9 best bose in ear headphones

Product description

Bose Sport Earbuds are designed to energize your exercise with acclaimed lifelike sound and a comfortable secure fit. Get ready to beat your personal best, again and again.

Bose patented acoustic port design and premium, high-efficiency drivers combine to deliver big sound from a small acoustic package. Bose signature Volume-Optimized Active EQ automatically adjusts the bass, midrange, and treble based on how loud or soft you play your music. And Bose new StayHear Max tips create an airtight seal with your ear canal — critical for hearing the deep low notes that add impact and emotion to your music and for blocking the ambient noise around you so you can focus on your music and your workout.

Bose Sport Earbuds come with three sizes of StayHear Max tips, so you can find the right fit for you. Every surface that touches your ear is made of soft silicone. Meanwhile, the unique umbrella-shaped tip and the extended flexible wing keep your Bose Sport Earbuds securely in place — without need of an ear hook — no matter how much you shake your head or jump up and down.

Bose Sport Earbuds go through rigorous quality testing for durability. They’re also rated IPX4 for water resistance, which means they’re protected against sweat and light rain. The electronics inside are wrapped in special materials that protect them from moisture, so your earbuds stay in top shape, just like you.

Bose Sport Earbuds feature a capacitive touch interface. On the right Earbud, tap to play or pause music and to answer calls. And on the left Earbud, double-tap to engage a Shortcut function of your choice like checking your battery level. If you get a phone call, instead of interrupting your workout, simply tap the right Earbud or press and hold it to reject. If you answer, you’ll hear the call clearly in both ears. Meanwhile, your caller will hear you clearly, too — thanks to the beamforming microphone array that separates your voice from surrounding noise.

Bose Sport Earbuds provide up to 5 hours of battery life per charge. They’re charged by placing them in the included charging case. If the case is charged, it will automatically charge the earbuds. The status lights on each Earbud will pulse white, while they charge before turning solid white and then off when fully charged. When the case is fully charged, it can provide a 15-minute quick charge for up to 2 more hours or two full charges for up to 10 more hours.

Bose Sport Earbuds offer complete freedom of movement. As long as you’re within 30 feet (9 meters) of your device, you’ll hear whatever you’re playing. And with Bose custom-designed antennas hidden inside each Earbud, dropouts are rare.

Bose Sport Earbuds connect to the free Bose Music app, which lets you name your earbuds, set the controls the way you like them, check your battery, and more.

• Wireless Bluetooth earbuds engineered by Bose for your best workout yet.
• Bose lifelike sound — Makes your music sound like the performer is right there beside you, pushing you to go 1 more mile or do 1 more rep.
• Secure and comfortable earbuds — Customize your fit with the included 3 sizes of StayHear Max tips that won’t hurt your ears and won’t fall out no matter tough your workout is.
• Weather and sweat resistant earbuds — IPX4 rated, with electronics wrapped in special materials to protect from moisture wherever you exercise
• Clear calls — A beamforming microphone array separates your voice from surrounding noise so your callers can hear you better.
• Simple touch controls — Instead of buttons, the capacitive touch interface lets you swipe up and down for volume control (opt in feature via Bose Music App), tap to play or pause music, answer calls, and more
• Long battery life— Up to 5 hours per charge with the included charging case, plus up to 2 more hours with a 15-minute quick charge on the go.

User questions & answers

Question:	If I take this product on an international trip, can it be charged (using an appropriate adapter) with a 240 volt outlet
Answer:	You can charge these headphones using any standard USB charger regardless of the voltage, they are compatible with outlets 100-240 V.
Question:	Do they work even when the battery is depleted
Answer:	Hi there,The QuietComfort 20 headset does work when the battery is depleted. Thanks for the question!
Question:	Do these make that stethoscope sound when you hit the wires? I know the over ear ones don't
Answer:	They do. Not as much as some other in-ears I have tried, but for example more than the Bose SoundSport in ears that I have. I still prefer them to the over ear QC15/25 because they are so compact and I can sleep with them in a plane. The over ear ones will transmit sound if you lean on them when trying to sleep in a plane. I find the "stethoscope sound" to not be an issue in everyday use.
Question:	Whats the difference between these and the QC 20i's? It says these are newer but doesn't show any changes from the previous model
Answer:	I had recently written to Bose asking what the difference was between these QC 20i's and the prior model. This was their response:Thank you for contacting us about the QuietComfort 20i headphones.I can help you with these questions.1. As a research based company, Bose is constantly working on improving our products. These including better audio quality and noise cancellation, and more robust cables.The "original" QuietComfort 20i headphones are black and white.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this the new version that was to be launched in August 2016? If not, when is the new version being released for retail
Answer:	yes. This is the newest version released in August, 2016.
Question:	How do these fit, compared to the wired version with slightly different tips? Are they wedged into your ear canal, like most other in-ear designs
Answer:	I have an earlier Bose version, where the ear phone is mounted on a very sophisticated ear bud that seats perfectly in the antihelix of the pinna (outer ear), thereby gently resting in the ear canal itself. That is a MAJOR design advantage, not only in comfort, but also in safety, in that by avoiding pressure against the skin of the ear canal, the chance for discomfort / infection / inflammation is vastly reduced. There is nothing else like the old design on the market. I would only purchase the new model with the assurance that it faithfully incorporated the revolutionary advantages of the 4 older models I have purchased and given as gifts.
Question:	Just how water/sweat resistant are they in use
Answer:	I've had these 7 months and have LOVED them. But... I just ran a little over 2 hrs in constant light drizzle and they stopped working a little over halfway through. I thought they were dead... but ever hopeful I let them dry thoroughly then plugged them in to charge. About 15 min later I was able to turn them on and it talked to me as usual... "battery 40%, connected to..." I left them charging but when I came back to check on progress an hour or so later, all lights were out and I can't turn it on. Will see if Bose will replace. Bottom line: great in dry weather, very sketchy when damp or wet!
Question:	When you are on a phone call, can the caller hear a noisy environment? i.e. People talking in the background, tv, radio, etc
Answer:	I've been told time and time again that callers can hear everything in the background, these are my workout headphones though which they are amazing for. I use Plantronics for business calls.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where it’s made? What country
Answer:	Nearly all Bose products are designed in Massachusetts. Production is in South Carolina or Mexico for US sales.
Question:	Can you use just the right ear bud without the left
Answer:	Yes. Whether you want to or not. The left frequently cuts out on you. If you love listening to your music out of just one ear bud with asecond delay between audio and video, these are the head phones for you. If you expect your $249 head phones to have the minimum functions of a $10 pair of Dollar General headphones, move on. The headphones are purely for elitist looking for the name Bose without a care for actual performance.
Question:	do they have a microphone
Answer:	To answer the question, yes there is a microphone. To give better context to the quality of it I'll say that, as a truck driver who has used many different headsets and earbuds, these have been the best. Most others have been unusable while driving but these have been noted by those I've talked to on the phone to be very clear. The only complaint I have is their wind noise reduction is non-existent and they're basically unusable in environments that have unexpected noises. So it would seem their ability to cancel out droning is top notch, but inconsistent noises throw them for a loop.
Question:	Will they work in Australia
Answer:	No, you have to get a pair of AC/DC's. Those will work better in Australia.

User questions & answers

Question:	Stupid question may-be: does 20i work with non-apple products? e.g. Thinkpads...entertainment system on plane, etc
Answer:	The 20i is specifically keyed to iOS devices. On iOS devices it can control volume and stop/start and forward and back track. They work fine with the entertainment system on Delta. As to other devices. I believe you can hear just fine, but think the volume must be controlled on the device: think pad, etc; rather than the buttons on the cord. If your main device is not iPad or iPhone get the 20, not the 20i
Question:	I had the QC3 and they caused some sort of pressure pain ,do those have the same effect
Answer:	If you are speaking of pressure inside the ear then yes, there is some pressure from the noise cancelling. I have not found it painful though.
Question:	Do these headphones block out snoring
Answer:	I was able to check this out this morning as my wife was snoring due to cold/flu. With the aware option on, you'll hear white noise and full blown snoring. Tune off the aware the normal deep breathing sound are masked completely and in my estimation the snoring goes from 10 on a 10 scale to a 1. You'll still hear a tiny bit but I really had to listen closely to distinguish the snoring from the white noise.
Question:	Can sb directly compare the BOSE 20i with the Phiaton 210 BTNC
Answer:	I have the Phiaton 210BTNC, as well the Audio-Technica ATH-ANC23BK and AKG K390NC. The Bose 20i are the best without question. I have since purchased the Bose, used them on a few overseas flights. The Bose 20i are remarkable and by far the best and most comfortable. The Audio-Technicas were the closest, and for roughly $50 on Amazon have the best price/performance point. the Phaitons are the worst of the lot - their advantage being the BT capability, and their issue is that the sound cancellation is poor and the battery pack is quite short. I have had the Audio-Technicas for 4 years now and they still perform great. I travel intercontinental at least every month, sometimes more. What I have learned is that the over-the-ears will provide the best sound isolation, but will not be comfortable to sleep in, and will fatigue after a while. I prefer the comfort and ease of the in-ear with foam tips from Comply to get the best isolation and sound deadening. The short cord is more a benefit than a disadvantage. If the battery pack was further up the cord, it would dangle from your ears ... uncomfortable at best. The headset will be connected to a phone or a sound device, and having the battery pack close is not worse than the weight of the phone/player. I find that most people who rate sound quality do it at ground level. Unfortunately, with the sounds and pressure at high altitude, the sound quality changes. You are not going to get hi performance sound from any set. As such, sound cancelation and ease of use are most important if you are going to use them for flying ... and that will depend on how you travel.Ultimately, the Phiaton 210 BT do not compare at all to the Bose, nor the Audio Technicas. If you want best sound cancelling, go with the Bose. If you want great sound cancellation at a low price, then the Audio Technicas. If you want moderate sound cancellation with freedom of BT, then the Phiaton. In the end, I wish I could trade-in the Phiatons.I have now traveled overseas with the Bose twice. They are by far the best of the four. They are extremely comfortable and are incredibly quiet.
