The Orosound Tilde headphones aren’t truly wireless—each earbud is connected to the other via a flexible neckband—but they do have a few tricks up their sleeves. These Kickstarter-backed earbuds are designed for “well-being in the office,” according to the company.

Let me explain: The Tildes feature adjustable noise cancellation, which lets you determine how much background noise is (or isn’t) filtered through, as well as a special “talk-in-noise” mode that lets you hear only the person you’re talking to. The talk-in-noise mode filters out ambient noise (including human voices) around you and filters in voices coming from in front of you (within a 60-degree “cone”), so you can easily talk to someone face-to-face in a crowded setting. If you use the Tilde earbuds for listening to music or the “talk-in-noise” mode, you’ll get eight hours of battery life, while if you just use the earbuds for adjustable noise cancellation, you’ll get a whopping 20 hours. The Tilde earbuds will be available this summer for $300.
