Open-ear design for modern lifestyles
The way we listen is changing, and so are user expectations. More and more consumers are looking for solutions that are comfortable for long periods, maintain connection with the environment, and deliver high-quality audio at the same time. The open-ear design of the TCL CrystalClip addresses this need.
Thanks to air conduction technology, users remain aware of their surroundings, for example during commutes or at the office. The clip-on design rests lightly and stably on the ear without the closed-in feeling of traditional in-ear earbuds.
Weighing only 5.5 grams per earbud and with an IPX4 rating for water resistance, the TCL CrystalClip earbuds are designed for long workdays, workouts, and daily use. The titanium alloy arch bridge with memory metal structure provides flexible, pressure-free support. The clamping force is limited to 43 grams according to laboratory tests, offering stability without discomfort, even when worn with glasses.

Wearable design where technology and style come together
The TCL CrystalClip is designed as a true wearable and functions not only as an audio device but also as a subtle style accessory. The streamlined silhouette and balanced proportions ensure that the earbuds sit closely to the ear with a refined, minimalist appearance.
The Special Edition takes this concept to the next level with a detachable accessory adorned with Swarovski® crystals. This accessory can be worn on the earbuds but can also be attached separately to, for example, a bag, hat, or worn as an accessory in the hair. Thus, technology becomes an elegant and personal addition to any outfit.
Next-level audio with intelligent features
In terms of audio, the TCL CrystalClip delivers a rich and balanced listening experience thanks to a Dual-Magnetic Dynamic Driver, 3D Spatial Audio, and Bass Enhancement. This results in clear highs, layered mids, and deep bass, ideal for music, movies, podcasts, and short-form content.
For conversations and calls, dual-mic ENC noise cancellation ensures that voices remain clear, even in busy environments such as cafés or city centers.
With intuitive touch controls, you can easily activate smart features. In combination with compatible TCL AI smartphones and apps, the CrystalClip supports simultaneous interpretation, making multilingual communication during meetings, events, or travel smoother. Additionally, there is quick access to voice assistants like Siri, Google Gemini, and Google Assistant for hands-free operation.
With a total battery life of up to 36 hours and fast charging that provides hours of playback time in just a few minutes, the TCL CrystalClip remains effortlessly active during busy days. Bluetooth 5.4 and seamless switching between two devices make it easy to switch between smartphone, tablet, and other connected devices.
