Crosscall launches x-vibes, its first universal bone conduction headset

   - October 3, 2022

Crosscall, the French manufacturer of ultra-resistant, waterproof and durable smartphones and tablets, unveils its new universal accessory: a bone-conduction Bluetooth headset, a technology that provides optimal listening comfort while keeping the ears free to remain aware of one's surroundings. Waterproof, durable and long-lasting, X-VIBES incorporates Crosscall's DNA at the heart of its design, to accompany users in all their day-to-day activities, on the move, at work or during their sports session.

HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF BONE CONDUCTION?

Thanks to this technology, your ears remain free and fully aware of the sounds around you. Whether you're on the move, at work or out for a morning jog, you can enjoy high-quality audio content while staying connected to your environment. Hear oncoming traffic or the sound of a fire alarm for added security.

Unlike conventional or air conduction, which sends sound waves from the ear canal to the eardrums, bone conduction headphones transmit them by vibration over the temporal bone, directly to the inner ear.

Beethoven himself had this revolutionary idea: to continue composing music despite his deafness, the musician clamped a rod between his teeth which transmitted the vibrations of the piano to his jaw.

Unlike conventional headphones or earphones, the listening mode of the X-VIBES allows you to enjoy your music for longer, as it doesn't overload your eardrums. As a result, the risk of tinnitus, which affects 39% of French people according to an Ifop survey, is limited.

BEHIND THE SCENES OF THE X-VIBES

THE WHOLE DNA CROSSCALL IN TERMS OF SUSTAINABILITY

The X-VIBES incorporates the DNA of the French brand: it can withstand the most critical conditions (rain, snow, extreme temperatures...) thanks to its resistance (drops from a height of 1m80) and waterproofing. Certified IP67, it can withstand immersion under 1m of water. The main microphone is covered with a micro-perforated GORETM membrane that protects against liquids while allowing air to pass through, providing optimal sound in all circumstances. The USB-C connector is also waterproof, and the addition of a cap enhances its protection against sweat, salt water, chlorinated water... So you can listen to podcasts and make calls in demanding environments, without fear.
Finally, X-VIBES comes with a 2-year warranty
