Flows audio glasses are a smart fit in the right scenarios

I like the idea of wearable audio devices. Atari’s Speakerhat is one of my favorite examples because it enables me to hear Bluetooth sound without having to shut out the world. I’ve tried open-back earphones for this purpose, but they don’t help me when I need to hear a kid yelling for me from the other side of my home. So I was excited to try out the Flows audio glasses, which work exactly like you would expect.

Flows Bruno’s and Taylor’s glasses are available now for $150. They come as sunglasses with black lenses, but you can get a separate lens pack with different colors and styles, such as  transparent. The lenses have UVA/UVB polarized protection — although that created some issues for me. It uses Bluetooth to connect to devices and has a built-in microphone. And its battery lasts for 5 hours on a charge.
