Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought these for my sister. I had the black ones, she wanted these to substitute for the Fitbit heart monitor. She loves them!

Many years ago when I was a poor student I had my first experience with Bose quality. While purchasing my first setup of audio equipment I couldn't afford much for components but I splurged and opted for a pair of Bose speakers. This was an investment in sound quality and they served me well. I still have them. Needless to say I had high expectations upon receiving my Bose Soundsport Pulse ear buds. I'm a sucker for nice packaging so I was not disappointed while unboxing several layers as I slowly revealed the gem inside. I'm not a big fan of reading instructions so I proceed on my own confident that setup would be intuitive. It was. Pairing with my iPad Pro was a breeze. Upon pairing, my iPad prompted me to install the required Bose Connect app. I installed the app and then was quickly prompted that there was a firmware update for my Pulse ear buds. Download and installation took a few minutes. The Bose Connect app is sweet. Here's where you can check out your pulse rate. I love the ability to pair to other devices within the app and switch between them easily. I am a bit surprised by the size of the ear buds. They are larger than I would expect. I initially suspect that due to the size that they won't be comfortable. Wrong. I pop them in each ear and I'm pleasantly surprised the buds are quite comfortable. I'm also pleasantly surprised at how secure they feel in my ears. These are designed well. They're not going anywhere. Time to check them out in a mirror. Cool and quite futuristic. I like it. Now was the time to check out the sound. I jump on Spotify and explore everything from The Weekend to Queen to John Coltrane. Wow! What a full, balanced, and natural sound with great bass and great volume. I'm actually more impressed than I expected to be. These Bose deliver a dimension to sound reproduction that you just don't get on cheaper buds. I think it says a lot when you play a song you've heard hundreds of times and suddenly it sounds new again just because of a quality source. Once again Bose doesn't disappoint. Well worth the investment. Highly recommended.

Went in to buy some Bose head phones, they were out of stock but the salesperson ordered me some great service and fast delivery

These are really great headphones. They are very well packaged, easy to get in to and initial set up was very easy. Inside the box are the headphones, different size ear wings (a smaller and a larger pair, in case the medium doesn't work for you), a short USB charging cable (no AC adapter), instructions, and a carrying case with a convenient carabiner to attach the case to your bag, or whatever. Downloaded the pulse app to my Galaxy phone and it guided me through the pairing process. Paired with multiple devices, (my phone, an Android tablet, my PC) all using the app via my phone. Was a very simple process. The fit of these in my ears is really comfortable and I could see wearing them essentially all day. The sound quality is outstanding even at low listening volumes. Really deep basses and clear highs. They aren't noise cancelling but I suppose that also depends on your listening volume as it was easy to drown out any external noise. I haven't had the opportunity to use the built in microphone to make a phone call. I would expect to be able hear callers normally because of the great sound quality, but I am not sure about the built in microphone as it's on the cord that is behind your head. I'm not a runner, but the ear wings seem to hold the headphones in your ear very snugly and comfortably. The pulse feature seems to work well in detecting my heart rate and is accurate when compared to other methods of measuring my heart rate. Went for a walk and tracked my walk using the Runkeeper app. With no additional setup whatsoever, the app automatically displayed my heart rate while I was walking and displayed an average after I was done. This makes it easy to know the intensity of your workout, etc. The controls on the wire control volume, can pause the music, and answer phone calls. The headphones will announce who is calling (based on what's in your contact information) Stated battery life is 5 hours. That seems like the only limiting factor to wearing these all day long.

Can't go wrong with Bose!!! I would have put 5 stars but hurt my ears a little but great for workouts

I like these ear buds. I like that I can listen to music & take calls & when I'm working out keeps up with my heart rate.

These headphones are great. They allow me to track my pulse when boxing when I can't wear my apple watch.

Not bad, I liked it. Works good, great picture and easy functions . Love it. Would not work without it .

Awesome headphones, I just wish Bose could make them so they are not so bulky in the ear.

These things are awesome! I Love the tech behind these things with HR tracking and a high-quality microphone!

They do not sound as good as my bose wired ear phones. Good but no where near the base.

I was very excited to receive this product because of my past experiences with Bose. From the packaging it screams quality. Opening the box you are welcomed by the neatly packaged earphones. Inside was the simple manual, different sizes of ear fitters, USB, earphones case, and earphones. Right out the box I was able to easily pair it with my iPhone 7. My iPhone was able to know an app was available and suggested that I download it. I first found it a little difficult to put on the earphones but after several tries I finally got the hang of it. With the earphones on you probably won't like the way they stick out. I'm still not understanding why Bose made them that way but I'm happy that they at least stays on. I pressed the power button located on top of the right earphone and was greeted with the battery percentage and that it is connected to my iPhone. After opening the app it can also keep track of my heartbeat. You can change tracks, volume control using the earphones or the app. The sound is great in my opinion but I'm not a professional. Using this to make and receive calls is also clear with voice. I decided to jog in the light rain since these earphones are rain and sweat proof and I think the wireless Bose earphones passed my test. I overall like the earphones because of the quality and sound but I'm not impressed with how it sticks out my ears. For the price I think it is almost worth it but appearance can make or break the success of this Sound Sport wireless earphones.

Great headphones for working out, they are really stable, won’t fall off while doing excersing.

Very easy to set up the device to my phone. has a carrying case to store when not in use.

My daughter is hoping these are under the tree. It got a great review, and I got a good price at Best Buy.

Better than most. No issues during setup and performs well. Got it for my wife and she is happy with it.

I like running with these and the features are nice to have too.

My niece has raved about these headphones since getting them. On her way to college and so thankful

Big fan of Bose. If you want to use them for working out they will be a bid plus.

Just another great Bose product! Our entire family uses Bose earphones, nothing but.
