Review on 🎧 Bose SoundTrue Over-Ear Style Wired Headphones, White (Discontinued by Manufacturer) by Stephen Hobbs

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good headphones with a clear blemish. The ear pads are not durable.

Update: Headphones still work very well and sound very good over the last 5 years of use. However, the ear pads break and loosen bit by bit every day. Both pillows are now completely gone. I can't believe Bose would use such poor materials on expensive headphones. Fortunately, replacement pillows are now easy to find. Today I received my Bose headphones which I bought from Revain during the Black Friday sale. My white Bose headphones also have a red patch on the left side of the headband as many reviewers have said. It seems like some numbers are smeared, but not completely, and it's there all the time. I like the headphones but it sucks as I bought them 'new' from Revain. I can't believe Bose would sell their product with an obvious blemish. The sound in the headphones is very clear and pleasant. I have a couple of Beats Studios and they have a lot of deep and heavy bass. The Bose SoundTrue differs in that it doesn't strain the bass and gives the singer cleaner vocals and better highs and mids all around. These headphones are very comfortable, and they're certainly more comfortable than the Beats Studios, but the Bose ones don't look as cool as the Beats. I would really like these headphones if it wasn't for the red spot because the headphones sound good and are very comfortable for the price I paid. I do not know what to do. I'm still wondering if it's worth returning.

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Some issues
