Bose Soundsport Sweatproof Bluetooth Wireless In Ear Earphones With Mic For Running And Sports, Black

It has been more than a year that i purchased and have been using this product and i must say that this is a very premium best in class product i have ever purchased in a reasonable budget given the best in class quality and durability Bose provides. The sound quality is very clear; noice cancellation is very good and the bass effect too is very good. Having experienced using this earphone has given me a completely new best in class music listening experience. Thank you very much Amazon for making available such great products that provides the best in class experience with the best value for money.

My First wireless earphones and Bose it is. I have used them for a week now and i would just say one word "Awesome". Nothing in this world is perfect, the same goes with Bose Soundsport Wireless headphones. The price has reduced to 12k one week after i bought them for 13k, the only reason to feel bad about. I would list the pros and cons for this gadget: Pros: 1)Sound quality. I guess the first and foremost aspect of a good earphone should be the quality of sound and it has all of it. 2)Comfort. We can choose from 3 earbud sizes.They look big but doesnt feel heavy. They dont fall down even during intense workout if fixed properly into the ear. 3)Connectivity. Connects to device in no time. 4) Features. a)It doesnt have noise cancellation feature. But at and around the max volume it does the job of negating background sound pretty well. b)The small remote on the earphone is extremely helpful. You can use it to decrease/increase volume, forward/rewind songs, take calls c)You can also use it to speak to google assistant even in between songs. Just long press the middle button on the remote and ask/instruct whatever you want to. For me while travelling i use it to make calls by just instructing google assistant to call X, Y, Z person on my contact list and it does the job. d) Tells you about the battery % when you switch it on. Cons: 1)Battery life could have been better. It gives 6 hours of full charge. 2)The ear phones could have been smaller.

I'll segmentize my review for better understanding. Build : Like any other Bose product, it's well built. Adequate care has been taken in designing even the tiniest part of the earphone. Rubberish feel on outside, inside is metal. Button on the earpiece is hard though. Buttons on the volume controller gives feel of duality, actually the finger tends to slide sideways when you press. However, they are tactile and responsive. Connecting wire seems to be sturdy. The earphone will try to lean towards the controller side, obviously by additional weight. But the clip has been perfectly placed to keep the earphones centred around the neck. Water Resistant : Works perfectly after splashes, can easily withstand sweat during running and workouts. Comfort and feel : In my view they are bulky earphones, if you compare them with other options in the market. They are quite noticable as they protrude a long way. Despite the size they are quite comfortable, even after long wear. The eartips sits on the ear canal, not inside the canal. The wings on the eartips try to keep the earpiece in place during strong body movements. They won't fall out of ears easily during excercise. Sound Quality : Bose have always tried to maintain near neutral sound signture. If you have ever used Bose earphone or headphone, you can notice that this one has slightly deeper base, but not too deep as the eartips don't enter the earcanal. The mids are clear and highs are clear. I feel the sound signture has been trimmed on both sides to make these more comfortable to listen during running or workouts. You got to choose eartips that matches your earshape, it's very crucial. When you become habitual to slightly different eartips, their comfort reaches close to over the ear headphones. Obviously the purpose is sport not audiophile. Overall, a good sounding earphone. Noise isolation is downside of these earphones. They won't match even normal in ear earphones, leave alone the noise cancellation earphones. Maybe Bose designed them to wear outdoors and make the person aware about the surrounding. Definitely not suitable in very noisy environment. You have to pump up volume button to overpower the noise. But in normal conditions like parks, these work like charm. Connectivity : Absolutely no issues. NFC works like magic for pairing. SBC and AAC codecs are there based on the harware of your phone or device. AAC offers slightly better sound Quality due to increased bit rate. Lack of AptX or AptxHD won't bother you much. Connectivity don't break by going to other room. Auto power off saves the battery. And they can be paired again just a press of button, power or the middle button of the controller. And they pair again promptly with battery level voice Indication. Call Quality : Call quality is very decent. They try to supress the surrounding noise and the person on the other side can hear you clearly. Never faced any issue in call. Battery life: Battery life is average for the size of earphones. At max they'll go for 6 Hrs of continous use. My opinion is that if you are looking for robust earphones for workouts and running with decent sound quality, accepting the lack of noise cancellation, you should go for these. Bose won't disappoint you.

Updated 23 July 2022 My first piece failed and I got a weird turquoise color which they promised to replace as soon as black was back in stock - it never happened in 5 months. Meanwhile the second one failed and after 2 weeks they claim they don't have it in stock. I guess they're just buying time till my warranty expires >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Original review It connected seamlessly with my running watch and worked great for 3 months. Fit was good, sound quality was great, charge lasted long. Then it abruptly stopped charging. Since it is STILL IN WARRANTY I tried reaching Bose support on phone, email - no response for 3 days and then I posted on Twitter. I got a call back from a different number that's not on the Bose site and they gave me an address for a service center in Bangalore that I'm unable to find. I called the Service Center's contact number given by Customer support and there's no response after trying thrice in 10 days. No response when I call the Bose customer support number either. I had a similar experience with Bose support for my Bose Soundlink Mini II which was also under warranty Right now Amazon is selling the same item at 30% less than what I paid in Aug '21. But given the appalling state of customer support, I would strongly recommend against this !

I already owned a pair of Sound True around-ear wired headphone from BOSE and I truly love them. The reason behind choosing Bose headphones are mainly due to the sound quality, which keeps Bose separate from the other brands and the SoundSport Wireless is no different. The build quality is great and it connects with the mobile/laptop Bluetooth without any issue. However, I must admit the design is a bit outdated compared to the other competitor brands in the market. It feels a bit heavy in my ear after wearing for more than 2 to 3 hours. Also, the battery stays alive for about 6 hours, which is also below average compared to the other brands. I haven't tested them while running. I yet to understand the wind impact on the sound. Also, the Bose is known for its durability. I hope my pair stays with me for long. If you seek for sound quality then hands down Bose, however, if the design is the main concern for you then you need to look elsewhere.

I've spent the last few years buying in-ear headphones and regretting it, each time going back to over-the-head style headphones. I have been using Bose QC35 and older wired Beats headphones attached to a bluetooth adapter mainly... I appreciate paying a bit more for decent quality products. Apple in-ear headphones just fall out constantly, Beats in-ear ones don't stay in closely so the sound is tinny. It dawned on me that using Amazon I could try some alternatives again and return them if they were naff. I read and watched reviews and these Bose SoundSport Wireless ones seemed to do pretty well, though as usual there were some mixed biasses towards and against the product. Some saying they are flimsy, some saying they are uncomfortable, some saying they are too big. Personally I'm WELL IMPRESSED with these. They are the first in-ear devices that stay in my ears without any messing around! There's a rubber flap that gently secures them as it fits into the curves of the ear itself. I have been wearing them for cycling and walking (decent distances) and they remain secure and not needing to be constantly "fiddled with" and pushed back in like others I've tried. There is ample noise cancelling but not so much that you can't hear the surroundings. The sound quality is remarkable. It sounds daft to say it, but I find them so comfortable that sometimes I forget I'm wearing them and get a shock when I hear music so close to my ears! I feel safe cycling in them, though on windy days there can be the sound of a little wind whistling around my ears. There's no problem with the charging mechanism - the flap opens easily. The device works with the same Bose mobile app as my QC35 headphones - so can be customised via this. I'm writing this review because I'm chuffed to have found some "in ear" headphones that work well for me, and which are (in my opinion) really very good!

There's a reason these are so highly rated on the web. These things are a DREAM come true! My one and only device from Bose are some noise-cancelling headphones I use for flights, and they have lasted me for years. Based on the reviews of these guys, and my experience with Bose, I decided to take the plunge and purchase them. I was really looking for something that I could take to the gym 5x a week, could take a beating in the gym bag, wouldn't fry when exposed to sweat, and most importantly: were comfortable / stayed in the ear during workouts. This product ticked all those boxes and more. I literally have almost nothing negative to say about these EXCEPT for this: the music quality is probably average-ish. Since they seem to stick out of your ears quite a bit, the sound feels very open and the music isn't isolated in your ear. This could be a great feature for runners, but in the gym, I end up hearing a bit of background noise. However, since the Bose SoundSport set impresses me so much in every other area, I could easily overlook this one negative thing. My recommendation: BUY IT NOW! See attached images for details.

Great sound overall. I previously had Plantronics over the ear which lasted well with heavy use. The Bose fits into the ear with a bud - style fitting giving some degree of passive noise cancelling. But not too much so I do hear buses coming from behind and have an awareness of ambient noise/wind (which I think is necessary if you are walking around town/running etc). I've used for running in light rain and so far seems to be able to cope. I was worried they would be a bit delicate but they've survived a month of being shoved in a pocket, hung around my neck and general daily use. They look good and fine for office and urban use. If these were just for running I would prefer a more rugged build and for the cable to be woven for extra strength - but as I use in both environments I'm happy with the design. Other reviews said they stick out a bit - but I haven't had anyone point and laugh at me yet. I prefer the wired version to the True WIreless as I'd just lose those things. I can just hang around my neck and so far they haven't fallen off with almost daily use and walking around quite a bit. The sound is good and Bose balanced - so good for a wide range of music (I listen to almost anything) and also podcasts sound good too. I've used on a few phone calls whilst driving and found the sound quality my side to be good and the other person hears me fine. The battery is ok - not as good as the 14 hours I used to get with Plantronics. But 10 hours is ok and I think the tradeoff is that you get really good Bluetooth coverage. In fact, it's almost too good. I was the other side of the office and still connected which is great - but when I put my phone near my Bluetooth keyboard it seems to create issues. So my thinking is the Bluetooth is very strong. The Bose app is basic, it pairs easily and without fuss. I guess that's all you want. But wouldn't mind a few things to play with, although I'm a purist with sound and don't expect an equalizer - but have had many arguments with others about this. The volume is fine. I do find I have it up around 80% of max most of the time. I think I wouldn't be able to deafen myself even at max volume. Probably a good thing as I tend to want the sound to be loud and I expect the engineers have decided that any louder and you'll damage the product and your eardrums.

I have different bose models, and apple airpods pro and pro 2, yet I get back to this model, superb sound quality for music and calls, also the other side hears well on phone calls, Only downside is battery life, wish it's better.
