The Cleer Arc 4 Plus changes the hook shape and case size from the Arc 3. I focus on the details I notice while running, wearing sunglasses and taking calls.
The brand supplied the Arc 4 Plus. I compare it directly with my Arc 3 after running and describe a more comfortable physical design and a subjective improvement in sound and call noise handling.
