Every HDR 275 can also connect to other Auracast or Bluetooth Classic-enabled devices like tablets and smartphones for app-based streaming content.

The ‘phones also have large textured buttons for tactile control of up to 106dB or volume, power, and incoming calls.
Charge the headphones via USB-C to get up to 50 hours of listening. Both the ear cushions and battery are user replaceable. An included sturdy metal headphone stand keeps your living room, games room, bedroom, or other space neat and tidy.
