Why Wired, Why Now?
The wired earbuds trend has been building since Apple brought back the USB-C port. Wired earbuds eliminate Bluetooth latency, battery anxiety, and pairing hassles. At $99, these undercut Bose's own wireless offerings by $200+ while delivering the same ANC technology. They're aimed at commuters, office workers, and anyone tired of charging yet another device.
