It has been quite a while since Bose introduced Open Ear headphones. The last instance was when the company unveiled its Sports Open Earbuds in January 2021, which were subsequently discontinued in October 2022. Now, Bose is preparing to reinvigorate its Open Ear headphones range with the all-new Open Ear Clips TWS, anticipated to premiere during CES 2024 at Las Vegas. Today, we’ve gathered marketing materials of the forthcoming TWS from our reliable sources, unveiling the device’s design.
Update: Today, Bose unveiled a partnership with the fashion and lifestyle brand Kith to introduce its newest wearable device, the Ultra Open Earbuds.
Bose’s New Open Ear Clips Design Renders Showcase Stunning White and Silver Color Palette
As depicted in the images, the forthcoming Open Ear Clips from Bose will showcase a meticulously crafted G-shaped design, ensuring a snug fit on the ear without obstructing the ear canal. This design feature allows users to remain aware of their surroundings.
The TWS will bear the Bose branding and R and L markings on the inner side of the device. Its outer portion will boast a glossy silver finish, adding a touch of sophistication. Additionally, the speakers will be positioned at the upper side of the device.
The upcoming Bose Open Ear Clips appear to share a somewhat similar architecture as Huawei’s Freeclips clip-on headphones. But so far, the official name of Bose’s impending Open Ear headphones remains undisclosed.
Beyond these details, information regarding Bose’s upcoming offering is limited. However, we anticipate gaining more clarity on the device’s specifications if it is unveiled at the forthcoming CES 2024.
Interestingly, Bose has acquired a strategic stake in the homegrown wearables brand Noise. According to Noise co-founder Amit Khatri’s statement to ET, Bose and Noise are set to collaborate on audio innovations with this investment in place. He added that this partnership will fortify the company’s research and design efforts and capitalise on Bose’s distribution networks to expand into new geographical markets.
