Review on Bose SoundSport Free: Midnight Blue/Citron Wireless Earbuds for Workouts and Sports by Mike Larkin

I had my sound port free for about 2 weeks. I wanted to express myself from my point of view on the topics addressed and what is important to me. I also have a Jaybird X3 for training; Apple AirPods; Bose Quietcomfort 20 wired noise cancellation for air travel and the office; and a QC-25 with wired noise cancellation for flying (used before I bought the QC 20). Left ear muting – this happens when there is electronic interference; walls/floors with certain materials between you and the Bluetooth source; too much distance between you and the Bluetooth source; or sometimes outdoors when there aren't enough reflective surfaces to reflect the Bluetooth signal back to the headphones. I tested the SSF against AirPods and X3 under the same and different conditions. SSF works just like AirPods. X3 is worse. ALL Bluetooth headphones turn off under certain conditions. SSF is no worse than the rest. I agree with this clipping issue given my use cases and got used to it from other sources. Video syncing is only an issue for me when browsing Youtube on iPhone 7+ or iPhone X. Other video sources have no sync problems. AirPods can sync better. It is no problem for me. noise reduction. As far as I know, there are NO noise canceling Bluetooth headphones. For proper noise cancellation you need a signal processing module, which is located in the external controller on the QC20 and in the ear cups on the QC 25. There are Bluetooth noise canceling banks out there, but I haven't found any that offer good noise cancellation and great music quality. For example, the Bose Bluetooth QC35's music quality is worse than the wired QC25, while the Sennheiser Momentum has good music quality but poor noise cancellation. out of my ears and useless for development. My QC20s are a little more comfortable for extended use. The X3 and AirPods are also more comfortable with prolonged use, but not by much. As for size and looks, it's not that important to me. I think they look cool and better than AirPods, but that's a very subjective thing. Call quality and calls using only the right earbud - I find the call quality, microphone and listening experience to be better than AirPods and I use SSF for about an hour of calls per day. Since I don't have calls from both earbuds, I usually only use 1 AirPod during calls as I find it better for mental processing. Same with SSF, but you're limited to right, not right or left. I like to switch between ears, so this is a small minus. Music quality - far superior to all other bluetooth headphones, rivals my wired QC20 headphones and better than my QC25 cans. I only listen to songs on Spotify that have been downloaded to my phone at the maximum bitrate. That's why I use headphones and just can't stand poor music quality for a long time. SSF are great for this reason and they get 4 stars for this reason. Nothing else compares to the shape of a wireless headphone. 14.11. Upgrade to 2 stars: The Bluetooth connection problem (e.g. left earbud disconnecting frequently) is more annoying now. Called Bose support. They said their engineers are working to fix this issue and the video sync issue (which I can live with). However, they were unable to extend my 30 day free return period until a fix was delivered. So today I'm returning Revain buds. I would recommend new customers to wait for this patch to be released as we do not know if this patch can be applied to the first generation hardware currently on sale or if a hardware modification is required.
