Master Buds Open earphones have been officially unveiled by Indian connected lifestyle brand Noise at IFA Berlin 2026, marking the company’s formal entry into the open-ear personal audio market. The product was developed in technical collaboration with Bose and incorporates Sound by Bose audio engineering into a clip-on form factor.
Master Buds Open Design and Hardware Features
The newly announced smart devices utilize an ergonomic clip-on architecture designed for extended daily use. Rather than occluding the ear canal like traditional in-ear monitors, the open acoustic layout allows listeners to hear ambient environmental sounds while playing music, participating in voice calls, or managing mobile notifications.
According to the manufacturer, the hardware is targeted at daily commuters, active outdoor users, and remote professionals working in shared spaces who require situational awareness alongside wireless playback.
Integration into the Master Series Lineup
The release of the Master Buds Open expands the existing Master Series portfolio from Noise, which previously encompassed in-ear and over-ear models including Master Buds, Master Buds 2, and Master Buds Max. With this addition, the company now maintains personal audio products spanning in-ear, over-ear, and open-ear form factors.
“The Master Series was envisioned as our definitive expression of premium audio, bringing together thoughtful design, exceptional sound and meaningful consumer experiences. The response to Master Buds, Master Buds 2 and Master Buds Max has been phenomenal, and with Master Buds Open, we are taking the portfolio into its natural next chapter. Open-ear listening is emerging as an important category globally, and we believe consumers should not have to choose between great sound and awareness of their surroundings.”

“Presenting Master Buds Open at IFA Berlin makes this launch especially significant for us. As one of the world’s most prestigious technology platforms, IFA provides the ideal stage to showcase the continued evolution of the Master Series and our growing premium ambitions to a global audience.”
