TWS (true wireless) earphones are certainly in demand with all major smartphone vendors having at least one such product in their portfolio. Design-wise the TWS Neo look nearly identical to their predecessors with a stem in-ear approach and oval-shaped carrying case. Color options will be limited to white and black and the accompanying product video promises good sound quality and low latency. The TWS Neo is scheduled to arrive on June 1 alongside the Vivo X50 series smartphones. In the online post, the company shared a small teaser video that showcased the upcoming truly wireless earbuds and its charging case as well.
