Bose introduces two new open-ear, wraparound earbuds: the Bose Sport Open for $199 and the Bose Ultra Open (second generation) for $299. The models are designed to sit around the ear rather than inside the ear canal, continuing Bose’s push in the “open ear” category.
All outlets describe the announcement as an expansion of Bose’s clip-on lineup. Rolling Stone and other coverage highlight enhancements including improved call quality and automatically adjusting volume on the second-gen Ultra Open and the new Sport Open. Android Authority and ZDNet frame the move as offering more choices for people who do not want an in-ear fit.
While the sources broadly align on the product lineup, pricing, and the general design goal, they emphasize slightly different aspects: Bloomberg focuses on the two-model lineup and price points; Rolling Stone spotlights feature improvements such as call quality and adaptive volume; Android Authority emphasizes the clip-on, non-in-ear nature for comfort; ZDNet also references the Ultra Open (second gen) and Sport Open as a lineup refresh for “aware” listening.
