Sony, the giant behind the Xperia series, showcased a set of conceptualized wearable technology like the "Xperia Ear" and "Xperia Eye" During the "Mobile World Congress" last February.

 According to Techcrunch, the Xperia Ear price and release date have been unveiled by Sony. The wearable device will be released through Amazon on December 13 at $200. It would later be available at retailers like B&H and Fry's.

 Sony designed the Xperia Ear as a wearable personal assistant, acting like Amazon's "Echo" or Google's "Google home." But instead of being built in a phone or Wi-Fi speaker, the device is fashioned like that of a Bluetooth earpiece.

Xperia Ear will be powered by the Sony Agent Technology, a personal assistant that Sony designed themselves. The user will receive text notification or driving assistance through the Xperia Ear.

Moreover, the Xperia Ear will also have various sensors built in it. This way, users can use head movements like nodding to acknowledge a command.
