Dyson recently introduced a new pair of over-the-ear headphones called OnTrac. These headphones are different from Dyson’s previous Zone headphones as they are focused solely on delivering audio without the need for a mouth-wrapping air purifier. The OnTrac headphones are priced at $500 and are designed for audiophiles and those looking for high-quality sound.
The design of the OnTrac headphones is customizable, allowing users to switch out ear cushions and outer caps of the earcups to change colors. Initially, there will be four color options available, with more choices expected to be added later. The headphones also feature noise-canceling technology that can reduce up to 40 decibels of noise and offer an impressive battery life of 55 hours under normal use.
While the OnTrac headphones are not yet available for purchase, they are expected to start at $500 with additional customization options available at higher price points. In addition to this exciting audio technology development, other notable tech news includes the success of Amazon’s Prime Day, which saw sales amounting to $14.2 billion, an increase from the previous year.
Google also teased its upcoming Pixel 9 Pro, showcasing the phone’s integration with Gemini AI software and hinting at more details to come on August 13. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Google’s second foldable phone, was also previewed on the company’s website. As technology continues to advance, concerns about the role of AI and chatbots in human interactions have become increasingly relevant.

As we navigate the ever-changing landscape of technology, it is essential to consider the ethical and social implications of these advancements. Stay tuned for more updates on the latest tech developments and innovations shaping our future.
