Q: do these headphones work with TV or just iPhone, iPad

A: I'm sure you've already found your answer by now, but I wanted to make sure this stone didn't go unturned. The Bose AE2W Headphones will work with any Bluetooth enabled device. However, your TV's Bluetooth is generally designed for keyboards and other devices that are not dependent on timing. The result being that you may experience some lag between the action on screen and the action in your ear.

Q: Is there an airplane mode for the AE2w if you want to listen to music on an IPad Also is there a jack lead to plug it into the aircraft system

A: When not used wirelessly our AE2w headphones can disable use of the Bluetooth feature by powering them off. We include a standard 3.5mm connection audio cable with them that should fit most airplane jacks. We do not include an adapter for other types of connections, but these can be purchased at many retailers. Thank you.

Q: I have a galaxy S3 will it connect to to my bluetooth / I plan on upgrading to the S4 what about it.

A: Yes! This headset will work with any phone, tablet, or other mobile device which supports audio over bluetooth! This includes all current Samsung Galaxy phones.

Q: Can the bose bluetooth wireless headphones work with a Kindle Fire HD?

A: Hi, thanks for your question! The Kindle Fire HD supports the A2DP Bluetooth profile, therefore it is compatible with our AE2w headphones. Thank you.

Q: Are these also noise-canceling, or just Bluetooth regular headphones?

A: The SoundLink Around Ear headphones do not have active noise canceling features. Those are found only on our Quiet Comfort Line of headphones. Thanks for your Question.

Q: Is the lithium ion battery user replaceable?

A: The rechargeable battery is located within the Bluetooth module. The Bluetooth module is detachable from the headset and is replaceable (the headset can also be used with a connected cable). The battery itself is not user serviceable. For further information regarding service options, please contact our technical support team who can assist. They can be reached at 1-800-380-4831 and are available 8:30am-10:00pm M-F, 9am-7:00pm Sat EST. Thank you.
