Problems with longevitity

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2017

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

For starters, I've always been a big fan of Bose products. We have a 5.1 surround sound system in the house, I have noise cancelling headphones I use for travel, etc.
I was given these as a Christmas gift in 2016. The product worked flawlessly for about a year. Evidently there is a 1-year warranty on the product, and of course just after Christmas 2017 the product started having issues. It won't hold a charge, will shut down suddenly, etc. For a Bose product, especially given the cost, I would expect much more.

soundsport vs. airpod. vs. soundsport free: classic soundsport still the best.

Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2018

Color: AquaVerified Purchase

This is my 2nd pair of these headphones - and they are my favorites. I also own an old pair of around-ear bose soundlinks, the soundsport free, and the apple airpods. All have their pros and cons, as I will explain below. The only experience I have with noise-cancellers is with the sony wh-1000xm2 that my wife got as a surprise gift (she loves them).

These are my favorite headphones for running or working out, and also watching movies on an airplane. The sound and fit is nearly identical to the soundsport free. They sound like bose headphones - pretty good, you can probably get better sound but there will be compromises in other areas. The soundsport free's have a few strange compromises to eliminate the wire - phone calls only play through the right side, and they have trouble pairing to my laptop (a razer running windows 10)- they would only pair in headset mode and not music mode. I would blame razer or microsoft, but I've never had this problem with any other headphone. These Soundsport have no nonsense with oddities like that, and the reception is a bit better as the antenna is in the wire, not enough to make a difference in practice. But there is, of course, a wire. I consider this a good thing when I run (and I run almost every day) as I tuck it into my headband to keep them from moving. I also have a lot of hair so it can be hard to fit the free's back in on the fly, need to clear all the hair out of your ear first, same with any in-ear. You can also dangle one phone from the wire around your neck without worrying about it. The buttons are much easier to press. The only downside is, they charge using a micro-usb and not the usb-C that my laptop, phone, and nintendo switch use. In fairness, the frees, sony's, and bose's soundlinks use micro-usb, too, so you'll be stuck needing to worry about an extra charging cord no matter what.

By comparison, I wanted to also mention how these compare to the airpods and free's. Both of those eliminate the wire, but with the addition of a charging case that has an extra battery. The apple case is quite discreet, whereas the bose free case is hilariously huge. If you keep your phone in an otterbox or it is a panasonic toughpad, you probably won't mind the bose case. It makes quite a bump in your jeans pocket. The airpods have some funky pairing mechanisms that make them difficult to use if you have other apple equipment - For work, my employer has given me an iphone 7 and an older macbook pro from 2015. Switching the airpods between these devices will occasionally require the device be signed out and back into icloud - which is a huge headache. After the 2nd time of hitting the massive icloud reset button in the sky, they have been relegated to phone use only with my xperia. This is where the airpods excel - phone calls play through both ears, you can use both, or either one, or even share one with a colleague for a conference call. The mike is great at noise cancelling, and I work in very noisy environments. Both pods have a mike and the work some voodoo when you wear both of them to cancel out almost all noise. They do a lot of really nice stuff.

My personal phone is a sony xperia xz1, and the airpods pair to and work with the sony without any hiccup, never failing to pair. They also pair to my windows laptop fine, but will only connect to one device at a time (They forget the other device and must be re-paired, which is quite painless but still an annoyance compared to the Bose). They also sound really really bad, and don't have any controls other than a play/pause by either 'double flicking' either pod while it's in your ear, or removing one pod to pause. You can find better-sounding BT headphones than the airpods for under $20, and they will have much better controls, but they won't have apple branding. The airpods charging case requires an apple-specific lightning cable, but one comes in the box so it's not a huge deal.

The soundsport free's, by contrast, feature the excellent sound quality of the soundsports, IMO they sound even better because they are newer. They are my favorite headphones for just listening to music around the house or taking a quick phone call. Unlike the airpods, they don't really work with just one. The right bud is the "master": it is used for phone calls (there is no mike in the left bud), it also has the +,...,- buttons on the top, which are slightly awkward because they are hard to press. The left bud does not play voice calls, it is used for music only. It also has the BT pairing button on it. You can almost get away with using only the right bud, so long as you don't want/need to switch devices. You can also use just the left bud, but the right bud needs to be kept within range (e.g., in a pocket) and also out of the charging case.

However, the soundsport free's have one big advantage, or disadvantage depending on your use case, and there is no wire connecting them. Because I have long and bushy/curly hair, my hair will push the wire around if I'm not wearing a headband or hat (e.g. whenever I'm not running) and it will cause the headphones to come loose. That is a thing of the past with the free's, and the free's are the only headphones I have ever used where I can stick them in and forget them - the airpods are slightly better than the wired headphones included with the iphone (best just left in the box, IMO) but will still fall out and bounce all over the floor if you turn your head even slightly to one side. I have noticed that if sweat gets into the free's they get a bad honky sound to them, and then need to be rinsed out. If sweat gets into the regular soundsports, they just get quieter (muffled) and the volume can then be turned up to compensate.

Both versions of soundsport are quite discreet as they stick mostly within the ear area. The airpods have a white stalk that dangles below the earlobe... this contains the battery and antenna so it is necessary for now but it is quite noticable, as they are bright white. Depending on the earrings I'm wearing the stalk can clack against the earring. Right now I'm wearing 4awg glass spirals and I wear them all the time, they definitely clack into the airpods. However, the airpods are still small enough that people will want to talk to you and not realize you have headphones in to ignore them on purpose. For this purpose (e.g. airports, lounges, etc) the Soundlink around-ear's still reign supreme (mine are bright white from 2015, even with my hair they cannot be missed).

If you are concerned about price, these soundsports are the least expensive of the 3 (although in such a case it is hard to argue against a pair of jvc or koss gummy headphones for 9 dollars, and live with the wire going to your phone... if the wire rips, it's only $9... I also bought my first soundsport in 2016 and they were 150 even back then - the airpods being 160 and free's being a bit more around 200. Ideally Bose would have introduced the free's at 150 and dropped the regular soundsport to 120 or so, but I don't think any of these brands are competing on price. The IT man gave me the airpods, I would not have spent my own money on them.

My first pair died after about 2 years of daily use - early morning runs and then showers. While bose advertises them as waterproof, they are not necessarily sweatproof, dirtproof, chlorine proof, shampoo proof, etc. My 2nd pair I have been careful to rinse them out in the shower after every run, I've had them for about 8 months now and they are still going strong. I sometimes wear the airpods in the shower too and they are holding up fine, but they fall out easily (same reason why I don't run with them) and their sound is really only meant for phone calls and spoken word, not music. I try to avoid getting the soundsport free's wet. I'm sure they are just as waterproof as the regular soundsports, but there's no easy way to dry them off without worry about losing them (don't want to put in case wet, can't be hung from the towel rack because no wire, looks suspiciously like a doggo treat, etc).

Long story short, if I only had one pair of headphones, it would be these. If I didn't run and exercise so much, it would be the free's. If I never listened to music and only used them for phone calls and podcasts, it would be the airpods. But, I like to run and I like to listen to music, so... the end!

Fit and sounded good...but the battery is now dead AN UPDATE

Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2017

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

THIS IS THE AMENDED REVIEW
Less than a month after I began using the BOSE SoundSport Earbuds, the battery life has gone from 2 hours to no hours. After having the headphones plugged into my computer overnight, when I pressed the power button, nothing happened. The unit no longer holds a charge. I guess I'll have to stick with wires when listening at the gym.

And now the original review.

I purchased these Bose SoundSports to replace a different brand of blu-tooth earbuds that quit working a week after I purchased them. While the Bose headphones are a comfortable fit and do sound good while I am listening to either music or an audiobook when using the rowing machine or stationary bike at the gym, I am less impressed with the battery life. I have never had more than about 2 hours of battery life since the purchase. I won't go into the schematic of my workouts, but each last approximately an hour. At the end of the 2nd workout, the headphones register that the battery is near depletion. So much for the 6 hours of battery life Bose advertises.

Get these if fit and sound quality rather than battery life are what you are looking for.

Power Users May Experience Functional Problems With This Unit

Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2018

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I bought these headphones almost a year ago - February of 2017. I am about to return them for a replacement for the second time. The quality and audio performance are top notch but the problem I have been having has to do with the volume controls. The rubber around the volume controls pops out and there is no obvious way to "pop" it back in without potentially voiding your warranty. I contacted Bose directly within six months of purchasing them for the first time this occurred. Bose support is great and they set up a warranty replacement for me rather quickly and without a lot of trouble. This morning, I noticed that my headphones are doing the same thing again. I tried looking for some reviews that described this problem but haven't been able to find anything other than some "sweat" problem from 2016.

I doubt my issue is related to sweat. I do use my headset daily and it often just hangs around my neck. I don't understand how this occurs but sweat is not the issue.

If you're a power user and want trouble-free headphones, this may not be the unit for you. Granted, Bose is going to provide you with great customer service but Bose is supposed to be a solid name in audio technology. Their audio quality is definitely high-bar. But this issue is annoying and should be investigated and corrected.

Bose oder nicht Bose? Bose! Der SoundSport ist mit dabei. Läuft bei uns ..

Reviewed in Germany on October 14, 2018

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

.. und um es gleich vorweg zu nehmen: Sitzt. Passt. Fällt beim Joggen auf, aber nicht aus den Ohren.
Wir waren im Vorfeld durchaus skeptisch, da wir bisher einen Sport-Kopfhörer mit Ohrbügel hatten.
Das war ebenfalls ein Wireless-Modell, der Sound war leider nicht besonders, und er ging nun kaputt.
Daraufhin haben wir das Plantronics BackBeat Fit 2100 ausprobiert, und waren davon sehr enttäuscht.
Das Plantronics BackBeat Fit 2100 hat ein Grundrauschen, und das geht bei einem Headset gar nicht.

Wer Bose mag, wird die SoundSport lieben. Der Klang ist Bose-typisch und wir sind davon begeistert.
Wenn Sie Ihre Erwartungshaltung vor dem Kauf abwägen, werden Sie mit diesen Bose zufrieden sein.
Als gelungen empfinden wir die App. Die Kopplung funktioniert einfach, die Bedienung kinderleicht.
Wir werden die Kopfhörer hauptsächlich beim Laufen nutzen, und dafür haben wir sie ja auch gekauft.
Wer es mag, kann sie natürlich auch beim Wellness, im Büro und zum Entspannen auf Reisen einsetzen.

Bei Lieferung waren die Sport-Kopfhörer zu 50% aufgeladen, so konnten wir Sie gleich ausprobieren.
Die SoundSport lassen sich auch dank der Stay here-Sporteinsätze schnell und leicht im Ohr einsetzen.
Und wenn Sie einmal sitzen, bleiben Sie auch im Ohr, ohne dass man beim Laufen nachjustieren muss.
Wir sind gleich einmal 15 km am Stück gelaufen und hatten die SoundSport durchgehend in den Ohren.
Der Sitz ist angenehm: nichts drückt, und das Kabel haben wir am Hinterkopf - man merkt es gar nicht.

Sicherheit: auch wenn es InEar-Kopfhörer sind: man bekommt von der Umgebung ausreichend mit.
Vorbeifahrende Autos hört man rechtzeitig. Und klingelnde Radfahrer bekommen Sie auch zu hören.
Und wenn Sie über das Herbstlaub laufen, hören Sie selbst die Blätter unter Ihren Schuhen rascheln.
Natürlich kommt es darauf an, wie laut Sie Ihre Musik hören, aber das ist bei jedem Headset gleich.

Bei Lieferung hatten sie den Firmware-Stand 1.0.9. Über die App haben wir sie auf 2.5.3 upgedatet.
Interessant: das Herstellungsdatum ist auf April 2018 datiert. Damit sind sie über ein 1/2 Jahr alt.
Wo waren sie so lange zwischen Herstellung und Lieferung? Ein Ladenhüter sind sie jedenfalls nicht.
Denn wie man anhand der vielen Rezensionen erkennen kann, sind die SoundSport oft im Einsatz.

Wir empfinden die Verarbeitung als wertig, ebenfalls ausgezeichnet ist auch die Qualität beim Etui.
Dennoch haben wir uns das Lade-Transportetui (Euro 35,-) bestellt, das ist stabiler für unterwegs.
Zudem bietet es neben dem besseren Schutz quasi als Powerbank noch zusätzliche Akkuladungen.
Apropos Laufzeit: damit sind wir sehr zufrieden. Wir laden die SoundSport etwa einmal in der Woche.
Das ist jedoch individuell. Praktisch: beim Einschalten wird die verbleibende Akku-Laufzeit angesagt.

Nicht ausprobiert haben wir das Freisprechen bzw. das Mikrofon. Das ist uns beim Sport nicht wichtig.
Wichtig ist uns jedoch die Verarbeitungsqualität. Und damit sind wir bis dato auch äußerst zufrieden.
Sollte sich unser bisheriger Eindruck ändern, werden wir dies natürlich gerne entsprechend ergänzen.

Das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis geht für uns in Ordnung. Von uns gibt's Stand heute eine Empfehlung.

Wenn Ihnen die Rezension gefallen hat, freuen wir uns über eine entsprechende "Nützlich"-Rückmeldung.
Vielen Dank!

Best Sound , Heavy earphones!

Reviewed in India on August 2, 2018

Color: CitronVerified Purchase

I have been using various headphones in past. From wired Bose, cx street to v moda, also owned Jaybird X3, before they died. Writing this review after 2 weeks of use:
Lemme say , the technology has improved over years just like smartphones, I guess. My list of pros and cons:

Pros:
1. Sound: This time, Bose did tweak the volume EQ a lot. You can hear tracks from various genres, with the right flavour you want. For instance, these wireless earphones will adapt to each song, no need to set your own eq, or raise the volume to listen to your piano or any favorite part of a track.
2. Volume: one thing I dislike about noise isolation or other wireless headphones is volume. It varies with Android and iOS. Even calls. Clarity is so good, I now keep the volume around 60 percent, as compared to jabra elite.
3. Connectivity: It pairs before you prompt your Bluetooth. No need to scan devices , which is so cumbersome.

Cons:
1. Weight: a bit on the heavier side. You may feel fatigue around earlobes, which is not seen in jabra or jaybird. Maybe, the main earpiece is heavy. Also hangs around the ear a lot. Looks ugly!
2. App: No use of bose connect app.
3. Sound cancellation: None. Not even isolation.
4. Charging: would have loved a case, rather than cable.

The best despite imperfections

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 19, 2018

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I bought these as a replacement for my old soundsport wired in ears, and they do not disappoint. The sound is pretty much equivalent to the wired version, tending toward the bass as a sporty headphone, but no overly so, good isolation with the included tips, and going loud enough to block out all outside noise.

I was initially put off by the look, make no mistake, these are bulky. They stick out from your ears a good inch, and you are always are you are wearing them, although they're still very comfortable, the shape of bose tips fits my ears perfectly. In fact I almost sent them back because of this.

Then I started to appreciate them more based on their advantages over their competitors:

Because the earpieces are so bulky there's no long, heavy wire like on the beats x to get trapped during workouts on a bench, or flap around, pulling the buds out and leading to cable noise. The sound quality on these also blows the beats out of the water. I would say powerbeats come close, but wearing over the ear clips day to day makes you look almost as silly as these bulky things.

Charging uses a standard micro usb into the right earpod, which is covered by a flap of rubberised plastic. This I feel is a weak point as the flap seems like it will tear after extended use. However, it is a much preferable solution to the proprietary charger used by the Jaybird X3's.

Battery seems closer to 7 hours than the advertised 8, but a 10 minute charge refills almost two hours of playback. Battery can be improved using the bose connect app to reduce the amount of time before the headphones go to sleep when they don't receive any sound.

The app is pretty bare bones, it can generate funny names for your buds, and allows you to stream the same audio to two pairs of bose headphones. There aren't any EQ options however, which would be nice to see. You can change the language of voice prompts (Please add UK english), or turn them off entirely.

The inline volume controller seems a bit clunky, it has your usual up and down volume, play, pause, hold to activate siri. But the buttons are covered by a rubber membrane that sometimes makes them hard to press.

Conclusion: Currently the best bluetooth in ears on the market in my opinion. Yes, they have their flaws, size being a significant one. But if you can get past that, the sound is better than any of it's nearest competitors, and without any of the even greater drawbacks that others have. If you buy them and dislike them because of their size, wait a day before sending them back, and try to find something better, I couldn't.

Not Perfect But Better.

Reviewed in India on October 16, 2018

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I've used some quality earphones before, so I know the difference between good sound and bad sound.
This one is the best sounding wireless pair I've ever tried in this budget. Not for bass lovers, if they have used Sony before.

Before purchasing I had gone through Bose official website to check from where I need to buy. Amazon was on the list.
I had called up Bose Customer service for more details regarding the headset and got to know that Appario Retail Private Ltd is an authorized seller on their list.
My next move, Open Amazon and click on add to cart.

Thanks to Amazon and Appario Retail Private Ltd for the One day delivery.
The package was in perfect shape when I received it. Perfectly packed, Brand New. Thumbs Up.

The SoundSoundSport Wireless is a very comfortable in-ear wireless sports headphone that's sweat resistant and sounds great.
The earphones fit securely in your ears, Thanks to the winged tips.
The headphone works decently as a headset for making cell-phone calls and has an auto-off feature to preserve battery life.
The volume control and multifunction button works fine.

However, SoundSoundSport Wireless is a little bulky but don't feel heavy. If you want the earphones to be obscure then this is not for you.
Lacks with the battery life tops out at 6 hours when we can see few of the new wireless earphones giving us 10-18 hours of play.
No Noise cancellation, Not very good while going on road or noisy environment as it picks up all the sounds around you.

Overall Bose SoundSport Wireless is a decent headphone with great sound and clarity but lacks in battery life and noise cancellation.

I'll just add an update to this after using it for a few weeks.

Added some snaps for you guys.

Update 1:
Have been using this for almost a year now. No issues whatsoever.
Gives 6 hours of battery backup. I believe the quality issue that was previously mentioned by many of the users including my friend who had replaced it, has been fixed after a certain batch of earphones.

So far So good. Happy Shopping.

Update 2:
Update on my Bose SoundSport Wireless as I’m nearing to 2 years of use.
The audio quality is still the same with great sound and clarity. No complain on the battery backup as well.

Now as we get to the build quality, few weeks back the construction started falling apart. The button for powering the earphones fell out as the rubber holding it in place loosened.
The little silicone door on the charging port broke off as well. Thought the build quality has been fixed after a certain batch of earphones as I mentioned in the previous update. But No, still the same.

I'm really disappointed that they've started falling apart already, Especially since I take such good care of them as I have mentioned previously. I never used these for workouts or dropped water on them.

Attached few snaps of the earphones which is starting to fall apart completely.

Not even completed 2 years and the situation of my earphone is worse. Reducing one star for the poor build quality. Thought the build would last at least 3+ years considering the price and the makers of the earphone.
Disappointed with the build quality from a reputed brand like Bose.
