Tile is parenting with Skullcandy to make wireless earbuds less prone to being permanently misplaced. If you know Tile, you know it's all about keeping track of your small items, and if you know how easy to lose wireless earbuds are, it's a match made in heaven.
"Anyone who has owned a pair of wireless headphones knows just how easy it is to lose them," said CJ Prober, CEO of Tile. "Skullcandy understands this disruption and has partnered with Tile to eliminate that worry for customers by making their new suite of true wireless products completely findable."
Skullcandy's new earbuds are the Push Ultra, Indy Evo, Indy Fuel, and Sesh Evo, all of which are equipped with Tile's tagging technology. Both companies have worked to treat each individual earbud as a single item rather than treating both earbuds as a single unit, making it easier to find them if separated.
