Review on Bose SoundSport Truly Wireless Headphones by Kayla Miller

Revainrating 1 out of 5

No question, fantastic!

Updated March 27, 2019: I'm deducting 2 stars from my original rating because I too am now experiencing constant dripping between the two earbuds. When I first got them I had no problems, but now if I walk around with it for about an hour every morning I get 20-30 drops or snips from the left earcup. It's very annoying and I can't imagine any of you would like it either. I am also currently updated with the latest software. Unfortunately, Bose has problems with that. First Review: One thing is for sure, opinions differ on true wireless earbuds. Best advice is to try them for yourself and use reviews like this as subjective information to help you choose specific bumps, rather than as a reason to buy or not to buy. I type that when listening to the blue version and they are just amazing. They paired seamlessly with my Note 9 and in a week of using them I didn't have a single power outage or crash. I did an initial software update when they were first activated. I personally find the soundstage and bass response exceptional overall. I bought them and a B&O E8 and for my main purposes - training and outdoor use - they are perfect. The E8 had slightly better bass, but at the expense of mid-range detail, and I like the overall sound better with the Bose. It is very important to understand that this is not an airtight fit, meaning if I stop my music at a moderate volume, I can still hear the TV playing "Christmas Holidays" :) so anyone with a tight , noise-blocking airtight seat expected, does not live up to expectations. this expectation. They have ear tips on the wing tips which I really like, they are so comfortable and secure in the ears. I want them to let noise through so I can hear my surroundings at the gym and especially when walking/running on the street. The E8 has a more airtight, noise-isolating fit, but there are no wings to hold them in place (they fell out a couple of times), so it's not what I need for workout headphones. I also recommend trying the included earbuds. I used the medium size for the first 3 days and felt too much pressure for a long time. I switched to the small ones and the comfort has improved a lot. I can't recommend them enough for sports and outdoor activities, they are that good. I wouldn't wear them with formal or formal attire, they definitely look sporty and stick out further from the ears than the E8. 2 thumbs up from me and hope this helps!
