The Bose SoundWear Companion Speaker is an Alternative to Headphones
Michael Hemsworth — September 22, 2017 — Tech
Listening to music usually means either tossing on a pair of headphones or playing it through your chosen speaker, but the Bose SoundWear Companion Speaker comes as a newly designed device that is a mix between the two. Designed to be worn around the neck, the speaker will provide personalized sound thanks to the waveguide technology from the brand that will let you listen without disturbing those around you. This would come in hand for those in open-concept offices who want to listen to music without completely blocking out the sounds and noise around them to ensure they're aware of what's going on.
The Bose SoundWear Companion Speaker can be paired with a series of custom designed covers for personalization, while a built-in microphone enables you to take calls and communicate with voice assistants like Siri.
