Summer is here and millions of younglings are making their way to the beach as N. America recovers from the COVID pandemic. Teens and young adults love their TikTok and mobile gaming while hanging out or contemplating their dystopian future and the folks at Urbanista have just unveiled the brand new Urbanista Seoul and Lisbon Earphones to make that journey far more enjoyable.
Urbanista, the Swedish lifestyle audio brand, have announced the launch of two new products to its true wireless line up; the Urbanista Seoul, mobile gaming ready earphones and Urbanista Lisbon, a colorful and compact earbud perfect for travel.
The Swedish-manufacturer have done a remarkable job building out the brand and getting their products into 90 countries in 2021 with over 30,000 dealers.
Urbanista Seoul
Perfected for mobile gaming and designed for life in motion. The sleek and compact Seoul earphones offer low latency with super audio quality making them the perfect partner for mobile gaming, listening to music or watching your favorite videos. Urbanista Seoul combines the brands trademark of minimal Scandinavian design; sleek and compact with four stylish color choices.
With Seoul, you can instantly switch between gaming and music modes with just the tap of an earphone to choose the best possible audio for an immersive mobile gaming and music listening experience.
The Seoul looks like a rather affordable alternative to some of the pricier ANC TRW earphones that we’ve had a chance to review this year.

Where to buy: Pre-order now for $89.90 at urbanista.com. Ships in early August 2021.
Urbanista Lisbon
Priced at $49.90, Lisbon combines functionality with personality in a sleek, compact and functional package. With a portable charging case and earbuds weighing less than 1 ounce each, Urbanista Lisbon is the perfect audio companion to carry with you wherever you go. The small earbuds fit comfortably and securely for a barely-there listening experience and offer an impressive nine hours playtime. Although small, Lisbon is designed to pack a punch, don’t let their size fool you.
Urbanista Lisbon is available in a choice of five stylish colors inspired by the carefree feeling of endless summer days: Coral Peach (pastel red), Vanilla Cream (beige), Blush Pink (pink), Mint Green (green) and Midnight Black (black).
The Lisbon looks like a great alternative to all of the cheap “Chi-fi” Apple AirPod knock-offs that are flooding the market which barely last a week. Urbanista builds these to a much higher standard and we’re willing to bet they sound dramatically better as well.
