Oraimo has brought its SpaceBuds 2 (OTW-631) to Kenya, and the earbuds carry credentials that go well beyond the spec sheet.
The global smart accessories brand worked with Jesse Ray, the Grammy Award-winning audio engineer behind Burna Boy’s sound, to tune the acoustics, a decision that sets these earbuds apart from the crowded TWS market before you even put them in your ears.
Grammy-Level Sound, Built for Daily Life
The SpaceBuds 2 builds on the success of oraimo’s Space series, adding immersive spatial audio that gives music, gaming, and film a three-dimensional quality that standard earbuds rarely achieve. Jesse Ray’s involvement was not ceremonial. His acoustic tuning shaped the clarity, tonal balance, and spatial detail across the frequency range, closing the gap between a professional studio monitor and what most people actually listen through. The result earned the SpaceBuds 2 a moment at Milan Fashion Week, where the design drew attention alongside some of the most scrutinised accessories in the world.
The Features That Matter
52dB Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation cuts out surrounding sound with enough force to make a matatu ride feel like a quiet room. That is a meaningful number for anyone who commutes in Nairobi.
45 hours of total playtime means the earbuds outlast most working weeks without reaching for a cable. The charging case carries the bulk of that capacity, so the interruptions most wireless earbuds demand simply do not come up as often.
AI Clear Calling cleans up your voice in noisy environments so the person on the other end hears you clearly, whether you are standing on a busy street or sitting at a café during lunch hour.
AI Translation handles real-time multilingual conversations, switching between Swahili, English, and other languages without manual input. In a city where a single workday can move through multiple languages across meetings, calls, and negotiations, that feature solves a real problem rather than a hypothetical one.
The Lunar Eclipse design adds a customisable lighting effect that makes the case and buds feel deliberate, not generic.
Built for Nairobi, Not Just a Press Release
The features read differently once you place them in context. Noise cancellation on a boda ride through Westlands traffic. AI translation mid-call with a supplier who switches between Swahili and English. Clear call quality while walking through a noisy market. The SpaceBuds 2 addresses the specific texture of urban Kenyan life rather than describing a version of it from the outside.
Young professionals and Gen Z users form the core audience, but the use cases stretch across anyone who spends significant time commuting, working in open environments, or managing communication across languages. The soft launch period already generated strong interest among Kenyan tech enthusiasts tracking both audio performance and AI capability.
What oraimo’s CEO Said
“With the oraimo SpaceBuds 2, we are introducing more than just a new pair of earbuds,” said Kevin Yuan, CEO of oraimo Audio. “We are delivering a smarter, more immersive audio experience, vetted by Grammy-winning excellence, designed for today’s fast-paced consumer.”
Where to Buy
The SpaceBuds 2 are available now across oraimo’s physical stores, Hotpoint, Miniso, Carrefour, China Square, Panda Mart, and China Village locations nationwide. They are also available online at ke.oraimo.com.
For anyone who has settled for earbuds that do just enough, the SpaceBuds 2 makes a case for expecting more — from the sound, from the technology, and from a device you wear every day.
