Product Description

The new Bose SoundWear Companion speaker features an around the neck design with Bluetooth connectivity so you can listen to your music without shutting out everything else. These speakers are sweat and weather resistant, have built-in controls and up to 12 hours of battery life.

Hands free. Ears free.
Sure, you want music with you at all times. But you don’t always want to slap on headphones and shut out everything else around you. You don’t have to. The new SoundWear Companion speaker was designed for you. This wearable speaker offers the best of both worlds—convenience and connection—in a way that allows you to be present with your music as well as your surroundings. It rests comfortably on your shoulders, with sound that is full and clear to you—yet minimizes the sound for others. And with legendary waveguide technology at its core, that performance is easy to trust.
Wearable Tech - With a Familiar Twist
With some wearables, it’s fashion before function. Not in this case. Every part of this speaker is meticulously engineered for better sound. But even a groundbreaking product can benefit from a proven technology—like our waveguide technology. So we used two 11-inch waveguides to pump out what other wearable speakers don’t—deep, rich sound.
Surrounded in Sound. Aware of Your Surroundings.
Put them on. Walk around. Take a call or ask Siri a question. This speaker gives you freedom from your devices and keeps you closer to your surroundings at the same time.
A Long History of Innovation, Continued...
It’s interesting, when you look back on it. Stereo speakers that reproduced more sound from the back of the speaker than the front. Compact, single-speaker stereo systems that replaced stacks of equipment. Noise cancelling headphones that changed just about everything. These are just a few of the breakthroughs we’ve introduced in our long history of innovation. Until you tried one of these, you likely couldn’t know how much of a difference it would make. And that’s why we push—to make products that make your life better in ways you can’t imagine.

The SoundWear Companion speaker is just the latest example. Try it—then try to imagine a day without it.
Explore the Features
  • 3 Button Control Volume up. Volume down. Play/Pause. Take a call. Talk to Siri.
  • Waveguide Technology Drivers push air through two flexible 11-inch waveguides in the neckband to ports on opposite ends. For deep sound all around you.
  • Upward-Facing Speakers Pointed precisely toward your ears, maximizing what you hear while minimizing it for others.
  • Advanced Microphone You hear them and they hear you - clearly.
  • BATTERY LIFE

    Plays up to 12 hours. A quick 15-minute charge gives you up to 3 hours.
  • VIBRATIONS FOR INCOMING CALLS

    Haptic alerts are a discreet way to notify you of incoming calls.
  • SWEAT AND WEATHER RESISTANT

    Don’t worry about a little rain or a lot of sun. This wearable can take it.
  • BLUETOOTH CONNECTIVITY

    Wireless Bluetooth pairing made easier with voice prompts.
Twist tested. Form fitted.
We designed the technology that delivers so much bass to bend with the neckband. And used special materials like a bend-and-stay steel wire encased in medical-grade silicone that has just the right amount of low-spring torsion to stay form-fitted to your shoulders. You’ll find it’s so comfortable all day long, you may forget you’re wearing it.
Swappable. Stretchable. Durable.
The speaker isn’t the only thing we obsessed over. Our custom designed covers are acoustically transparent, so nothing gets in the way of the sound. Static free so your hair and clothing don’t cling to it. And four-way stretchable so it fits the speaker snugly. Your speaker includes a Black cover. Other optional colors available are Heather Gray, Midnight Blue and Dark Plum.
Bose Connect App
Control your SoundWear speaker’s Bluetooth connections and manage bass adjustments easily through the Bose Connect app. The app also provides product tips and lets you personalize your settings, so you can make them all yours.

Another Fantastic Bose Product

What's not to love! I love music. Music playing all the time. Music over tv. I have many different Bose earphones ands speakers. Even my auto has Bose. I love them all. And this is no different.

I've been using the Companion for a week, trying to find a "good" use case and convince myself it's something I NEED in my life, but unfortunately it's just not pushed any of my buttons yet.

I wanted to try this product for WFH because could not keep the Bose Quite 30 earbuds in ear all day. I would still use my Quite 30 for Travel on plane. I got the product couple of days back and is working great. Love it so far. Only negative is the setup. you need to download the Bose updater before you can charge the product and pair it with your device.

For anyone that can discern the difference between stereo sound and mono, you will be disappointed with these. 2nd time to review, Bose wouldn't post my first review. Why? If you try the product you'll know why...it was accurate...

This has been one of the best audio purchases I've ever made and I'll explain why after get past the techy stuff. The unit itself is comfortable, easy to wear, easy to connect and feels super comfortable on. I love that there is a cover that I can take off and wash and the whole system is mildly water resistant. I've worn this on longer walks and hikes and gotten some sweat on it and it's completely unaffected by this and like I mentioned - you can clean the cover so it never feels gross or dirty. The audio quality is great - I mean you really need to understand what this unit is what it does. It's certainly not a boombox strapped to your head - but I can feel the bass in certain songs, etc. and the mids and highs are crisp and clean. It's handled everything I've thrown at it very well - from jazz to hip hop to folk to podcasts movies, etc. Audio quality has never left me wanting. Now for integrating into life and how I use it - and I really think that's the key part of this device and why I personally love it so much. First and foremost - I rarely use this around other people or cruising around grocery stores etc. because people absolutely can hear what you are listening to. Around my family if I'm working around the house, etc. I don't mind this too much because its' certainly less loud than a bluetooth speaker would be. So understanding that people do in fact hear what you're listening to really needs to be known before purchasing so there aren't expectation of this being like headphones in that respect. So in regards to the people around you - it's somewhere in-between a bluetooth speaker and a headphones. In regards to how and when I use it...I absolutely love, LOVE walking and hiking with this. I keep it at a moderate volume and I can hear my music or podcast AND the world around me. It's absolutely awesome and it's an experience you really start to rely on - being able to basically add your own soundtrack to the world around you. I also use this a lot when I'm working around the house - home office or organizing the shed, things like that - where I can hear my music and I'm not making the whole neighborhood bump my music like I would be with a big ol' bluetooth speaker. I love that I can set my phone on a charger and walk around the house to get water or go to the restroom or whatever and my media is still playing right in my ears - but if my dog is barking or if my kiddos fall or wife is talking to me - I can totally still be part of the world WHILE I enjoy whatever I listen to. It's really just like adding your own soundtrack to the world and it's super addicting once you experience it.

I received the Bose Soundware right away, after ordering them. The only problem I had was not being able to turn them on and syncing them to my app. After soul searching, the Bose website addressed the problem by syncing the Bose to my laptop via Bose software update. After the update, the Bose tuned on and connected to my app easily. You need to be aware that you may have to update the Bose Soundwear after you receive them if they don't work correctly at first. I bought these specifically to watch movies without bothering my apartment neighbors with my monster sound system, and do they work like a charm! Great sound from movies, with no problems from my Bluetooth lagging. Thank you Bose for this wonderful invention, I sure love it!

As a Senior I can use this product in another room or in the large open common area of house. Sound can be turned down low enough so others can not hear, but I still can. I use it to watch TV or movies on separate device while other family members are doing the same. Easier on my ears thsn headphones or earbuds. Thank you Bose..another great quality product!

Git this in last week. I have not had any success from Bose so I can get it repaired or replaced. I have been buying Bose products since the late 70's. This is by far the worst experience I have ever had with any of their products.

please make these for women or petite people? these are built as a one size fits all & get too heavy after a while. it would also be awesome if behind the neck there was a little groove where the cervical spine hits to make them wearable while watching tv or a movie while lounging on the couch. i am a Bose fanatical consumer, have been a loved your sound since the 90's. help a smaller, older woman out? comfort is everything after 55! ; )

This device is such an awesome idea and well thought out. I use it for work in the office as well as walking and riding my bike. The sound quality is great unless you turn your head either way and lose some of the sound. The phone call experience is wonderful when talking on the phone, crystal clear sound. You can use it with your TV, computer, Ipod, anything with Bluetooth. You can connect two devices at once and hit the very easy function buttons to switch back and forth. I love Bose products, great build quality, great sound, easy to use. I own 4 Bose products and love them all, keep up the fantastic work Bose, such an innovative product! Cheers!
