Some of the most impressive wireless products are coming from Noble Audio thanks to their FoKus series. Their Prestige and Apollo models have helped bring audiophile sensibilities to the consumer Bluetooth marker, and they look to continue that with the FoKus Rex5. These new true wireless earbuds are set to be their most advanced pair yet, with a new hybrid five-driver TWS with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC). This also marks their first collaboration with Audiodo’s sound personalization software.
Five Driver Configuration and Advanced Audio Codecs
The Noble FoKus Rex5 earbuds are designed with a hybrid five-driver configuration to deliver remarkable depth and clarity of sound – rarely achieved in true wireless audio. Each earbud combines a powerful 10mm dynamic driver, a precise 6mm planar driver, and three balanced armature drivers, creating an impressive soundstage that effortlessly delivers rich, full bass, detailed mid-tones, and crystal-clear highs across an extended frequency range of 20Hz to 40kHz.
Paired with advanced audio codecs including aptX Adaptive, and LDAC, the FoKus Rex5 seamlessly adapts to different listening sources, ensuring high-resolution audio performance that meets the standards of audiophiles and music lovers alike. This innovative combination of premium drivers and top-tier codecs sets the FoKus Rex5 apart as a truly satisfying audio option for all listeners.
Audiodo: Personalised Sound Tailored to Every Ear
Taking sound customization to new heights, the Noble FoKus Rex5 integrates Audiodo’s innovative sound personalization software that adapts audio to each user’s hearing needs. The setup process guides listeners through a unique calibration that fine-tunes audio output based on the sensitivity of each ear.
The memory capability of the QCC3091 chip stores this customized profile within the earbuds, making it accessible on any device – no app required. This feature is revolutionary for listeners with uneven hearing, delivering a balanced listening experience that adapts to individual needs.
Feature Rich with Intuitive Functionality
The Noble FoKus Rex5 earbuds excel in performance and versatility, with impressive battery life that allows up to 7 hours of playback without ANC and 5 hours with ANC activated from the earbuds. The charging carry case then adds up to 40 hours of extra playtime so you can top-up on the go. This extended playtime ensures that users can enjoy their favorite music or podcasts throughout the day with little interruption. Then, its fast charging capability means that just 15 minutes of charge time equates to approximately two hours of playtime. The sophisticated ANC technology effectively minimizes external noise, allowing for a more immersive listening experience, while the Transparency mode enables users to stay aware of their surroundings when needed.
Additionally, the onboard memory feature enhances the EQ capabilities by storing personalized sound profiles directly within the earbuds, so users can enjoy their tailored audio settings across devices and without the need for Noble’s app. Coupled with advanced features like Bluetooth 5.4 and multipoint connectivity, the FoKus Rex5 delivers flawless sound and intuitive user control for a listening journey like no other.
