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.

    I would have rated these 5 stars because they sound amazing! But there is a terrible audio/video delay in apps like YouTube while using with my iPhone XS Max. Be warned. If you plan to use these to watch a lot of video, your results will disappoint. And yes I do have the latest firmware.

    Big. Ugly. And does not seal like most other in-ear monitors. But, they're not terrible by any stretch of the imagination. They sound fine and the water resistance is great for sweat. If only theyd stay in my ears while running.

    Lag in anything I do

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    When I first purchased these headphones, they were great. After a day I realized that anything I listen to will have about a 1-2 sec lag. Watching a video lagged the audio out of place. Even listening to music, when I press play it takes about 2 seconds to play. I read reviews online and many people have the same issue. Pretty bad product coming from a great audio manufacturer.

      Thank you for taking the time to write a review on your SoundSport Free wireless headphones, Ricsos. We're sorry to hear you're experiencing this delay with your SoundSport. We have released firmware that improves audio-video synchronization on devices that support Bluetooth AVDTP Protocol 1.3 or later. Audio-video synchronization may also depend on the app being viewed (e.g. Youtube, etc). We will continue to partner with select app developers to improve these experiences. We encourage you to use the most recent software of your mobile apps, Bluetooth devices, and Bose headphones. We truly appreciate your feedback and we will pass it along to our engineering team. Thank you again, and have a great day. Jesse - Bose Support Bose

    The sound is ok, not different or better from other bluetooth cheaper headphones versions. The worst part is that during my walk the left earpiece keep cutting off. I went back to use my Sony headphones. Bose is loosing their touch, not good quality of sound and equipment. Lost money on this one.

    The sound is excellent, if you want something that sounds strong, this is the best option. The bad thing is that the battery is damaged very quickly, I took them to repair and they told me that it was cheaper to buy new ones.
