It’s not just Bose and Shokz with a pair of clip-on earring-inspired earbuds, as Sony launches its own in 2026.
Noise cancelling earphones you can hear through? That’s a future we’ll gladly sign up for, as Shokz shows what its OpenFit Pro can do.
For around $100 for a pair of noise cancelling earbuds, we didn’t expect much. The CMF Buds 2 Plus really challenges expectations.
