Half wearable speaker, half headphone, Bose’s Soundwear Companion is a strange product that’s hard to fully grasp unless you’ve tried it out. I liked it when I tried it, but the big strike against it was its high price of $300. However, at $149 — which is what Amazon, Best Buy and others are selling it …

Every two years or so, AfterShokz releases a new bone-conduction headphone that’s a little better than the last one. New for 2019 is the Aeropex, which AfterShokz says are its “lightest, highest-quality headphones yet.” The Aeropex is available now in “cosmic” black for $160 or £150.

When Microsoft released its Surface Headphones last year, I thought it might have trouble selling its first noise-canceling headphones for the same price — $350 — as highly regarded competing products from Bose and Sony.

I’ve been playing around with an early review sample and while it’s certainly not cheap, it’s the best-sounding set of …
