    Great Noise Cancelling Earbuds

    What can I say about these? Bose does it again with quality. These are extremely well made earbuds; very sleek and sturdy. Like what comes to be expected with Bose, the sound quality. Bose delivers again with that - the noise cancelling feature is amazing and the sound quality is superior. I've used them for listening to music and for several phone calls and they are my favorite by far. The only con that I can think about is that, well they are very well made, they seem a bit bulky/heavy-weighted for ear buds. I had difficulty keeping them in my ear if I moved around much, something that made me very cautious about wearing there anyway outside of the house. It could be my ears but I couldn't get them to stay in whenever I walked around. It was kind of a bummer for me because I was really hoping that I would be able to use them while working out. Overall, they are absolutely great and well worth the money.

    Great sounding earbuds that actually stay in my ears while working out. The noise canceling is top notch. If you are thinking about purchasing these and are in the fence….take the leap….well worth the money.

      Hi.
      Thank you for posting. Sorry to hear that you find the QC earbuds uncomfortable. Every surface that touches your ear is made of soft silicone — not hard plastic. An umbrella-shaped nozzle spreads pressure evenly across your ear for comfort, stability, and passive noise blocking. Please refer to this page on how to wear and adjust it. https://bose.life/3TmB30w. If you have questions in the future, reach out to us here. https://bose.life/3BzXXfd. We would love to help.
