Sony recently launched a new body air conditioner with advanced technology, which can be worn behind a shirt. As surprising as it may sound, the company has actually come up with such a great yet effective innovation. The new smart wearable thermo device kit is called Sony Reon Pocket 5. It comes with multiple cooling and warming levels.
Sony Reon Pocket 5 specifications and features
The Sony Rion Pocket 5 Wearable Air Conditioner offers a total of five calling levels and four warming levels. For best performance the device can be used in conjunction with the Reon Pocket Tag. This small wearable tag acts as a remote sensor, which sends signals to the neck unit to adjust the temperature by detecting the user's surroundings. However, apart from tags, the Rion Pocket 5 is also capable of working independently. It also targets the user's body temperature, so the tag can perform better to provide personalized comfort.
The new Sony Reon Pocket 5 device can also be controlled via the Reon Pocket app, which is compatible with both iOS and Android devices. From this app, users can control five cooling and four warming levels according to their needs through Bluetooth. This new wearable air conditioner is claimed to be able to provide a long battery life of 17 hours on a single charge.
By the way, this device from Sony cannot be called completely new. Because the Rion Pocket series first debuted in Japan in 2019. Later editions of this series became very popular in the Hong Kong market. Now the company is all set to launch the Reon Pocket 5 globally.
