Sony's Reon Pocket Pro Plus Arrives in the US, a Quiet Neck-Worn Climate Assistant

TL;DR Summary
Sony’s Reon Pocket Pro Plus is arriving in the US as a discreet neck-worn device that cools or heats the upper back from 41 to 104°F via app or onboard controls. It uses a Peltier plate, a fan-assisted cooling system, and a smart mode that auto-adjusts with environmental sensors. Weighing 8.7 oz with up to 15 hours of battery life in cool/smart mode, it costs $260 and aims for quiet, low-profile use; it's pricier than handheld fans like the ChillPill, making it a niche option for those who value discretion over budget or exercise-heavy cooling.
