9.3g(0.3 oz)1Maker product pageankerjapan.com/products/a3876Read 15 October 2026Table row reads about 9.3 g / about 76.4 g without labels. The 76.4 g value is the earbuds plus case. Read 9.3 g as one earbud because two earbuds and a 57.8 g case would total 76.4 g in retailer listings. The maker row is unlabelled, so this reading is an inference.
