Simple Color Simple Style

Taiwanese hipster must be familiar with "±0," a home appliance and household goods brand established in 2003 by Japanese toy manufacturer Takara Tomy through investment, with a series of home appliances designed by renowned designer Naoto Fukasawa and produced by Diamond Inc. Although the protagonist XAM-M010 was not designed by Fukasawa, it still inherits the "Neutral" product core.

The concept of using simple rectangles like building blocks is seamlessly integrated into the body, remote control, and square-shaped charging dock, creating a cute and lovable presence. Boldly abandoning the conventional use of metal materials that symbolize quality and texture, the all-plastic body has an extremely simple style with large R angles to create a familiar feel, and is contrasted and decorated with a high-gloss coating, giving a fresh sense of familiarity overall.

From Sharp OEM, the XAM-M010 is possibly modeled after the MD-ST500, and uses the +/- power audio circuit commonly used in audio equipment for sound quality, replacing capacitors that affect sound quality. However, it is regrettable that it does not use a digital amplifier and has only a weak 3-stage X-Bass for sound effects. The maximum battery life of 155 hours (LP4) meets the specifications of its entry-level positioning.

Two color options are available, Blue and Red. The charging dock is shared in an acceptable white color, although not entirely satisfactory. However, the biggest design flaw is that the Red control cable is assembled using Blue, which can be considered a major design flaw.

The extremely minimalist body has no operation buttons and can only be operated using the square-shaped backlit remote control.

Equipped with ear-hook headphones with a prominent ±0 on the concave surface, it is a highly eye-catching presence for outdoor use.
