Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the SoundSport Free True Wireless Headphones for their excellent sound quality, comfortable fit, and long battery life. The charging case is also well-received for its convenience. However, some users have experienced connectivity issues, find the design to be bulky, and feel that the price is not justified by the product's performance.

    These headphones have everything - excellent sound quality, very long battery life (compared to other similar products), sweat resistance, comfort, and style. I tried AirPods right before these and found the Sound Sport Free to be much more comfortable and to have significantly better sound all while fitting any ear type.

    Used multiple headphones and earbuds over the years and aside from my Bose noise cancelling headphones, these are the best. Great clear highs, good bass and surprising good noise reduction. The fit is perfect and can be adjusted using the additional bud tips. Charge lasts more than a day and charges quickly.

    A little finicky at times

    Directions are easy to read but sometimes that doesn’t translate well to the earbuds. I still don’t know how to “turn them off” as I can’t understsnd if I’m doing it right. Trust me, I’m 32 with lots of electronics so it’s not like I don’t know how to use. They are also finicky. I was cutting grass and they would just stop and I would have to re-sync them every 5 minutes. I don’t know if they were low in battery or what but I took them off and went with my Bose soundsport ones that I like a lot too. The Bose connect app that you can use (but don’t have to) is choppy and needs better improvement. Otherwise they work great the other times and the little charging/carrying case is nice and compact. Bose hands down for the money sound way better than beats. I have Bose, Beats, Sony and others and Beats have been the worst buy for the money.

    Lots of Bass... Check. Noise canceling... Check. Comfortable... Check. Good battery life... Check. Only con I would have is that they are pretty heavy and bulky but with the sound quality they offer it is definitely a compromise I am willing to take. You get used to them pretty fast.

    The sound quality is fantastic! The charging case is convenient and compact. They stay charged longer when you use it. The only thing that I do not like about my Bose wireless soundsport is that they stick out so far from your ear.

    The sound of these in-ear headphones is amazing! Deep, rich sound with deep bass and crisp highs. The shark fin on the earpiece really helps these stay in my ear well. I would definitely recommend these to music lovers that want to experience music as it is intended.

    These Bose earbuds do not disappoint. The definitely give the best sound of any earbud out there. They are large though, that's the only negative. They stay in during exercise, call quality is very good. The rechargeable case is excellent. All around the best buds out there.

    I love the way these sound . Bose always makes the best stuff. I listen to these all day long at work. I'm a welder and these fit right under my helmet. They sound great. And I don't have any wires hanging anymore, when I get a phone call I can answer it. They charge up real quick too. I hope they last a long time.

    I returned a pair of earbuds that were unimpressive and $100 more than the Bose! These things are amazing sound is great and super comfortable! They stay where they are supposed to! I work construction and workout and they never move! Sometimes I forget they are even in my ears! Well done Bose!

    I heavily researched all wireless Bluetooth headphones and I'm glad I chose these Bose. U can get 10 hours of use and even thought the earpods last longer who needs headphones in thier ears longer then 10 hours??? These are clear and have way better sound than earpods. Way more base. Love my purchase.

    Love this thing, great sound, bass and are comfortable. They don't come off the ear if you move your head around, inly come off if you brush them with your arm while you wipe sweat off.

    Sound quality is great. Better than AirPods. Are a little bulky to wear but I don’t mind that because the sound quality is better than most. Stays in my ears and comes with different size buds. Have to connect each time (like most BT products) .I gave it 4 stars because after awhile they would randomly disconnect (sometimes, not every time), even if they’re fully charged. I am past factory warranty so I can’t return them. My boyfriend had the same pair with the same problem. I would recommend that if you get them you should pay for the protection plan. Rookie move for me not to pay for the protection plan but now I do on all my expensive purchases.

    Don’t by anything else unless you want an inferior product. I have had them all and these are the best. Stay in your ear, sound the best Bose is the master at great bass these buds have a nice bottom end perfect not to much soulful. Don’t be a cheap spend the money you’ll be glad you did.

    Purchased a different brand and returned them immediately! I specifically did not want to purchase wireless headphones that were made for or by a specific cell phone manufacturer. In the end I chose Bose because, let's face it, they do audio....it's what they DO and better than anyone in my opinion. I was not disappointed at all! They fit well in my ear but also came with 2 other size ear 'buds' for lack of a better word. Music sounds phenomenal, I listen to my audio books and have no issues with phone calls. I've asked and the folks I'm speaking with say there are no issues with background noise and voice sounds clear. I am better with controls with each use but also do not have any prior experience with any type of wireless headphone or 'earbud'. Amazing! (Also not the most expensive out there by any means. Not the least either but I felt a good value for the money for sure)

    I am a Bose fan but very disappointed with this product. Bose will tell you that they are looking into the video lag issue (confirmed by Bose directly). Headphones are meant to be multi-purpose these days and these are meant to be top of the range (they ARE Bose after all). I use my phone on my left ear so it's stupid that either or both sides don't allow calls. AirPods are tiny yet allow calls in both ears so this makes no sense whatsoever. Left ear cuts out a lot and the charging case doesn't hold a charge as I find it goes down to 4 lights without even using the headphones. So, Bose, please fix video lag (which is significantly more obvious with these than on the AirPods), fix the connectivity issues and not sure what you do about calls in both ears Seriously, WHY make them to only allow calls in 1 ear especially after the Left/Right Bluetooth headset you used to have (that you decided to stop making, which was frustrating in itself)?!? What is someone is deaf in their right ear?!? Oh, why do the Firmware updates also take an eternity?

      Hi, Thanks for the review. Our engineers have identified the cause of this issue, and are currently working on a software update that will be made available to customers by mid-December. This update will substantially improve audio-video synchronization for those using Bluetooth devices that fully support Audio Video Distribution Transport Protocol (AVDTP) version 1.3 or later. We have confirmed Apple iPhones and iPads use this protocol and we are currently evaluating other popular Bluetooth devices. We’ll provide an update to you as soon as it’s ready. You may follow us on Twitter via @BoseService for updates.As far as phone audio only in one ear, This is a technical limitation of the Truly Wireless Technology that we utilized for the SoundSport Free headphones where the master (right) earbud cannot send call audio to the left earbud. This is typical of this technology and there are several other benefits to using this, such as comfort, fit, and unrivaled sound quality, as well as convenience. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to us anytime at 1-800-379-2073. We are open Mon. – Fri., 9 AM – 8 PM EST. We look forward to hearing from you! Bose

    great sound - discontinued; amazing bud locator

    I hear these are discontinued, my guess is issues they have in certain apps on your phone create a sound delay. example the youtube app has a delay in sound, but loading youtube.com and playing the video on the native video player from apple and the delay is gone. The sound is fantastic for completely wireless. Its the best of the bunch, but to achieve the sound they have to be bigger and i do get second looks. very seldom the buds lose connection to each other if i turn my head a certain way. Its only for a second but noticeable. doesnt happen all the time. ear bud location service is great. they play a really loud tone to find them. it is a big help when they roll on to the ground. I'd maybe wait to see what Bose is cooking up next, but if these come down to $150 they are worth it. sound is just awesome.

    These bluetooth headphones are a great alternative for those who have Samsung. Great sound. Great battery life. Quick recharge. Also lightweight for those who like to workout. (My only issue is an understandable one which is it does not work in the sauna) it will shut down due to high heat.
