CES 2026: Novel Headphones Roll into Speakers
30 Jan
Summary
- New Neo headphones convert into a Bluetooth speaker.
- Kickstarter campaign launches on February 10th, 2026.
- Expected retail price is $249, with Kickstarter preorders at $179.
Tomorrow Doesn't Matter (TDM) has introduced an innovative product at CES 2026: the Neo headphones. These headphones possess a unique ability to transform into a Bluetooth speaker by simply rolling them up, allowing users to share music with others.
The crowdfunding campaign for the Neo headphones is scheduled to begin on February 10th, 2026, via Kickstarter. The product is anticipated to launch in July 2026 with a retail price of $249. However, early supporters can pre-order them for a discounted price of $179 through the Kickstarter campaign.
Each earcup of the Neo headphones features both inward and outward-facing 40mm drivers. In headphone mode, only the inward-facing drivers are active for a private listening experience. When rolled into speaker mode, the outward-facing drivers are automatically engaged, though a manual toggle button is also available.
Initial hands-on impressions from CES 2026 noted the headphones were somewhat heavy due to their internal components. Nevertheless, the transition between modes was found to be quick, easy, and even enjoyable.
