DESCRIPTION/ PURPOSE: We’ve all heard of AirPods, Apple’s version of wireless earphones released back in 2016. Since then, people of all ages use them from middle schoolers to people in retirement homes, in hopes of looking for some peace. One must admit, the Airpods were a great idea and the society believed so too, seeing that since then more and more companies released earphones that are similar in design. However, if you have ever actually used Airpods or have known someone who does, you’ve probably heard of people often losing them. The wireless design makes it that these earphones are often easily lost when dropped.

The BCE – Button Cell Earphone is what’s going to pushed Airpods out of existence. Named after the button cell battery who we used as a model for design for these earphones. In simpler terms, the earphone has two parts. One part is the earphone itself. It’s small enough to fit inside the outer-part of the ear canal. The other part however is not another earpiece, it goes on the wrist. There is only one earpiece and it allows for the user to hear the music in both ears.
