Bose launches SoundSport Free Wireless earbuds, SoundLink Micro speaker in India


US-based audio equipment maker Bose on Tuesday launched wireless headphone “SoundSport Free” that delivers up to five hours of music, for Rs 18,990. The “SoundSport Free” will be available in black, midnight blue and bright orange colours at select Bose online and retail stores and Amazon from February 7.

The earbuds are engineered to strike a new balance between size, performance and stability in a wireless design.

“‘SoundSport Free’ is the closest thing to what people have always wanted in a sport headphone,” Brian Maguire, Director, Bose on-the-go products, said in a statement.

“They are a technology-packed solution that’s stripped down to just two rugged earbuds that feel great, stay connected, stay in, and sound amazing,” Maguire added.

The rugged and IPX4 rated water and sweat resistance device houses a new antennae system to maintain a strong connection between the two earplugs and the phone or tablet they are paired to.

The Proprietary StayHear+ Sport tips create a secure, firm fit that is comfortable even if you play music for longer hours. Its charging case magnetically holds each earbud in place, doubles as storage and provides two additional full charges for up to 10 more hours of battery life. When not stowed away, a new “Find My Buds” feature on the Bose Connect App displays the last time and place they were used to locate them quickly.
