The Panasonic Iconics series features two new headphone styles. The Panasonic RP-HXD5C are centered around a minimalistic look. The black with red trim features a chrome finish on the ear-cup while the white headphones give the look of a glass finish on the ear-cup. Each is accentuated with a touch of color to mimic the look of illumination- red for the black headphones and green for the white headphones. Besides a sleek, modern look the RP-HXD5C contains a large 40mm driver unit and 8Hz-26kHz frequency response for superior sound quality. The soft headpad allows for hours of comfortable wear. Additionally, the RP-HXD5C headphones are equipped with a built-in remote and microphone made for iPhone/iPod so users can answer calls and control volume from their smart devices directly from their headphone cord.
Also in the Iconics series are the RP-HXD3W which combine a chrome-like ear-cup design with a matte, silicone surface frame which not only adds a unique aesthetic appeal but also provides soft comfort on a user's head and ear and prevents slippage. With a frequency response of 10Hz-25kHz and 30mm driver unit the headphones are ideal for high-quality sound reproduction. The RP-HXD3W headphones are equipped with a microphone and talk on/off switch and includes an extra adaptor for Nokia and other selected phone models.

The headphones compact pen-type design clips to clothing and houses a noise cancelling on-off toggle, volume control and room for one AAA alkaline battery which provides up to 40 hours of operation time. A cord holder attachment provides tangle-free cord storage and the Panasonic RP-HC56 comes with an Air Plug and convenient carrying pouch.
