LG is, as most of you know, one of the largest tech companies in the world. This company is best known for manufacturing smartphones and various other appliances we use around the house on a daily basis, but LG’s ‘Tone’ headphones are also quite popular.

The LG Tone Platinum headphones will be showcased at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona alongside LG X cam, X screen, and of course, LG’s flagship, the LG G5. The LG Tone Platinum headphones look really sleek, and sport an ergonomic design.

The company has opted for the Balanced Armature design as the module fo these headphones, in order to minimize distortion. The LG Tone Platinum headphones come with the aptX HD Audio Codec in order to approve sound quality over Bluetooth, and minimize latency. The noise canceling dual microphones are also included her, which should help you out if you’re located in noisy environments. Now, LG has also included Voice Commands as part of the package, with the help of which you can control incoming calls. The Tone & Talk app has also been improved in order to support Voice Memo and Find Me via Android-powered devices (Android 4.1+).
