Amazing backers,

Sorry for our lack of communication. We made the decision to stop sending out information that was not 100% confirmed as we didn’t want it to lead to any more misunderstandings. That goes for the direct messages as well, as we wanted to put all of our focus on development.

We are glad to announce that we currently have a working prototype with the quality standards and a majority of the features we set out to have when we started this project. Below is the information and details we have at the moment. Launch date is set for no later than the month of October.

Name 

The product will be called ‘Nivå.’ The word means “level” in Swedish (as in “next level”). We wanted the name to appeal more to our Swedish heritage and source of inspiration.

The earbuds 

You can see on the image below that the shape of the earbud is different from what we initially planned. This is partly because the components we are now using have a different shape. It is also because we wanted to decrease the size of the earbud in order to achieve a more discrete and slimmed design, especially compared to the existing true wireless products currently on the market. The earbuds will come with three different earbud tip sizes and one “sports-tip” (shaped as a wing for an even better stay-in-ear fit). The button will be placed on the outside with a different nuance of colour.

They will come in black and in white as promised. The white earbuds have a rose gold covering on the button to appeal to the more aesthetic demanding customer and the black earbuds will be all black for the consumer who is looking for a more simple look. They both have glossy edges and are matte on the side looking outward.

The Charger 

The design of the charger is designed to be both an interior design piece for your cupboard or in your home in general, but also be practical and smooth functioning for on-the-go use. It has the look of a hockey puck with magnets both for the small lid and on the craters where you place the earbuds for charging. The charger is charged through a discrete micro usb port in the back. Micro-usb cable is included. Furthermore, the charger will come with a real leather strap for carrying.

Functionality and tech 

When you take the earbuds out from the charger and hold the “play”- button for 3 seconds, they are activated. The earbuds are then automatically synced with each other. The pairing with Bluetooth devices is made by simply holding the play button an additional 3 seconds. You will only have to pair them with your bluetooth device once, thereafter it is made automatically. For Mono listening, you simply put one away in the case. The microphone will be on the right earbud for a great talking experience. The bluetooth chip used is called Airoha1511. As opposed to the CSR chip, this chip has better size and above all, excellent connectivity. Battery lifetime: 12h (1 charge 3h, 3 recharges possible).
