Samsung is relaunching its Gear IconX wireless headphones in a revised version. Do they have enough to convert more and more athletes, in addition to storm the Apple AirPods? We tested them for a week: here is our verdict.

Design
The market has changed since the release of the first IconX model. Specifically, Apple went through and released AirPods design certainly questionable, but they have titillated the interest of the general public.
Better to have a successful design, what these IconX 2018 can boast to have. The headphones themselves have not changed much, even though they are slightly smaller thanks to the better built-in heart sensor. They also give up their golden ring to go unnoticed, which is appreciated.

Especially the case of IconX has changed this year. Less slender and a little thicker, it is closer to the appearance of a jewel box with a clasp button. In support, the lid opens automatically to reveal the two earphones.
Like the previous model, the box has its own battery that charges the headphones. The size of it has increased somewhat (340 mAh against 315), but its principle remains the same: colored LEDs indicate the load of each of the headphones, with the classic sequence of colors green, orange and red.
