Urbanista returns with a pair of truly wireless earphones

Cutting the cord on a budget

We were big fans of Urbanista’s Seattle wireless headphones. In fact, the budget-priced cans are still sitting in top spot of our prestigious Top 10 for the category. Naturally, then, we’re very interested in Tokyo, the first wireless in-ear ‘phones from the stylish Stockholm-based brand. Looks-wise, Urbanista has gone for the same minimalist design as the Seattles. We’re hoping they’ll be just as comfortable, too. With a water and sweat resistance rating of IPX4, they should cope fine with a thrashing at the gym, and the inclusion of a charging case means burning through the 2.5-hour playtime won’t leave you tuneless for long. We can’t comment on sound quality yet, but at £109.99 (and with Urbanista’s track record) you could be looking at another bargain.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Spurs are going to win a trophy this season.
