Bose SoundSport in-Ear Headphones for iOS Models, Green

I was getting rather tired of my few pairs of cheap earbuds having used them daily and not really getting a great quality sound in return, so I decided to take the plunge on a premium pair and chose the Bose SoundSport. Being a runner and highly active I used my earbuds mostly while exercising or at the gym so I wanted to stay with a smaller compact earbud style as opposed to something clunky. My main concerns were: - "Open" earbuds that stay hanging on your ears likely lose a lot of quality with sound escaping the ear canal - "Closed" earbuds that use some sort of silicon seal have a very strong occlusion effect that ruins the listening experience with the sound of your own breathe and footstep thuds... ugh - Also these closed style earbuds block out ambient noise which could be dangerous while running, riding a bike, etc. - The sealed earbuds are sometime prone to popping out of your ear with any slight tug on the cord I settled on this Bose pair because they were one of the few options that seemingly solved all of those issues. I've used these for a year now and I am extremely satisfied with them. The sound quality is excellent, I have never had an issue with them falling out, the fit is perfect (they come with 3 different sized tips), they are easy to put in and take out, and the control bar on the cord is SUPER useful. These have solved all of those issues and are a nice looking pair of headphones as well with some subtle but helpful bonus features such as the adjustable clothing clip, carrying case, and extension cord. Some other reviewers have mentioned problems with the audio jack. I do wish Bose had designed the plug with an angled jack instead of a straight jack because if you keep this in your pocket I could see how it might get worn out from all the friction. All I can say is use the carrying case and take decent care of the headphones and you should have minimal issues. Great headphones otherwise and I highly recommend them.

My kids say they sound better than the cordless ones .

Best Headphones I've tried! I have tried way too many headphones in my life. I am a runner and I always have trouble keeping headphones in my ears. As soon as I start to get a good sweat going, they always seem to fall out. With the rubber pieces that sit into the pocket of the outer ear, I haven't had ANY problems keeping these in my ears. The sound quality is great since they are bose. I don't think I will every try any other headphones. I was hesitant to spend the money because I have tried to many headphones, but they are well worth the money! I would like it if they made more colors, but all in all these headphones are fantastic! I bought my boyfriend a pair for his birthday and he loves his just as much. I would highly recommend these if you are looking for a great sounding pair of headphones that are also comfortable and stay in your ears when you sweat. They also come with 3 different sized ear pieces to accommodate different ear sizes. I found the medium worked the best for me :)

I was doubting about getting these ones due to the reviews, for replacing the previous model. Yes, they might not be as comfortable as the old ones, or as the new true sound (much more expensive), but they are fine once you get used to them, and the sound quality is GREAT! Great value for money

I've tried many varieties of earphones but Imost don't fit me all that well, and most don't stay in place after 5 minutes of exercise. I have tried triple flanges, foam inserts of all shapes, and over the ear loops but I've never made it through an entire run without having to readjust at least a few times. The Bose SoundSports are the first pair that fit so well that I can barely feel them. They were perfectly comfortable and extremely stable in my ears. I ran 5 miles and got very sweaty and there was no movement or slippage at all. They come with three sizes and the soft silicone inserts. They hold the earphones solidly in place without exerting pressure. I could't even shake them loose when I tried. I had previously used Shure SE215s and the sound was richer and they had better base, but the SE215s are sound isolating and these Bose are not. For running I actually prefer to have a little ambient sound get through for safety, and the sound quality of the BOSE is still excellent. If you like heavy base you might be a little disappointed. The cable is sturdy and there is a straight jack so it should fit through most phone cases. The volume and mic controls are light but sturdy feeling. They also come with a small alligator clip to keep the cord from tugging, which is nice. I just got them so I can't comment on durability, but so far they are the best running phones I've had.

I’m assuming this is some kind of knock off and not true Bose quality had constant issues with this thing randomly lowering volume down to nothing and the microphone for the phone not working then as I sit here in the sauna actually just sitting here the cable to the microphone and volume control happens to just slide out and now the headphones won’t work. What a terrible product.

Bose is BOSS. No second thoughts about it.

Me llegó en excelentes condiciones y se escuchan de igual manera.

Great sound. Bought these to replace mine that got lost in luggage from holiday. They are the only ones I like to run either as the fittings suit my ears. I thought they were new as the pictures showed the original accessories but when they arrived they were in a generic black case and the packaging actually had a label saying refurbished. So a little disappointing, also saw that the price dropped £8 after my purchase. However the quality is fab and they were delivered in good time from the US

Sound of it is bliss.... must buy

Excellent sound. Works great at the gym. Fit is snug and comfortable.
