Shenzhen AI note-taking hardware company Plaud announced last week that it had launched the Plaud One earbuds. The device focuses on an always-available AI experience, features a built-in 4G LTE eSIM, is priced at $249.99 (approximately 1,684 yuan at the current exchange rate), and is limited to 2000 units.
The Plaud One has a recording range of up to 5m and can record every conversation. It supports seamless agent invocation, provides AI with smooth and coherent contextual scenarios, and prepares follow-up tasks without the user even noticing.
