- The Bose Sport Open Earbuds leave your ear canal completely open so you can hear your surroundings at all times.
- The earphones have protection class IPX4 and support Bluetooth 5.1.
- They're available now for $ 199.95.
The Bose Sport Open Earbuds take a sharp departure from the company's typical noise-canceling offerings. These open-back earbuds sit gently on the comb of your ear, letting outside noise in. Some listeners may not find this intuitive, but it is imperative for outdoor athletes to be aware of your surroundings.
These true wireless earbuds don't use bone conduction technology like we've seen from popular audio company Aftershokz. Instead, the drivers emit sounds straight from their earbuds, and the waves are then directed into your ear canal. Bose promises that audio playback will only be heard by the listener when the volume is loud.

These open earphones are waterproof according to IPX4. Each earhook secures the earbud so that it hugs the back of your ear. Just like the Bose Sport Earbuds and the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, the Sport Open Earbuds use the Bluetooth 5.1 firmware. Each earbud has a single button for playback control and access to the voice assistant. You can also control the headset using the Bose Music app.
The Bose Sport Open Earbuds are available for pre-order in the US and retail for $ 199.95. Bose will begin shipping the headset in mid-January. Currently, black is the only color option.
