Cleer Arc 3 earbuds floating against a white background.

Cleer Audio's engineers have been busy: the firm has revealed not one, not two but six new Arc 3 open-ear wireless headphones. They come with touchless, head-tilt controls; waterproof ear clip designs; hi-res and Dolby Atmos audio; and in some of the more premium models, AI-powered active noise cancellation, too.

All of the models in the range are built around 16.2mm drivers and driven by the Qualcomm QCC5181 chipset. That supports aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless, Dolby Atmos, Hi-Res Audio, LDAC and Snapdragon Sound over multi-point Bluetooth 5.4. The aptX adaptive delivers up to 24-bit 96 kHz streaming and the LDAC offers up to 16-bit, 44.1kHz lossless streaming.
