Ultimate Ears, an audio electronics brand specializing in in-ear monitor (IEM) technology, has announced the release of the 'UE Drops,' which arrive as a follow-up to the company's popular 'UE Fits' model.
The UE Drops boasts a custom fit design thanks to its incorporation of Ultimate Ear's signature FitKit -- a unique at-home kit that the company mails to its customers so that they can take a physical "earprint," which will guide the construction of their pair of UE Drops.
In terms of specs, the new earphones come with 9.2mm drivers, dual beamforming microphones, sweat-resistant buds, built-in controls, and in-ear detection technology. In addition, the UE Drops have an impressive battery life, delivering eight hours of playback on a single charge.
