It’s no mistake that the word “wired” can be used to describe someone who is nervous, jumpy, or uptight. Wired headphones are no exception, as they are prone to snagging on random objects, fraying, and balling up into a tangled mess. The antidote to audio accessory anxiety lies in going wireless — like with the N1 Bluetooth Wireless In-Ear Headphones. And here’s some more music to your ears: They’re on sale now for just $39.99.

The N1 earbuds are ergonomically designed to fit securely and comfortably through hours of listening so they won’t pop out if you finally decide to exercise. They’re bound together with a flexible, contoured neckband, which means you won’t have to worry about losing them should they fall out of your ears. When you do need to put them away, the buds can be magnetically anchored so that they won’t get twisted or tangled in your bag. Read more…
