LG’S UPGRADED PURICARE WEARABLE AIR PURIFIER COMING TO THE UAE

LG Electronics (LG) is introducing the new and improved LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier to residents of the UAE. Upgraded from the innovative, wearable device LG first launched last year, the latest model offers an enhanced all-around performance along with a convenient voice amplification feature and a more comfortable, lightweight design.

The new iteration of the LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier is equipped with a fully automatic fan airflow control system that increases breathing comfort.¹ It also incorporates two H13 HEPA filters, the same as those found in premium air purifiers for the home, to ensure the air the user breathes is as clean as healthy as possible.²

Driven by an ultra-small and lightweight motor, the device’s DUAL fans combine with LG’s airflow control technology – which detects the user’s breathing pattern and adjusts airflow accordingly – to help the wearer breathe easier and more naturally.¹ This advanced system also prevents a common problem for those wearing glasses and mask at the same time, keeping their lenses from fogging up when exhaling.

Sporting a fresh, new design, the upgraded PuriCare Wearable provides a subtle yet stylish look and comes in two chic colors: creamy white and ocean black. Its seamless, ergonomic design minimizes air leakage around the nose and chin, sealing gently but firmly to the wearer’s face. Weighing in at only 94 grams,³ the latest model is comfortable to wear for longer periods of time and is perfect for everyday use.

To make it easier to communicate with others while wearing the PuriCare Wearable, LG has introduced its VoiceON technology. Employing a microphone and a speaker built into the device itself, VoiceON automatically recognizes when the user is talking, projecting their voice with clarity so that they can be heard and understood without issue.

What’s more, the latest PuriCare Wearable brings greater on-the-go convenience courtesy of a larger, 1,000 mAh battery that offers up to 8 hours of operation on a single charge.⁵

Featuring LG’s latest wearable technologies, the upgraded LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier can be worn with confidence, enabling users to breathe clean, healthy air wherever they go,” said Mr. Hongju Jeon, President at LG Electronics Gulf. “Our latest wearable device also delivers maximum convenience, and a fashionable design that can help users express their own unique style. LG will continue to bring innovations to market that contribute to a healthier, better life.”
