TCL unveils CrystalClip open-ear earbuds adorned with Swarovski crystals

TCL has unveiled the CrystalClip earbuds in special-edition Swarovski-crystal and standard models. The Swarovski model comes with a detachable metallic rose decorated with crystals, which can also be worn separately. The standard earphones weigh 5.5 g (0.19 oz.) each and clip onto ears using a flexible titanium alloy arch bridge while avoiding interference with eyeglasses and uncomfortable pressure on the ears. 

The earbuds utilize dual-magnetic dynamic drivers and 3D Spatial Audio technology to help create an immersive soundscape with rich audio during music playback, according to TCL. Their open-ear design allows pass-through of important sounds and speech from the surrounding environment. A dual-mic ENC system is included to reduce background call noise.

The CrystalClip earbuds have a runtime of up to 36 hours, which includes power from the charging case, and they support quick charging when empty. The Bluetooth 5.4 earphones come with touch controls and support popular voice assistants.

The standard edition has a price of €79 (~$95), with a release planned for March 2026. The Swarovski edition has a price of €149 (~$175), with a release planned for the second quarter of 2026.
