The SoundSport Free are a jack of all trades. They supply a great fit but have a bulky look; they get loud but don't reproduce thumping bass, and they pair quickly but struggle with stability. As far as true wireless are concerned, they're one of the bes...
Abstract: With so many flagship phones leaving behind the headphone jack over the past two years, the need for a good pair of Bluetooth earbuds has only intensified. While the first crop of true wireless products had their share of comfort and connection problems...
Good luck finding truly wireless earbuds that sound better than these you won't, I found the signal very reliable and strong. I had no drops or issues getting the earbuds to pair, These are even more comfortable than the standard SoundSport Wireless, I ba
$250. That is not an easy sell, These aren't exactly subtle. I get Bluetooth earpiece flashbacks whenever I wear them, Bose says 5 hours, I found 3.54 hours more realistic, Like the SoundSport Wireless, the Free have absolutely terrible, nighunusable memb
Truly wireless earbuds are the future of personal audio, and I'm comfortable saying Bose's take on the concept is the best I've used yet - that critical A/V sync issue aside. Yes, they're a bit. obvious, but they sound pretty damn good.$250 good? That's...
Forwardsounding bass, excellent balance of mids and highs, Outstanding Bluetooth connectivity, IPX4 weather resistance, Provide good situational awareness for runners, 15 hours total battery life, charging case battery included
Expensive, Larger than most hardware in its class, Designed to allow outside sound in—may not appeal to all listeners
At $249, the Bose SoundSport Free are expensive: you can find a number of competent true wireless headsets for significantly less. But with their nearly unflappable Bluetooth reception, water resistance, easy-to-use controls, and brilliant sound, we feel...

One of the best-sounding wireless headphones yet, Well-designed charging base, Tips and jacket are one piece, making it hard to lose tips, Comfortable to wear and stay in place during exercise routines
Relatively large buds stick out of ears, Noise isolation is lacking for noisy environments like a gym, Expensive compared to competition
The Bose SoundSport Free earphones were a bit of a surprise on many levels during my testing. The first thing that struck me and will likely strike you is when you open the package, these buds are relatively large.However, equally surprising was how comfo...
The bass-forward Bose SoundSport Free earphones are expensive, but nail the design and operational details better than any other pair in the growing wire-free category...
Open earphone approach means you can hear the world, Fantastic sound, and about the best we've heard from a fitness earphone, A smidgen of water resistance, Battery case has your battery life in LEDs
Could be more water resistant, The biggest case for a small pair of earphones, making them harder to carry, Case battery feels like it loses charge all too easily, Strange design that can be dislodged from your ears all too easily
After spending as much time with the Bose SoundSport Free wireless earphones, it's hard to say whether the earphones are a total success.On the one hand, the SoundSport Free deliver some of the best sound you're likely to hear in a pair of fitness-focused...
