Deep dive: Gen3 vs Gen2 - MagFit, secure hold and comfort
April 29

Welcome to the first in our series of deep dives on all the advancements we have made in our Gen3 Earshots. Over the coming weeks we will share the details about what makes Gen3 a truly new era in sport earbuds design.
We listened to what you wanted and have poured thousands of hours of design and engineering into giving you an incredible experience. The result is truly remarkable.
In this deep dive, we are exploring the advancements in Gen3’s MagFit, secure hold and comfort.
Introducing MagFit3
Our most advanced patented fit and comfort technology
We have worked closely with magnet manufacturers to push the boundaries of magnet design, shape and size. The result is that MagFit3, the third version of our patented technology, cushions and hugs your ear, meaning these earbuds will move the way you do.
Float like a feather
The combination of Magfit3, plus a 35% reduction in overall size, delivers a truly weightless experience.
Compared to Gen2 we have significantly reduced the footprint and weight of Gen3. The weight of an individual Gen2 earbud was 16.01grams. Gen3 individual earbud weight is 10.12, making it a 37% reduction in weight. Alongside this we have pioneered a new way of connecting the earbud to the rear. The result is they are fit beautifully with your glasses, helmets and hats.
The result is a weightless feel that gives you a new sense of freedom of movement.
Head to head: Gen2 vs Gen3 earbud size
The Gen3 earbud is 35% smaller at its base size. The addition of ear tips means you have the perfect fit for your ear and be immersed in hifi audio.
The new earbud design retains the zero ear canal pressure, but provides the benefits of increased comfort due to less size in the concha of your ear. The addition of a ear tips unlocks two key experiences; 1. Best in class in-ear audio quality 2. Option to toggle active noise cancellation on and off.
Sculpted to wrap beautifully around your ear
Our improved MagFit3 technology has enabled us truly to sculpt the Gen3 design to fit beautifully with your ear’s own curves and shapes.
