Taking a quick look at LG's answer to the AirPods with the Tone Free
Upon first glance, the design that LG is going with for the Tone Free looks just like any other pair of earbuds in the company's Tone lineup. However, unlike traditional Tone earbuds that are attached inside the casing via a wire, the tips of the Tone Free pop out of the frame and are then placed in your ears without any wires present whatsoever. The look of the earbuds themselves are more reminiscent to Samsung's Gear IconX than anything else, and when the earbuds are placed back into the body that you can easily wear around your neck when you aren't using them, they'll start charging up. LG is also selling an extra little charging bank that you'll be able to place the Tone Free earbuds into to get some extra juice, but no pricing info has been announced for this accessory.
In fact, no sort of exact pricing or release information has been announced at all for the Tone Free. The LG representative we spoke to said that the company is planning to release them sometime around March of this year, but they weren't able to offer any details in regards to how much these things might cost when they are made available for purchase. Until then, feel free to check out the gallery below to get an idea for just how LG's wireless earbud solution will look once they're released.
