The economy of mobile telephony, at the manufacturers tends to be based on three axes. The first is obviously the smartphone, which generates visibility, but less and less profit. The second is the accessories that revolve around mobile, which are the best source of profits. And the last applications and value-added service. Besides Apple controls almost all the iPhone line, few manufacturers to rely on the three pillars. Samsung is one of them. Microsoft, too, thanks to the legacy of division Nokia Devices & Services. The Redmond stuff growing its catalog of accessories. The latest is called Hoop by Coloud.
Hoop by Coloud is a pair of in-ear headphones for use with a Nokia smartphone, but that should be compatible with many smartphones. Developed in partnership with Coloud, a young Scandinavian brand dedicated to audio accessories (proximity between Finland and Sweden has certainly helped a lot in the signing of the partnership), Hoop is especially important to athletes. Headphones are ergonomic. The materials are intended to be very light. And above all, the construction is certified waterproof and dust-proof. No risk therefore runs in the rain and sweats…
