Sony announced the launch of REON POCKET PRO wearable thermo-device kit, the latest premium addition to the REON POCKET series of products that can be worn around the neck to cool or warm the part of the body that the device is in contact with.

For the first time in the REON POCKET series, REON POCKET PRO features two independent thermo-modules (DUAL thermo-modules). In addition, it features a newly developed heat-dissipating fan offering approximately twice the airflow compared to the previous model, with a newly designed heat-dissipation mechanism. REON POCKET PRO offers several further enhancements from the previous model with approximately twice the cooling area, up to twice the heat-absorbing performance, and up to twice the operating time5, Sony said in a press release.

REON POCKET PRO is equipped with two independent thermo-modules (DUAL thermo-modules), approximately doubling the cooling/warming area compared to conventional models.

The DUAL thermo-module is a new mechanism in which each thermo-module is driven alternately with varying intensity to sustain cooling. In addition, a newly developed heat-dissipating fan with twice the airflow and a newly designed heat-dissipation mechanism deliver improved heat absorption, with improved cooling performance of up to approximately twice that of the previous model.

As a further enhancement, the upgraded battery delivers approximately 34 hours at COOL Level 1 and up to double the operating time of the previous model.

The accuracy of AUTO START/STOP, which automatically starts or stops the cooling and warming by sensing the condition of the unit and the user's mounting/removal motion, has been improved.

In addition, sensors on the main unit and a unique algorithm have evolved the operating time when using the SMART COOL mode. The enhanced SMART COOL mode intelligently adapts to your environment by analyzing user behavior, temperature, and humidity to deliver powerful, efficient cooling for up to 15 hours.

The new internal heat-dissipating structure has achieved a compact size that remains inconspicuous, even in business environments. The chassis features a light gray color that blends in seamlessly and remains inconspicuous.

The operating noise has been reduced by approximately 50% compared to conventional models, delivering significantly quieter performance. In addition, control buttons located on the sides support basic operations, such as switching between COOL and WARM modes and selecting different levels, even when a smartphone is not available.

The design of the main unit has been improved, with the cooling/warming area now approximately twice larger than before. This area is tilted at the bottom of the main unit to better fit the body shape.

The neckband’s flexibility has been improved by increasing the diameter of the mechanical flexible tube surrounding the wire frame at the center of the band. Additionally, a new silicone extension has been added at the tip of the band for extra comfort.

Pricing and Availability

REON POCKET PRO will be available to pre-order in United Kingdom, Germany, Austria, France and Spain. It will be available in Italy and Switzerland from June onwards.

REON POCKET PRO is available in the following kit:

RNPK-P1T: REON POCKET PRO main unit, neckband, and REON POCKET TAG, with an approximate price of £199 in the UK and €229 in selected European markets.
