The VIE SHAIR headphones are specially designed to help consumers solve the dilemma of how to listen to music in an office environment without missing important work-related alerts.
The VIE SHAIR headphones differ from other wireless headphones in a number of important ways. For one, the headphones feature a unique air frame that allows the users to switch between open air and closed air listening depending on their surroundings. The minimal-contact design ensures that users can listen to their music privately, while still retaining the ability to pick up on ambient noises such as phone calls or co-workers trying to get their attention. In fact, the user can even carry on a conversation with those around them without ever needing to remove the headphones.
The VIE SHAIR headphones are ideal for those working in open office spaces who need to keep an ear open for work-related notifications.
