Even though Apple didn’t technically invent the true wireless earbuds concept or pioneer the rapidly growing “hearables” industry the AirPods lineup has come to easily dominate, it’s hard to deny a bunch of companies are taking their cues from said market leaders in terms of both designs and features nowadays.

The first member of the Tone Free family, unveiled around six months ago, looked nothing like the AirPods or AirPods Pro, undercutting the latter model at a recommended price of $199.99 with “advanced noise reduction” in tow, and perhaps more importantly, a truly innovative technology aimed at massively reducing bacteria on the earbud tips while charging.
