🎧 Bose AE2i Audio Headphones, Black: Immersive Sound Experience Review

On your daily commute, between the squeak of a train and the squeak of school kids, it can get pretty loud. I wanted good headphones to watch movies on the train but I don't need noise canceling headphones as they require extra batteries. I'm not into hardcore music so I was hesitant to spend that much on headphones but after being convinced of the quality of Bose I decided to give it a try considering how many headphones I've tried. ears) AE2i version compatible with smartphone with volume…

Before I start, let me make it clear that I'm not an audiophile, I'm not an expert. I'm a regular music lover and only use these headphones 1-2 hours a day. With that in mind, I would say that I am very happy with these headphones. When researching headsets, I considered between on-ear and around-the-ear options, but ultimately settled on these as I didn't want the audio to leak out of the original version. I was expecting better quality as this is a Bose and I was not disappointed. The sound…

I've never owned a pair of "high end" headphones but with others I've tried (including Beats by Dre) they just fly out the water. The sound is amazing, the bass is nice and deep and the highs are so clear. The noise cancellation is amazing. I use them when I'm on a noisy school bus full of nasty little kids and make them disappear. While the noise cancellation is excellent, it doesn't eliminate all noise by any means, you'll still hear a faint hiss but once you start playing music you forget…

The headphones are very comfortable, the first time I put them on I was completely shocked, it feels like they are not there and my head is quite massive . Now for the sound, Bose is known for its quality and purity and that's exactly what these headphones have. These headphones were definitely more lively to listen to than my $70 Sennheisers, but surprisingly not much better. If you are on a budget I would definitely go with the Sennheiser as they literally offer almost the same performance…

These are my first over-ear headphones in this price range and I love them. These sound really great. Now I can hear more details (which I missed in my headphones) in each song. Before settling on the Bose AE2, I tried the Bose OE2, the Beats Solo, some Sony models in this price range and the Skullcandy Aviator at a local store. The Skullcandy Aviator was close, but I found the Bose more comfortable to wear. To me, the OE2 "sounded" better, but was more comfortable around the ear. What I liked:

These headphones are very comfortable, when I first put them on I was completely shocked, it feels like they aren't even there and my head is pretty massive. Now sound, Bose is known for its quality and purity, and that's exactly what these headphones have. These headphones were definitely livelier to listen to than my $70 Sennheisers, but surprisingly not much better. If you are on a budget I would definitely go with the Sennheiser as they literally offer almost the same performance for half…

Bose I excluded from the start. I like their products but I think they are overpriced. I ended up finding this $25 cheaper than usual at Revain and bought it. I love her. I wish they came with a hard case; Expect to buy something if you want to protect them in a computer bag or something. They are a fragile little bag that just keeps the cord from getting tangled in your bag. I've searched for in-ear headphones, so they don't show up in all of my searches. For headphones, you'll see OE for…
