Still hunting for that Christmas present with a little extra sparkle? This year, Motorola is offering something a bit different for the gadget lover on your list. The Moto Buds Loop aren’t just another pair of earbuds, they’re wearable tech that doubles as jewellery, making them a statement gift that’s bound to raise eyebrows when the wrapping paper comes off.
The Moto Buds Loop aren’t just another pair of earbuds, they’re wearable tech that doubles as jewellery, making them a statement gift that’s bound to raise eyebrows when the wrapping paper comes off.
The design is what instantly sets these apart. Rather than the usual stem-and-tip formula, the Moto Buds Loop hug the ear in a sleek cuff shape. Available in subtle Trekking Green or a dazzling French Oak edition adorned with Swarovski crystals, they bring a fashion-forward flair rarely seen in wireless earbuds. They’re the sort of present that looks just as good on a night out as it does during a morning commute , which is exactly what makes them feel special enough for gifting.
Of course, good looks only go so far, and the Moto Buds Loop deliver respectable performance too. They’re tuned in partnership with Bose, offering clear mids and detailed highs, with support for spatial audio for a more immersive feel. Because they’re open-ear, they let you stay aware of your surroundings, a bonus for joggers or city-dwellers. Still, they’re perfect for everyday listening where safety and comfort matter as much as fidelity.
Practicality isn’t forgotten, either. With up to 8 hours of battery life in the buds and 37 more in the case, these can easily keep pace with a busy lifestyle. A quick 10-minute charge adds another three hours of playtime, ideal for those last-minute dashes out the door during the festive season. Smart features like dual microphones with CrystalTalk AI keep calls crisp, and Motorola’s Smart Connect makes it easy to switch between devices.
Naturally, luxury comes with a price tag. The crystal-studded edition is nearly twice the cost of the plain model, which means much of what you’re paying for is style rather than extra substance. That said, as a Christmas gift, the sparkle might be precisely what seals the deal. The Moto Buds Loop are the kind of present that feels indulgent and thoughtful, something you wouldn’t necessarily buy for yourself, but would love to receive.
If your loved one is fashion-conscious, already a Motorola phone user, or simply enjoys gadgets that make a statement, the Moto Buds Loop will feel like a dazzling surprise under the tree. They’re fun, they’re functional, and they show you’ve gone beyond the ordinary pair of earbuds. Just be prepared: once they unwrap them, the Swarovski sparkle might outshine everything else by the firelight.
