Remote workers who want to enjoy music without bothering family or roommates have no choice but to use headphones or earbuds all day. Or do they? Sony just announced its new SRS-NB10 wireless Neckband Speaker<\/a>, an audio device that sits on your shoulders and aims sound toward your ears. Sony calls this speaker the \u201cperfect work-from-home product,\u201d and honestly, it\u2019s a great idea.<\/p>\n

Just to be clear, neckband speakers have existed for quite a while. Brands like Bose<\/a> and JBL<\/a> sell neck speakers, and Sony itself launched a SRS-WS1<\/a> speaker back in 2019. While they aren\u2019t exactly popular, neckband speakers are useful for watching TV without disturbing other people, hosting conference calls without wearing\u00a0 bulky headphones, and listening to music in environments where your ears need to be free, like the gym.<\/p>\n

Sony\u2019s new SRS-NB10 speaker is a bit unique, though. Not only is it impressively slim, but it\u2019s geared entirely toward remote workers, with features like beamforming microphones for increased call quality, a dedicated mute button, and a genuinely impressive 20-hour battery life.<\/p>\n

Other features include IPX4 sweat-resistance (good for light workouts), USB-C quick charging, and dual-device connectivity that lets you quickly jump between audio sources. While Sony is certainly targeting remote workers with the SRS-NB10, it could easily find its way out of the home office.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth mentioning that similar audio solutions, such as bone conduction headphones, can achieve the same goals as neckband speakers without bleeding audio into a room. General<\/a>ly speaking, that makes them a better option for busy office environments or gyms.<\/p>\n

Sony plans to sell the SRS-NB10 in both charcoal gray and white colorways. Pre-orders<\/a> for the device will open this September for $150.<\/p>\n
