Sony Debuts Glass Purple Inzone Buds, a Retro Color Refresh

The see-through finish taps nostalgia to refresh Sony’s gaming earbuds without changing the hardware.

Overview

  • Sony unveiled the Glass Purple Inzone Buds at its April 14 Inzone event, rolling them out alongside other gaming gear.
  • The update changes only the color, with ANC, low-latency 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth LE, spatial audio, tap controls, an AI mic, and Inzone Hub tuning carried over.
  • Regional rollout sets U.S. sales at $239.99 now and U.K. launch at £180 on May 1.
  • Amazon is offering a launch deal at $178 for the new color, undercutting the list price.
  • The translucent purple shell nods to late-1990s see-through gadgets, a look that has resurfaced across gaming accessories.
