Sony Bravia Theatre U: Details

The BRAVIA Theatre U features a lightweight design with cushioned materials, ensuring a secure fit around the user’s neck without sacrificing comfort. It includes adjustable features to accommodate various head sizes, enhancing overall wearability.

These wearable speakers incorporate Sony's X-Balanced Speaker unit, which the company claims enhances movies and dramas with cinema-quality audio. Users can connect two BRAVIA Theatre U speakers to a single TV or other devices using the Speaker Add function, which also allows individual volume control.

Sony said that it has designed the speakers with advanced noise isolation technology to minimise external sound leakage. They also include AI-powered Precise Voice Pickup technology, which isolates the speaker’s voice from background sounds during phone and video calls.

When connected to a TV, users can opt to play sound through the BRAVIA Theatre U speakers simultaneously with the TV’s built-in speaker for an even more immersive experience. The speakers feature multipoint connectivity, enabling users to switch between audio from two devices.

The Sony BRAVIA Theatre U neckband speakers have a splash-proof design with an IPX4 rating for resistance against water ingress. Regarding battery life, Sony claims the speakers provide 12 hours of battery life on a single charge and feature quick charge functionality, offering an hour of playback after just 10 minutes of charging.
