Bose and LISA have teamed up to launch a limited-edition Bose Ultra Open Earbuds.
With “Rockstar” levels of sound quality and a sleek design inspired by the BLACKPINK star’s latest album, these new headphones are the ultimate audio accessory for Alter Ego superfans. To give you a closer look at the collaboration, check out our unboxing of the Bose x LISA Ultra Open Earbuds in the video above.
The open earbuds boast Bose’s OpenAudio technology that “projects deep, rich sound across a short distance of open space to your ear canal,” per the brand. Unlike traditional earbuds that sit inside the ear canal, the unique open earbud design has a lightweight flex arm that clips onto the outside of the ear — like a clip-on earring — that keeps the earbuds securely and gently on your ear while allowing users to listen to audio while staying aware of their surroundings. They are impressively lightweight with little to no pressure from the ear clamp, making them comfortable to wear for long periods.
“After falling in love with the Ultra Open Earbuds, I wanted to bring my fans a reimagined design that is as bold as my music and style,” the K-pop superstar says in a statement. “Music and fashion are how I express myself, so creating a custom pair was such a natural fit and evolution of my partnership with Bose. My earbuds are always with me, so I never have to sacrifice exceptional sound for style. I would style it like an accessory, as one of my earpieces.”
The White Lotus star puts her own spin on the popular Bose device by adding a glossy black finish and her signature chrome star, which is inspired by her recent Alter Ego album. The Bose x LISA Ultra Open Earbuds are available to purchase now for $399. Fans can also win a chance to meet the BLACKPINK star by entering to win a meet-and-greet campaign with every purchase (limit two items per order) of the new earbuds. The giveaway runs through May 17 and the drawing will be conducted on or around May 27. Shop the earbuds below.
