Sony Electronics Inc. has launched the REON POCKET PRO Plus, a wearable thermo device, designed to deliver enhanced personal cooling and heating with stability and comfort.
The REON POCKET PRO Plus combines thermal control and real-time sensing. The result is a consistent and discreet cooling or heating experience that adapts in real time, whether commuting, travelling, or spending extended time outdoors.
In SMART mode, the wearer can set a temperature range in the mobile app, and the device automatically adjusts the temperature of the cooling plate based on the wearer’s preference.
To support this, the device integrates multiple sensor types that work in combination to continuously monitor skin temperature in real time. These sensors work with the algorithm to adjust cooling and heating output based on changes in the wearer’s condition and surroundings.
A key feature of the REON POCKET PRO Plus is the adjustable neckband, engineered with Sony’s new Adaptive Hold Design to improve fit and performance. This allows the device to maintain stable and consistent contact with the body, which is critical for effective thermal transfer.
The neckband fit also reduces micro-movements during walking or light activity, ensuring that cooling and heating performance remains reliable throughout daily use. At the same time, the design maintains flexibility and comfort for extended wear, balancing stability with ergonomics.
The REON POCKET PRO Plus is fan-less and designed to operate at quiet noise levels so that it can be used discreetly in many settings. The device has a battery life of up to 15 hours of battery life at the SMART COOL mode setting.
To better accommodate a wide range of clothing styles and use scenarios, the airflow exhaust system has been designed with adjustable components that allow users to extend the vent length and modify its angle.
This flexibility enables efficient heat dissipation regardless of collar height, fabric type, or layering, helping maintain peak cooling performance without requiring changes to how the device is worn.
The device is intended as a practical, all-day solution rather than a situational accessory.
Complementing the main unit, the Wearable Sensing Device for REON POCKET is a compact wearable sensor tag designed to provide precise measurements of ambient temperature and humidity.
The Wearable Sensing Device is palm-sized. The form factor includes a strap hole and carabiner, offering attachment options such as bags, belt loops, or accessories.
By capturing environmental data in real time, the Wearable Sensing Device provides additional context for thermal adjustments, allowing users to better understand and respond to changing conditions throughout the day.
Since its introduction in Japan in 2019, the REON POCKET series has evolved to support a wide range of real-world use cases, from commuting and travel to outdoor work and leisure. With its first introduction in the US market, REON POCKET PRO Plus continues this evolution by integrating advanced sensing, thermal efficiency, and a thoughtful ergonomic design into a refined and capable system.
The REON POCKET PRO Plus will be available to purchase in the US summer 2026 exclusively from Sony’s online store at https://electronics.sony.com/t/reon.
