Yamaha TW-E3B

Features

Overview: The Yamaha TW-E3B True Wireless Earbuds let you experience Yamaha True Sound without annoying wires. The earbuds are IPX5-rated for water- and sweat resistance, and feature Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX for a stable wireless connection. Onboard controls let you listen to your favorite tunes, make and receive phone calls, and activate Siri and Google Assistant. The TW-E3B includes a compact charging case, 4 pairs of ear tips (L, M, S, XS), and a USB-C charging cable. The TW-E3B True Wireless Earbuds are slightly smaller and lighter than their predecessor, the TW-E3A.

Bluetooth 5.0: The TW-E3B is equipped with Bluetooth Version 5.0 which gives you high quality streaming along a stable wireless connection. Supported profiles include A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, and HSP. The earbuds support SBC and AAC codecs, as well as Qualcomm aptX for high quality audio. Also supported is Qualcomm's TrueWireless Stereo Plus (TWS+) for added stability. The Bluetooth range is approximately 33 feet (10 meters) and up to 3 devices can be registered to the earphones, but only one at a time can be paired.

Voice Assistant: The earbuds give you access to your favorite phone-based Voice Assistant, including Siri and Google Assistant. When connected via Bluetooth, you can press the button on the right earbud to start your voice assistant. With the voice assistant, you can make a hands-free phone call, request a song, get a weather update, or listen to the news.

Listening Care: The Yamaha True Wireless Earbuds feature Listening Care, which provides a boost to low- and high-end frequencies when listening at low volumes. Listening Care corrects the sound balance to give you optimum sound to match the volume. The feature is easier on your ears because it prevents you from having to raise the volume to excessive levels.

Yamaha Headphones Controller App: The Yamaha Headphones Controller app helps provide easy operation of your earphones from your smart phone or tablet. You can view the status of your earphones, including battery power and settings. You can activate Listening Care, and set the Auto Power Off timer setting. The firmware of the earphones can also be updated through the Headphones Controller app. The app is available from the App Store for devices running iOS 11.0 or later, and from Google Play for devices running Android 7.0 and up.

IPX5: The TW-E3Bs have an IPX5 waterproof rating, allowing you to wear the earbuds while working out or in inclement weather. If exposed to water, the earbuds should be throroughly dried before placing them back in the charging case. The charging case and included USB cable are not waterproof.

Power: Each earbud and the charging case have a built-in Lithium-ion rechargeable battery. The earbuds charge inside of the charging case. The earbuds have a battery life of approximately 6 hours of continuous playback. With a fully charged charging case, the earbuds can recharge fully 3 additional times, for a total of 24 hours of total playback time. The charging case and the earbuds take approximately 2 hours to charge. In the Headphones Controller app, you can set the Auto Power-off Timer to 5 min, 30 min, 1 hour, or 3 hours.

Onboard Controls: The TW-E3B ear buds have function keys on both sides for operating the earbuds:

Single Earbud Use: You can choose to pair a single earbud with the Bluetooth device, however, some of the functions become unavailable. The Left and Right function keys work the same no matter if one or two earbuds are paired. With a single earbud in use, you can only turn the volume up or down, depending on which earbud you use. Since the functions for the left earbud are not designed for phone call control, you should use the right earbud for talking on the phone.
