The new IFROGZ wireless earbuds lineup was designed to combine outstanding sound with a more lightweight, comfortable listening experience by alleviating bulky earbuds and heavy control modules. The new lineup moves this technology to an innovative new wireless controller that magnetically clips to your shirt. Phone call and music controls remain easily within reach while you seamlessly connect to your devices, and the magnetic storage clip is perfect for cable management when the earbuds are not in use.

With 67 percent of all Bluetooth headphones priced above $50¹, according to The NPD Group, the new IFROGZ wireless earbuds lineup is attractively priced under $40 to deliver outstanding Bluetooth audio to the masses. All products are designed to resist sweat, deliver up to 10 hours² of battery life on a single charge, and feature the new IFROGZ Earbud Tips for Life™ limited lifetime warranty. If your earbud tips get worn, damaged or lost, IFROGZ will replace them – no questions asked³.

“With Bluetooth firmly established as the de facto wireless connectivity standard for mobile computing devices, we are excited to introduce our new lineup of wireless earbuds,” said Chris Paterson, vice president of product management and development at ZAGG. “We believe these products are not only priced to make Bluetooth more attainable, but also contain a rich feature set that will satisfy even the most discerning customer.”

IFROGZ Bluetooth wireless earbuds launching in September include:

• Plugz Wireless ($29.99 SRP) – the wired Plugz earbud line has been one of the top selling headphones in the U.S. for the past several years.

• Charisma Wireless ($29.99 SRP) – With women representing half of all Bluetooth device sales, the female-inspired Charisma earbuds are designed by women, for women, and feature an ergonomic, stylish design with 6mm drivers for a more custom female fit.
