I’m a fan of listening to music anywhere, so when I first saw the FINIS SwiMP3 I couldn’t help but stare in disbelief. The SwiMP3 is actually a music playing device that works underwater.
It’s a little strange to think of, but through bone conduction (transfer of sound to the inner ear through the bones) the SwiMP3 is a fully-functional mini-boom box that attaches to your goggles. It features multiple buttons for options such as play/pause, shuffle and simply skipping through songs.
The SwiMP3 offers 1 GB of space, which is a ton when you’re considering how much time you actually spend underwater. This bad boy is something else!
