Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have been using these headphones for past 11 months and it is one of the best product I have used till now. I use it daily for the gym and while cycling to school. It had a problem a few days back with one ear piece, then I contacted bose regarding that and they replaced it for me.

Excellent sound with zero noise in ear headphone. Comfortable.

I have a pair of Bose headphones previously, but they unfortunately broke. I attempted to find some replacement in-ear headphones that weren't nearly as expensive, but nothing seemed to sound as nice as the Bose headphones. These in-ear headphones are comfortable, as long as you select the correct size of earbuds. I know it isn't recommended, but I have worn these for several hours and experienced no discomfort. They have stayed in my ears during shoveling, running, and the various other duties around the yard. I just wish the cord was slightly longer. It feels like it is just slightly too short and find the earbuds pulling slightly during some exercises. I'm no audio expert, but I really like the sound quality these headphones produce. They are great in the mid and high range, but somewhat lack in the bass department.

I love beats. Most people say this discounts me as a memeber of being an audiofile but i love the heavy bass. These bose have bass but not to the same level as beats, i beleive its cause they do not fit as snuggly in my ear as beats. But other reviews are correct, they are better overall then beats with you being able to hear everything in a audio track. The biggest plus is their comfort. though i cant sleep with them on, they do fit comfortably and can withstand movement. the biggest disappointment is, short cord and no mic or volume controls.

I got these for $49 when Best Buy had them on sale. I cannot find better sounding - or more comfortable - earbuds unless I want to spend $100 or more. They have a good quality feel and fit and finish is excellent. The comfortable tips come in three sizes for different sized ears. I can wear these all day without me ears hurting. Since earbuds sit directly in the ear, however, it can be difficult to say that EVERYONE will think these sound great. The geometry of the ear has a major impact on sound reflections, and thus a major impact on how your eardrum receives the sound waves. You'll need to try them for yourself to see if they work for you. To my ear, the sound is very natural with neither the highs nor lows boosted. These are not reference or studio quality, mind you, but they do work well for casual or on-the-go listening. I would like them better if the cord were longer. The cord is long enough to use with a phone, but not quite long enough for me to use while sitting at my iMac.

Love them! They are the best pair of headphones that I have ever had. I had been looking for a good pair for years. Every pair I bought would fall out of my ears until I found these. I love how they rest comfortably in my ear and the sound is fantastic. My last pair of Bose headphones lasted me for about 5 years and I have not doubt that these will the last the same amount of time!

I replaced my 2 year old pair of Bose with these. They sound just as good, I got them for the same price, and these are water resistant. I even sleep in them from time to time and they are small enough that they aren't uncomfortable.

The night before Thanksgiving, I had to replace my head phones very last minute before leaving town. Fortunately, our 24 hour store was open a couple hours longer than most retail stores t. Unfortunately, this particular stroe did not have the headphones that go with my phone so I looked into alternative options. I settled with these for the simple reason that they were the only model available with this type of ear bud. Being a brand name though thier price was nearly $150, which was just $120 more than I had planned. But being the only option, I proceeded for the check out where I discovered Best Buy had kicked of their Black Friday Sale that very evening. To my delight and plesant surprise the final cost was only $100. Which for a brand name is what I totally would expect them to cost. In fact, this is now their retailing regular cost. Meaning if I thought I got them for a steal, you finding them on sale again will make it highway robbery. This is a superior set of headphones. The standard size buds fit me perfectly which never happes, but just in case they come with two replacement sets varying ever so slightly in size. The material used is so soft, half the time I forget that I'm wearing them when no music is playing. The sound quality is excellent and they cancel out more surrounding atmospheric sound then one would think pssible, which makes them perfect for when I'm on the subway and can still hear my music without having ro blast the volume. Lastly they come with a storage pouch thay has a clip that works great when attached to a belt loop. No more digging to bottm of my carry on while sprinting through the airport. I just wish there was a mic component to these since I use them with my phone, but I can hardly hold Bose accountable for this fact, as they're known for speakers. Highly recommended for anyone who finds circular buds painful and the classic headphone style to sweaty on your ears or annoyed by how they always mess up the perfect hairdo.

These are comfortable and sound great, especially for the price I paid. I like these because they actually stay in my ears and I don't have to mess with the uncomfortable hook going behind my ears with other sports in ear headphones.

I purchased this when it was on sale. Hands down one of the best you can buy around $50. very comfortable (you can wear it for hours and you won't even notice it) and great sound quality.

I tried these in-ear type headphones before years ago but found that the plastic ear inserts were rigid plastic and annoying and scratched my ears. Last month my sister-in-law said that I probably had the wrong size...and tried hers...and I was amazed how comfortable they were ...and how well they stayed put while running. I've used these headphones daily since and love them. Sound quality is amazing...I do prefer an even balance and not bass heavy phones...these may peak in the mid frequencies but that sounds good to me. Enjoy!

Really like the sound. I am more impressed with the comfort in ear and the way they stay in during normal wear or when I am working out.

Great value for the price. The ear head phones are functional and durable. The head phones are perfect for a person that lives a active life. The ear phones sound great.I like the fact that they came with replacement ear liners. One improvement that I would like to see on the ear phones if a mechanism, like a volume control switch placed on the ear phones to make volume control more accessible. Overall it is a great value for the price and I would purchase them again with no problem.

I bought these headphones for my daughter and the sound was amazing as well as the comfort of the ear piece. The earbuds that comps with apple devices are hard and my daughter (with sensitive skin) would always get an irritation when using them for more than just a few minutes. With these they are so soft and gentle on the ears you can wear them comfortable for hours. I would have given it 5 stars however we bought them specifically for iPhone and they do not fit when the iPhone has it's protective case on.

These bose headphones from best buy have a great sound and are so small and comfortable.

I use earbuds a lot. I wear them for work and a lot in my personal time. I have worn these earbuds for 10+ hours with zero discomfort. Not some, not a little NONE. The shark fins were a bose-first design, but there are now a lot of imitators. I've tried several and no others are simultaneously as comfortable and as secure. These buds simply will not fall out. The sound quality is superb and well-balanced. I have driven these hard with no distortion to the limit of volume I can take. Highs are subtle and clear, no tinniness or harshness. The lows are full and round. The buds handle the lows without distortion, which impressive for a small driver. I will note that these are not for folks who like their bass maxed out. The buds will deliver okay if you overdrive the bass, but the beauty of Bose is in the dynamics and balance. Plus, a larger driver, like those in on-ear or around-ear headphones are better suited to that kind of use.

I went through about 5 different pairs of headphones before I finally tried these. I should have tried them from the beginning, but I was just being cheap. A lot of time wasted for no reason, sometimes you are just better off paying for quality. I use these for running, working out at the gym and just listening to music. They are very comfortable and stay in place when active.

Wow... just wow. I've always used <$50 headphones... figured anything more expensive was a marketing scam. Saw these on the Black Friday promo and picked them up. What an amazing difference. The sound coming from these is full and rich, ABSOLUTE night and day. Nice bass (not overwhelming), not tinny hollow sound. They are very comfortable and sit in the ear nicely, barely even know that they are in. I haven't tried out others in the hundred dollar price range to compare these to, but at 60% off for Black Friday they are the steal of the season... knowing what I know now I might have even ponied up the full price.

Great sound. Good fit. Very comfortable. Solid value.

Extremely comfortable and lightweight. 3 different sized earplugs come standard in the box to ensure right fit. I use medium across other brands, medium work on these too. Fit feels just right, they do let some noise in, so don't expect complete noise isolation. The curved hook helps stay them on the ear, I use them for running and at the gym. Now to sound quality. Extremely well balanced. Good bass and strong mid and highs. None of the beats over boosted BS. If you like well balanced music, these are definitely worth mentioning. Oh, and they come with a nice fabric case!
