They&#8217;re more than just technology you can wear, though: A wearable usually has Bluetooth connectivity as well as sensors that track step count, heart rate, and other biometric data. But in the last few years, wearables have migrated&nbsp;to the ear and to the wish list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">THE HEARABLE<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s right, you can now wear smart technology in your ears. This kind of device is called a&nbsp;<em>hearable<\/em>. The market is too broad for any one definition to fully describe what a hearable is, but a good working definition is a wireless in-ear micro-computer. Some hearables are as simple as earbuds that enhance your music-listening experience. Others are hearing aids that double as sophisticated wellness trackers. Below are features you&#8217;ll commonly find in different hearables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Connectivity.<\/strong>&nbsp;Sync to a smartphone, tablet, or smart home device.<\/li><li><strong>Biometric tracking.<\/strong>&nbsp;Track your steps, your heart rate, or even your running pace with sensors embedded in the hearable.<\/li><li><strong>Improved sound quality.<\/strong>&nbsp;Drawing on technology used in today&#8217;s hearing aids, you can enjoy noise-canceling capabilities or choose how much environmental sound you want. For example, you can allow just enough noise to ensure you remain aware of traffic.<\/li><li><strong>Translation.<\/strong>&nbsp;Have a foreign language translated to your native language in real time.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NOTABLE HEARABLES<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>What does all this look like in action? Let&#8217;s check out some of the hearables currently on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jabra.com\/sports-headphones\/jabra-sport-pace\" target=\"_blank\">Jabra Sport Pace<\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Listen to music, talk on the phone, and switch between the two seamlessly during your running workout with these wireless earbuds that connect via Bluetooth to your smartphone.<\/strong>\u00a0They&#8217;re sweat and weather resistant and, with the Jabra Sport Life app, you can monitor your pace.
