As a military wife and a new mom to a 7-month-old, I am all about multi-tasking, and staying productive. I am always on the hunt for innovations and products that can help me achieve just that. One of the best perks being a Best Buy Ambassador is getting info and dibs on the latest in tech. Honestly, I’m like a kid who just got presented with a box of toys whenever I am around gadgets and devices. The best way to put it, it’s toys for the grown-ups!
Ever heard of wireless and wearable speaker? It’s a thing now, thanks to advanced technology! Bose introduced its first wearable speaker, and it’s totally worth checking out! Best believe, it has already helped me stay productive in so many ways.
The SoundWear Companion Speaker is a wearable tech with a familiar twist. How does this thing work? You wear this device around your neck and shoulders, simply pair your device to its Bluetooth, follow the prompts to operate it with your device, and you are done.
What do I love with Bose SoundWear Companion?
Cutting-Edge Sound » It delivers deep bass sound that is unexpected for a wearable speaker. You get to be surrounded by music while staying connected and in tune with your surrounding. The embedded two 11-inch waveguides in the flexible neckband is a technology like no other. Picture enjoying your favorite R&B jam, Dance hits, Podcast, Audiobook, or even taking calls without having to pause LIFE. Personally, I appreciate this device the most while multi-tasking around the house.
Wearable » As a mom, wearing wired headsets is a hassle. My son tends to pull and tug anything that dangles around us. Yes, I could use wireless headsets, but I have to make sure I am always keeping a close watch and an open ear for my little one. Not to forget that I am not a fan of getting my ears sweaty with over the ear headsets or getting my ears pressed with on-ear headphones. Plus the fact that With Bose SoundWear Companion, I can easily enjoy my music anywhere I go, whatever I do.
Ear-free Design » Having a baby means staying alert at all times. As I have mentioned, with the Bose SoundWear Companion, I can literally stay aware of my surroundings even while listening to my music or favorite form of entertainment.
Durability » If you are worried if this device would break easily, you don’t have to. It is meticulously engineered to be long-lasting aside from the fact that Bose itself established its brand as reputable for durability and quality. Bose Soundwear Companion is also weather resistant so you can wear it all day long outdoors if you want to.
Hands free. Ears free.
Comfortability » Its neckband is covered with soft-touch silicone. It is flexible and lightweight so you’d hardly feel like you’re carrying this speaker on your shoulders. It rests comfortably for a hands-free, ears-free entertainment.
Design » If you want to be more stylish like me, you can order fabric covers that you can buy separately. It has three colors that you can choose from – blue, purple, and gray.
Long Battery Life » Unlike other Bluetooth enabled speakers and headsets, Bose SoundWear Companion can last up to 12 hours straight when fully charged. Plus it is easy recharged via Micro-B USB port.

Mellissa
June 12, 2018This is pretty neat!! I never thought that we’d be in a place to wear speakers around our neck. There was a day when people carried around huge boom boxes on their shoulders. They would get a kick out of this.
