The first one we should talk about is the BTS edition of the popular Samsung Galaxy+ earbuds. They were released as a limited edition product in June of 2020. The wireless BTS earbuds were designed using a purple aesthetics, the official color of the group.

The next two examples came as part of the BT21 collection of merchandise. BT21 is a joint project of the members of BTS with Line Friends Corporation. The partnership started in 2017 and resulted in a creation of several cartoon characters used as stickers in the messaging app Line. The highly popular, used by millions of people application is owned by Naver Corp.
The collaboration introduced hundreds of collectibles throughout the years, among which you could find BTS earbuds, electronic devices, pieces of apparel and other items you can use in your everyday life.
Eight new characters were brought to life, which inspired a large amount of merchandise. Each of them was co-designed by the members themselves: Cooky (by Jungkook), Chimmy (by Jimin), Tata (by V), Mang (by J-Hope), Shooky (by Suga), RJ (by Jin), Koya (by RM), and one additional character Van created by the professional designers from Line Friends Corp.
The first example of the BTS earbuds inspired by the BT21 characters was a collaboration with a company called KH Vatec. They are available in seven different options with the face of the chosen character on the case cover which is made of a material in a specific color related to the selected option. The charging case is the same in all variants, white with the logo on the top, containing the white earbuds inside, featuring the same logo on both of them.
