Mrs Gemma Slater –
The sound quality is top notch, probably one of the best sets of wireless headphones that I have used. Had the beats wired headphone for my gym but it didn’t last long. After 2-3 months it didn’t work so had to replaced it.5 hrs battery life is good but it could have done better.It lagged when I was using this to watch YouTube videos on ipad.But it didn’t matter to me because the main reason I bought this was for my workout. And it turn out to be great.

Having just purchased 2 sets of earbuds over the past couple of weeks from ClickElectronics, I was sold by the hype of these Bose SoundSport Free buds and, as I already have a number of Bose products including SoundWave digital DAB radio/CD, home cinema system, QC20 earphones and car system, I thought these will be much better than the SoundPeats and Enacfire earbuds I have just purchased.At more than 4 times the price of the other earbuds I purchased, these Bose Soundsport Free should be the biz…The packaging itself would save at least 20% off the price if Bose cared about such things however as exclusivity is their goal, price is not a priority.The earbuds themselves are great, they fit nicely without coming loose and were fully charged and working straight out the box.Bose would have you download and use their Connect app which includes user manual and apparently you can update the software on your buds plus you can find your buds if you (are careless enough to) lose one or both in your home.Enjoying the deep rich base I decided to compare with the Soundpeats Truengine which cost less than £40 against the £155 I paid for these Bose buds, the Soundpeats stacked up well and there really is very little in it hence my score on sound quality vs price. In other words, you are not getting much more bang for your buck by spending so much more on these.That said, they do sound good and I am enjoying using them. I would be just as happy to carry the SoundPeats with me in their tiny case as opposed to the bulkiness of these Bose buds.The volume controls are really stiff and need a bit of force, apparently, according to online reviews I watched before buying, this is a known issue. Also the volume is restricted so they wont go really loud – Ill thank them when Im 70 and can hear my grandkids !Tried making a couple of calls to my voicemail to check both the hearing and spoken quality of these buds and I compared them with the SoundPeats. The mobile phone Im using is an iPhone XS, if you want to know what sort of equipment Im using. The result was quite good actually, listening to my outgoing message on my answerphone wearing the Bose buds sounds quite muffled but when I played back the message I had left for myself it was crystal clear. Whereas with the SoundPeats it was the reverse.Wearing them now. Enjoying the sound but can just as easily be wearing the SoundPeats. One big difference – these are more comfy!1 week into owning these buds I found the controls stop responding.Sometimes it might be the skip to next track buttons not working (a double press) or another time it will be pause not working and so on…The workaround is to reset to factory settings & start over. But when youve had to do this a few times in a week it is not so great anymore.I have to say, the buds I purchased at a fraction of the price did not have any issues at all!!Spoke to Austin in Bose Tech Support (no longer in UK), Austin was keen to tell me he also owned the same earbuds. He even had the same iPhone. Austin says his never do that. Austin went on to helpfully tell me these earbuds are supposed to work with iPhone – oddly that might have been a reason I bought them.I found Austins banter to be really useful for checking the call quality but sadly Austin was of little use to me and certainly had no idea how to resolve the problem so I ended the call before we moved on to his pets.I didnt need somebody to sell me what I already bought – I needed a solution and Austin didnt have one and neither apparently does Bose!If this continues its back for a refund and try the Beats Powerbeats Pro that cost a bit more but apparently are worth it.
