Reddit mentions of Bose SoundSport, Wireless Earbuds, (Sweatproof Bluetooth Headphones for Running and Sports), Black

Have you ever tried this style? cos I can't wear normal ear buds either - they're all too big and very painful - but these ones barely go down the ear at all and they work just fine, on the smallest tips.

I agree and I don't even go as fancy as you with my earphones. I have this $90 pair of wired earphones and they sound fantastic to me, yet they're cheap enough that I won't be too sad if I lose or break them. I tried this $150 pair of Bose wireless buds, some of the more expensive widely available wireless ones; and I ended up returning them because sound quality was noticeably worse than my 1mores, the fit was crap, and the mic was so poor-quality as to be absolutely useless.

People tell me i'm insane, but I would suggest no music. Focus on your breathing and listen to your body.

Buttttt if you are, i'm a big fan of these Bose SoundSport Wireless Headphones - https://www.amazon.com/Bose-SoundSport-Wireless-Headphones-761529-0010/dp/B01L7PSJFO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1539383520&sr=8-3&keywords=bose+wireless+earphones#

Yes both models, only difference is that the Bose Soundsport Free has no chords therefore it is truly wireless (like AirPods) and the regular
Bose Soundsport Wireless has a little chord from left piece to right piece but is also wireless.


And to answer your other question: yes I have tried foam tips, but in my opinion those are better for complete isolation like on musical recording environment or for critical listening with IEMs! Also I don’t know any sport headphones that come with foam tips since foam gets wet and little bits may fall from the material.

True, but it's not worth the $160 price tag apple gives it.

If I were spending that much I'd get this

https://www.amazon.com/Bose-761529-0010-SoundSport-Wireless-Headphones/dp/B01L7PSJFO/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1481677594&sr=1-1&keywords=bose+soundsport+wireless

I put mine in my waistband usually. If you leave your headphones in the locker the connection probablt won't reach the headphones.

 

I have these and the sound is great but they fall out of my ears sometimes which annoys the crap out of me so I bought these recently and prefer them. I may splurge for the Beats version eventually.

I am going to assume a wireless priority because cable gets in the way during workouts in my personal experience. Considering the sporty application, you'll want a pair of IEMs. As far as the bluetooth IEM market goes, active noise cancellation usually comes at a higher price point and are mostly found on TWS pieces. Most bluetooth IEM use passive noise cancellation and that is sufficient enough in my opinion. I have tried active noise cancellation on sporty wireless IEM (Case in point Jabra Elite Sport) and the results is rather eerie because the active noise cancellation is so good I end up being able to hear my own panting/heartbeat with no ambient noise. The recommendation I would give would be either the Bose Soundsport, Jabra's Coach series, Jaybird's X3, or Jaybird's freedom. The bose one sounds best imo if you don't mind the bulkier earpiece and extra weight. If you don't care much for the V-sound model, the other 3 on the list are all pretty neutral. The best part is that they are all under $150 USD.


Jabra also has the Pulse, which is similar to the Bose soundsport pulse if heart monitor and a fitness app is important to you.


If you are looking for a truly wireless sporty in ear headphone I would recommend Jabra's Sport Elite, but do be aware that like most other TWS they have a short battery life. From my personal experience the UI on the earpiece is a bit hard to use but you do get used to it eventually. The reason I recommend them is because they are the most secure in my ears during workouts, as compared to other TWS such as erato's apollo 7 (which does sound better imo). It's unfortunate apollo 7s fall out easily :(

Bose has the Soundsport but it's out of your budget. I would recommend those.

Then you have the Sony Sony MDR-XB50BS
The reviews for it are hit and miss.

I know you want a bluetooth headset but I personally feel that the best music headset for activities is as follows.

I'll give you more suggestions after a little research, if that's cool with you! :)

I have these Bose SoundSport Bluetooth headphones and love them. They come with 3 different sizes of ear bud pieces so you can find what fits best. Plus they can hang around your neck rather than risk losing the AirPods. My only complaint is the battery isn’t quite as long as I’d like but they charge fast.

Budget: Given that it's Black Friday, I'm thinking $100 to $130.

Source: iPhone 6s

Requirements for Isolation: I would say quite minimal as I will be using this on the streets of LA, London and on campus. I'm used to the isolation of standard Apple headphones.

Will you be using these Headphones in public? Yes

Preferred Type of Headphones: Bluetooth in ear. Not ear pods and not wired as I know I'll lose those small ear pods and the normal in ear headphones like the ones Apple sell are annoying as the wire always get tangled up. Was thinking something like BeatsX or preferably the Bose SoundSport Wireless https://www.amazon.com/Bose-SoundSport-Wireless-Headphones-Black/dp/B01L7PSJFO/

Preferred tonal balance: I'm sorry, but I'm a rookie when it comes to this. What I would like when listening to, hear the lyrics properly and clearly, while also making out what the beat is and hear it. Would also like something on the loud side. Not too loud. A bit louder than Apple.

Past headphones: I've mentioned Apple headphones a lot, so that. I also had Beats2. http://www.tmt.my/onlinestore/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=6434

Preferred Music: Old school rap and new school hip hop mostly. Dre, Snoop, 50, Eminem, 2Pac, Kendrick, Kanye, Future, 21 Savage, Kodak Black,

What would you like to improve on from your set-up? Mainly get rid of those annoying wires, and better sound with clarity.

price history

I'm looking for a pair of bluetooth earphones for general use and use running/working out. My preference is in direct conflict with most peoples' advice: I like Bose. I tried the Bose SoundSport earbuds and was impressed. I want an alternative that is cheaper and/or better so I can do a comparison.

Budget: <$150

Source: Phone, (LG G3) and Laptop

Isolation: None required, some preferred.

Preferred type: In-ear, silicone earpiece, sport, Bluetooth

Tonal Balance: Slightly bass heavy

Past Headphones: Bose QC15 for comfortable, leisurely listening. Bose Earbuds for portable listening/working out, Sony Extra Bass earbuds for portable listening/working out.

Preferred Music: Alt, Alt-Rock, Indie, Rap, some Pop. Honestly, most music.

What would I like to improve: The bluetooth aspect is important. I'm going to be using a smartwatch for music while running, so anything corded won't work.

I tried the Bose SoundSport liked them, then saw that the Jaybird X3 is similarly priced (slightly cheaper, even). If the X3 is worth the wait, (2 week back order) I'll do it, but if they're not much better for the price I'll just order the SoundSports.

I think this is the same model as these earphones for $99 :

I'm looking at getting some Bose SoundSport Wireless Headphones (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01L7PSJFO/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_zWm7ybJ2P4BDJ)
Idk if I should get them because a few Bluetooth headphones I've used fall short. My main purpose would be for workouts at the gym but I love the noise cancellation of Skull Candy headphones, just hate how quick they give out. For anyone who has bought these, are they worth it? I think I'm just attracted to the Bose name since I own some Bose equipment (SoundLink Mini). Will they work for my desire purpose? Thanks to anyone who replies

Oh I was wondering what so special about the "pulse" thanks! I don't care at all about heartrate monitor.
Ahh I can't decide! The Jaybird is 20% off essentially today only because of prime day. However looking at the price itself it's only a $34 difference between Bose and Jaybird so I'm torn between the 2 since I don't care much for that difference. I don't care about bass but perhaps I might be interested in fuller audio
Bose Soundsport or Jaybird ahhh I can't decide!!!!!
Which one should I go with? I'm having trouble deciding :(

These ones don't look too bad...

Do you mean these?

Check out bose soundsport. I have the same problem with eatbuds not fitting or falling out. The design of bose makes it work for me.

I'm not sure if this is the right area to post this but I have a question that someone might be able to answer.
So I have a pair of these and I love them, they are seriously comfortable and I don't really notice that they are there. The problem is that one of the earbuds just recently stopped working so I need to get some new ones. I would like to go wireless this time and I found these ones in hopes to still get that comfort. Though on the part that goes in your ear (I have no idea what to call it) it protrudes out, unlike the ones that I had. Does anyone know if they are still as comfortable or if I can get some tips that would be similar to what I had? Maybe you have some other suggestions for wireless earbuds for around $150 or less?

I’d recommend the Peloton shoes and mat. The rest of the accessories are garbage

So, I'm hoping to pick up a pair of fairly premium workout bluetooth earbuds. (USA)

This is fairly targeted, but wondering if it's a good deal - I've previously had jaybirds and think they're ok, but not sure if I should hold out for the Bose ones maybe? Not sure if they'll go on sale though!

It's 20% back for amazon card holders (instead of the regular 5%), and the Jaybird X3 is right at $100, which would go down to $80 with the 20% back. Link below for all the 20% back items that are currently listed, as well as the headphone. According to CamelCamelCamel, these haven't gone below $99.99 before.

Feedback appreciated!

Jaybird X3


Bose Soundsport Wireless

These are bluetooth in-ear headphones that i've been using for quite a while and are brilliant. I sweat alot and have had no problem with them. Sound quality is great too.

I️ like Bose SoundSport Wireless Headphones, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01L7PSJFO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_d2Znz9UfOb9f3 . They’re pretty solid for working out.

So, I’m in the market to replace the JayBird X1s and upgrade to something with better sound quality; does anyone have any suggestions? I’ve read some reviews, and the following is a list of some Bluetooth earbuds that looked promising.

1.) Sennheiser HD1 Free Bluetooth Wireless Headphone

2.) Bose SoundSport Headphones

3.) B&O PLAY by Bang & Olufsen Beoplay 5

4.) Shure SE215-K-BT1 Wireless Sound Isolating Earphones

5.) V-MODA Forza Metallo Wireless In-Ear Headphones

6.) RHA MA750 Wireless Noise Isolating Bluetooth In-Ear Headphones

7.) NuForce Optoma BE6i Wireless Headphones

8.) Jaybird Freedom F5 Wireless In-Ear Headphones

9.) BeatsX Wireless In-Ear Headphones

I totally understand that seeking good sound quality in a pair of Bluetooth headphones is kind of an oxymoron, but I need something portable for when I’m on the go, and my good Final Audio ones are too nice to exercise with. I would greatly appreciate any advice as to what to get. Thanks!

I'm currently in an email conversation with a guy 20 minutes away about buying a Hauppauge HD PVR 2 Gaming Edition Capture Device(not headphones, but bear with me).

I'm selling my Audio Technica ATH-M30X's for $60, almost brand new. He told me he wanted $60 for the device, or $40 plus the headphone. Nope. I'd be losing out big time on those.

So then he said Ok to the $60 for the device, but then offered me $130 Bose Earbuds, presumable these ones for the headphones.

So yeah, they are twice as much, but I'm not sure I want earbuds, and I don't even know the condition. Should I be wary of this trade?

Essentially I can go with

Option A) Buy the PVR for $60(which is $90 less than brand new) and be done with it, OR

Option B) Trade $60 and my M30X's for the PVR and the Bose Earbuds.

I don't understand why he won't do my $60 headphones for his $60 PVR. I can't seem to talk him down to less than $30+ the M30X's.
