over-ear headphones RB-M600B and in-ear model RZ-B120W .
Panasonic RB-M600B full-size wireless over-ear headphones will replace the popular RB-M500B model in the company’s product range, but will be located higher in the hierarchy of wireless headphones. The manufacturer emphasizes the ability of the new product to generate “super-low bass” and long battery life, which will allow them to compete with the main leaders of the mid-price range, including Sony ULT Wear headphones.
The Panasonic RB-M600B headphones feature the company’s proprietary XBS Deep (eXtra Bass System), which, according to the manufacturer, will allow the 30mm wide-range speakers to deliver deeper and more accurate bass. This system works in many of the company’s models, including the RB-M300B, RB-M500B, and RB-M700B.
The Panasonic RB-M600B over-ear headphones support Bluetooth version 5.3 with multipoint connection (up to two sources) and provide a long battery life of up to 65 hours. The new product is equipped with a hybrid noise cancellation system ANC, which allows the headphones to block a wider range of noise using internal and external microphones.
The Panasonic RZ-B120W in-ear wireless headphones , according to the manufacturer, will compete with the recently released Sony WF-C510 model and the popular Sony WF-C700N headphones. As with the new full-size Panasonic headphones, the key argument in favor of buying the RZ-B120W, according to the manufacturer, is the “powerful bass sound” provided by 7-mm wide-range dynamic emitters with the same proprietary XBS Deep technology.
The Panasonic RZ-B120W in-ear headphones support Bluetooth 5.3 and provide 6.5 hours of listening time on a single charge, while a backup battery in the storage and carrying case adds another 19.5 hours of music playback. The new product is IPX4 certified for water and dust protection, meaning the headphones should withstand rain or exercise.
Information about the timing of the new products’ availability and recommended retail prices will appear after the exhibition.
