LG Electronics launched its groundbreaking “xboom by will.i.am” audio lineup in the United States on April 14, marking a significant fusion of cutting-edge audio technology and artificial intelligence. The launch event, held at LG’s U.S. headquarters, showcased the collaboration between the tech giant and the renowned artist will.i.am, introducing a new era of AI-enhanced audio experiences.

The innovative product lineup introduces four distinct offerings, each designed to cater to different listening preferences and environments. The flagship xboom Stage 301, priced at $299, leads the collection, followed by the xboom Bounce at $199, the xboom Grab at $149, and the portable xboom Buds at $109. Each device incorporates advanced AI capabilities that set them apart in the competitive audio market.

These smart Bluetooth speakers feature sophisticated AI technology integration, including AI Sound for optimising audio content analysis, AI Lighting for creating synchronised light shows, and AI Calibration for delivering pristine sound quality across various acoustic environments. These features demonstrate LG’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of conventional audio technology.

A standout feature of the xboom lineup is its future integration with will.i.am’s RAiDiO.FYI platform, scheduled for launch in 2025. This AI-powered platform aims to revolutionize the listening experience by transforming traditional passive audio consumption into an interactive, personalized journey with curated content delivery.

The collaboration, initially announced in December 2024, positions will.i.am as the “Experiential Architect” for LG xboom.
