At #IFA2025, AI hardware innovator viaim proudly introduced the global press debut of its latest lifestyle audio innovation: the viaim OpenNote Earbuds. Designed for professionals and creatives alike, OpenNote blends premium aesthetics, all-day comfort, and powerful AI features into a sleek, over-the-ear form factor.
Created for those who expect their tech to perform as beautifully as it looks, OpenNote empowers users to capture ideas, manage meetings, and organize tasks—even across multiple languages. Whether you’re closing deals, jogging, commuting, or unwinding with music, OpenNote keeps you in control of your day.
According to Shawn Ma, CEO of Viaim
“With OpenNote, we’ve created more than just earbuds—we’ve built a bridge between work and personal life. It’s a productivity partner, creative collaborator, and style statement in one.”
A New Standard in AI Audio Productivity
Viaim’s OpenNote earbuds mark the latest addition to its expanding lineup of AI-powered audio tools, which began with the launch of RecDot and NoteKit at CES 2025. RecDot offers professional-grade AI recording capabilities tailored for advanced meeting capture, while NoteKit serves as a portable transcription and note management system that connects directly to laptops. With the introduction of OpenNote, Viaim completes its ecosystem—delivering seamless, intelligent solutions that transform conversations into actionable insights, whether you’re at work or enjoying personal time.
Designed for More Than Music
Unlike traditional earbuds, the Viaim OpenNote is purpose-built for both productivity and comfort. Its discreet open-ear design uses aerospace-grade memory titanium to ensure a secure, fatigue-free fit, making it ideal for extended wear in any setting. One standout feature is FlashRecord, which allows users to instantly start recording with a simple long press—no app launch or Bluetooth connection required. OpenNote supports multiple recording modes, including live recording for in-person conversations within a 7-meter range, phone call recording for platforms like Zoom, Teams, and Webex via the desktop app, and audio/video recording from sources such as podcasts, YouTube tutorials, and online courses.
Smart Features That Work for You
The Viaim OpenNote Earbuds are packed with intelligent features designed to enhance both productivity and convenience. They offer real-time transcription with smart formatting, automatic summaries, and AI-powered to-do list extraction—capable of condensing hours of content into just minutes. With support for speech-to-text translation in 21 languages, they’re ideal for multilingual environments. The earbuds deliver up to 19 hours of listening on a single charge, extending to 53 hours with the charging case, and a quick 10-minute charge provides an additional 3 hours of use. Audio quality is top-tier, thanks to a Hi-Res certified 18×11mm Racetrack Speaker Unit and LHDC transmission, complemented by 18 preset sound profiles and an 8-band equalizer for personalized tuning. For gamers, a dedicated Game Mode reduces latency for immersive, responsive gameplay, especially in FPS titles like PUBG. Additionally, OpenNote supports dual connectivity, allowing seamless switching between two devices for uninterrupted audio experiences.
