I have used Bose SoundSport earbuds (corded) for my workouts for years. Like most, I wanted to cut the cord for convenience during my daily workouts. Since Bose had no cordless sports earbuds, I purchased the PowerBeats. I HATE them!! The sound is subpar to my corded SoundSport. The PowerBeats are NOT comfortable. The don’t feel secure. To hear my music with any reasonable quality, I would have to hold them in my ears. After a few workouts, the PowerBeats starting gathering dust in my drawer.
I saw these wireless SoundSports by Bose and ordered them immediately, hoping Bose would not let me down. I opened the box and the quality is apparent. I paired them with my iPhone and WOW!!! Sound quality is awesome! Blows the PowerBeats away - NO CONTEST. Very comfortable and feel very secure. I used them for my workout and these are like putting on my favorite pair of blue jeans! I have used these every day for a week and after 6 hours of total workout time, I still have 50% of the battery charge (a voice tells you how much battery remains when you turn them on.) Thank you Bose!!! I find I have actually been more motivated to workout since I have purchased these.
The earbuds come with a cute round case, a very short micro USB charger, and 3 different size silicone ear pieces. Pairing is seamless and the app is ok. Admittently, I don’t really love them for phone calls because the volume seems low, but I didn’t purchase them for talking on the phone. I ordered the add-on charging case for $50 from Bose. It looks like a more protective case than the included case, which is important as I want these earbuds to last me a LONG time! Case gets a full charge in 2 hours and extends the charge on the SoundSport for 18 hours. I’ll post a review once I receive it.
These wireless Bose SoundSport earbuds are a GAMECHANGER! I gave away the PowerBeats.

Well Designed Bluetooth Headphones
I am rating this Bose product at 3.5 out of 5 stars.These Bose SoundSport wireless earphones are comfortable in the ears and can be worn for many hours in a row with little to no ear discomfort.The battery only lasts for around 5 hours, depending on overall listening volume, but the charging time is fairly quick, and these headphones have good quality sound that you would expect from a Bose product.Both the left and right headphone are easy to hold and almost seem like they were designed to have small handles on each headphone, making each headphone easy to grab and place into the ear.The Bluetooth pairing process is quite quick with these Bose SoundSport headphones, once the headphones have been paired with a device, they connect quickly after being turned on.There is a micro USB cable provided, but no USB charging adapter, that was kind of unexpected, a USB charging adapter would have been a really nice addition.These headphones were designed to wrap around the back of the neck area, but I found that allowing the cord to dangle down in front of the shirt area, is another way to wear the headphones, which allows the microphone to points closer to the mouth and picks up sound better.There is a silicone flap that is covering the micro USB port on the right under side of the Bose SoundSport headphone, once the silicone flap is pulled out, it cannot be turned to the side very far, which makes plugging in the micro USB cable slightly challenging. The silicone cover should have been designed to swivel 180 degrees once it is pulled out, so that it is completely out of the way of the charging port. (I am deducting 1/2 star for this charging port cover issue.)When reviewing a product, and deciding upon an overall rating score, I figure in the selling price of a product, this is the value factor, having said that, there is not much to these Bluetooth headphones, and so I feel as if the selling price should reflect that.Having a beginning selling price of $149.95, I feel as if this is too much for a product that is so tiny, and I am removing 1 star for this reason, if the beginning selling price was $99, then I would have given this Bose product a 4.5 star rating.Considering that the build quality and design of these Bose SoundSport headphones is almost certainly better than the current market competition, I guess that makes up a bit for the slightly high selling price.If you are looking for a comfortable and good sounding pair of Bluetooth headphones made by Bose, then the SoundSport wireless headphones might be a good choice for you.
