Bose's AirPods killer, the SoundSport Free
headphones are finally available for purchase in the United States. The
wireless earbuds can be had for US$ 250, but they will ship in 2 to 3 weeks. If
you haven't yet placed your pre-order and decided to wait until they hit the
shelves, then you'll have to wait some more since Bose seems to have trouble
fulfilling all orders.
The SoundSport Free wireless headphones come in two
color variations: Black and Midnight Blue. Both cost the same (US$ 250), but the
blue ones haven't yet made it to the store yet. According to Bose, the Midnight
Blue earbuds will start to ship in mid-November, but you can already place your
pre-order if you don't mind waiting until next month.
On top of that, Bose offers free expedited shipping
if you order today. It's unclear whether or not this is a one-day promotional
offer, but that's what the company has written on the website. The Bose
SoundSport Free wireless headphones come with a portable charging case in the
retail box, a USB cable, as well as 3 sizes of StayHear+ Sport tips. The
headphones' battery should provide users with up to 5 hours of full use. Also,
charging time is supposed to be about 2 hours if you're wondering.
