We are now communicating more often, listening to songs with a different genre, watching videos on social media for a long time, and more through our smartphones than in the past, making earbuds more necessary in this day's age.

In the ‘new normal,’ people are spending most their time at home. One of the outcomes of the current situation is that interest in interior decorating has never been higher, especially when it comes to redesigning the living room – the centre of daily life in most households.
