Panasonic has announced a new set of side-mount headphones for fashion-conscious sporty types. The RP-HS200E is water resistant to protect it from rain or sweat and offers a broad sound frequency response of 10Hz-22kHz.

Panasonic says the in-ear speaker does not compromise sound quality as the 12.4mm side-mount amplifier produces powerful sound. The soft plastic Elastomer Hanger wraps around the ear and works as an absorber to minimise cord touch noise while running and ensures that the headphones stay in the ear even during fast-paced exercise.

The HS200E comes in a range of five colours including orange, blue, champagne, black or white and is available now for £26.
