Designed to simplify user experience including NFC for one-touch pairing, with a range of colours.
Creative Technology Ltd today announced the launch of their new range of speakers and headphones in India, comprising of the Creative Airwave HD, Creative Airwave and the Creative Hitz headsets. While being the first of several products that reflect the company’s incorporation of a fresh new design theme that will cut across many of its speakers and headsets this year.
On the occasion of the launch, Ernest Sim, Regional Sales Manager, Indian Subcontinent, Creative Technology Ltd said “In keeping with modern trends in industrial design, we’ve incorporated a bold triangular design into this year’s product lineup. We also understand that in today’s fast-paced world, the average consumer can be stressed and pressed for time. That’s why with the introduction of the Creative Airwave HD and the Creative Airwave wireless speakers, we paid special attention to ensure the speakers are the simplest, most hassle-free companions for any phone or tablet.”
“On the other hand with the Creative Hitz headsets, we understand that the mobile phone is the center of mobile users’ universe. They use it for everything – to watch movies and videos, listen to music, or play games. On top of this, the phone is used primarily for communications. With that in mind, we decided that it is time that even our most basic audio products are designed to be communications-friendly.” Added Ernest Sim.
Creative Airwave HD and Creative Airwave portable near-field communications (NFC) Bluetooth wireless speakers, specifically designed with clever features that fit into and simplify users’ audio experiences, while being the first of several products that reflect the company’s incorporation of a fresh new design theme. The speakers are the first of several new Creative products that feature the latest NFC technology. The feature enables users to simply tap their NFC-enabled smart device on the speaker and the two are connected instantly.
The Creative Hitz headsets also reflect the company’s incorporation of a fresh new design theme, with the headsets sporting a unique and sleek triangular design found on each individual cup. A two-tone contrast is also prominent on each headset, which showcases a high gloss premium finish. The headsets, along with other products in Creative’s new lineup, represent a company-wide recognition of sleek design as an integral part of a product’s identity. Beyond enabling call controls, the in-line microphone also houses playback controls, so users of the Creative Hitz headsets can easily manage their music and phone calls. The headsets also feature flat, tangle-free cables.
These products will be available in India end of September, 2013 at select outlets.
