Best use cases

• Supervised study or collaborative classrooms where students need to stay aware
• 1:1 and take-home programs needing lightweight wireless audio
• Library/media center use where situational awareness is preferred
• Virtual learning and voice calls on the go

Classroom notes

• No active noise canceling: This model prioritizes awareness over isolation—choose ANC models if you need maximum focus in loud spaces.
• Sound leakage: Because the earbud is open-air, nearby people may hear faint audio at higher volumes.
• Wireless management: Best for 1:1 or take-home use; wired sets are often simpler for shared classroom carts.
