If the existing styles of wireless earbuds have not worked for you, Bose is ready to explore a new style. These wireless Sport Open Earbuds don't go through or over your canal. They are placed above your ear canal which allows you to hear the audio and still be able to hear the sounds around you.
The design appears a bit unnatural compared to other headphones however Bose claims they'll stay securely positioned in any weather conditions, and provide clear, loud audio that you can enjoy without broadcasting it to the rest of the world. I'll need to read some reviews from one of our audio experts before I believe fully in what it's offering, but the possibility of a headset that has a better fitting is worth a look.
