vivo Philippines has added two audio wearables to its local accessory lineup: the over-ear vivo Headphones Studio and the open-ear vivo Buds Clip. The products, introduced alongside the vivo V80, are available at vivo physical stores nationwide, with availability through the vivo e-store and vivo Store app set to follow.
The two products take different approaches to everyday listening. vivo positions the Headphones Studio as its over-ear option with adaptive active noise cancellation, while the Buds Clip uses an open-ear clip-on format for users who prefer a lighter wearing style. According to vivo, both support Hi-Res Wireless Audio certification, spatial audio, tuning by the vivo Golden Ears Acoustic Lab, and triple-device connectivity across smartphones, computers, and tablets.
Headphones Studio: over-ear design and noise cancellation
The vivo Headphones Studio features 40mm dynamic drivers. vivo says the drivers are designed for a balanced sound profile with punchy bass, full-bodied mids, and refined highs. Its active noise cancellation automatically adjusts to surrounding conditions, according to the company, while its cinema-grade spatial audio is intended to create a wider soundstage for movies and music.
The vivo Headphones Studio features a 10-band equalizer for bass-to-treble adjustments, as well as physical buttons and a volume wheel. It weighs 238 grams and has soft, skin-friendly ear cushions.
vivo rates the headphones for up to 75 hours of music playback with active noise cancellation off, or up to 35 hours with it enabled. The company also says a 10-minute charge can provide up to nine hours of playback. The vivo Headphones Studio is offered in Sunlit White and Dawn Purple for Php 8,999.
Buds Clip: open-ear design and Drop Alert
The vivo Buds Clip uses an ear cartilage clip design built with memory titanium alloy. Each earbud weighs 5.2 grams and has a 12mm driver with spatial audio support. vivo says its celluloid-crafted exterior has a mother-of-pearl-inspired, pearlescent finish, and that each pair has a randomly generated texture.
For calls, vivo lists dual-microphone AI call noise cancellation and a bone-conduction voice pickup unit. The Buds Clip also includes Drop Alert: if one earbud falls off, vivo says the remaining earbud plays an alert and a notification appears on the connected phone.
Other listed functions include remote camera control, wear detection, Google Voice Assistant support, and an earphone-finding feature. vivo rates the Buds Clip for up to 42 hours of battery life and says it supports wireless charging. It is available in Stardust Black and Moonlight White for Php 7,299.
Alongside the two wearables, vivo Philippines introduced a 10,000mAh power bank with 33W fast charging for Php 1,699. The company says the power bank has a built-in USB-C cable, supports cross-brand charging for compatible Android and Apple smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, and earbuds, and is designed to meet applicable air travel requirements.
“Whether they prefer the immersive listening experience of over-ear headphones or the convenience of an open-ear design, we want to make everyday listening more comfortable, connected, and personal,” said Liu Lu, Brand Marketing Director of vivo Philippines.
