Nintendo releases The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom earbuds

Published:

Nintendo has partnered with OTL Technologies to produce a set of truly wireless earphones based on The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Realm.

At the time of writing they appear to be available in the UK and Ireland only for online purchase. My Nintendo Store. They cost £34.99/€39.99. The earbuds are available to buy now in three different colours: white, black and green. In the UK, it looks like the green pair has already sold out.

The whole package is aesthetically very pleasing, with each of the three color versions having a distinct secondary color. Tears of the Kingdom The game’s logo appears on the front of the charging case, while the iconic Triforce symbol is etched on both earbuds.

According to the store page, these headphones are described as providing a “full, rich, and clear audio experience with deep bass, smooth mids, and crystal-clear highs.” They feature Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, meaning they should pair wirelessly with your Nintendo Switch or mobile device without a hitch.

As you might expect from gaming headphones in this relatively low price range, battery life doesn’t seem particularly impressive: They last for six hours on a single charge, and the charging case offers “three consecutive charges” – meaning you’ll get a total of 24 hours before you need to recharge the case via USB Type-C.

Again, at this price point we wouldn’t expect really high-quality sound, no matter what the store page says. But if you’re a portable Switch player and need an affordable pair of wireless earbuds, these Tears of the Kingdom models may be perfect for you, especially if you like their aesthetic.
