Abstract

An earphone which includes a sound production component and an ear hook may be provided. The sound production component includes a transducer and a housing accommodating the transducer. A first portion of the ear hook is hung between an auricle and the head of a user, and a second portion extends toward a side of the auricle away from the head and is connected to the sound production component. A difference between a minimum distance from the sound production component to the first portion in a wearing state and a minimum distance from the sound production component to the first portion in a non-wearing state is not smaller than 1 mm, in the wearing state, the housing and the first portion of the ear hook clamp the auricle of the user and provide a clamping force in a range of 0.03N to 1N to the auricle of the user.
