Photo Credit: iFixit Over-ear wireless headphones called the Fairbuds XL are about to be released by Fairphone. The Fairbuds XL's retail price in Europe has also leaked, in addition to the product's design. The addition of a set of over-ear headphones to Fairphone's product lineup seems to be imminent. The Fairphone 4-inspired color scheme of the Fairbuds XL is expected to adhere to the company's philosophy of using recycled materials whenever possible. The Fairbuds XL may, in theory, help the wireless audio industry reduce its amount of electronic waste.

According to information that has emerged, the Fairbuds will retail for €249 and come in black or green color schemes. The ear cups appear to be removable, but this alone wouldn't make the Fairbuds XL more repairable than its rivals.

WinFuture also states that support for active noise cancellation is "likely." However, it is still unclear what the two physical buttons on the gadget do or if there are gesture-based volume and media controls. The existence of a Vimeo video and listings on numerous online shops suggest that Fairphone will soon make an announcement, albeit a release date is not yet known.
