    In my opinion, perhaps the best attribute of these Bose headphones is how comfortably they fit in my ears. The sound is quite balanced, bass is tight and punchy but not overpowering, mids and highs are good as well. It is on par with other in-ear headphones at this price level if not better. Lets not forget you also get the Bose quality and these headphones definitely have that premium feel. Three different size ear tips are included with your purchase. A proper fit is essential in getting the optimal sound and comfort. My rating is really 4.5 out of 5 but that is not an option here. Overall, I would recommend these headphones to anyone, assuming the price fits their budget. One side note, I bought the iOS version and I can confirm that it will work on Android phones as well (I have an HTC One M8). The remote works except for volume control. I chose the iOS version because I switch between iPhone and Android devices quite often.

    Best Headphones for the Money

    This is my second time purchasing these headphones since the first pair were stolen from my desk at work. I have wasted too much money on other headphones trying to something that would give me something close to the sound quality of these headphones and I have been disappointed every time. I even got a pair of ur beats which broke after 2 weeks of use. I decided to stop being a dummy, spend the extra cash and get the headphones that I really wanted to begin with. I sit at my desk between 9 and 12 hours a day and listen to music and podcasts the entire time, my ears deserve to be happy.

    I purchased these headphones due to the recognition of the BOSE name, and have been very happy with them since. I've been using them for about 3 months now and have no issues with the sound quality or the mobile headset feature. I use them on runs and while road biking and can easily answer a phone call while on my bike. I was riding at ~15mph and got a call and the contact on the phone couldn't hear any wind interference or tell I was on my bike. The headphones come with three size ear "wings" and both the medium and large are comfortable in my ears providing versatility. I was initially going to buy the sport version for the sweat resistance, but opted to spend $50 less for this model and purchase a $19 protection plan. Very happy with my purchase.

    Comfortabl, Stable, and Have Great Sound

    In researching a pair of earphones to replace my old Klipsch s4i, my priorities were 1) comfort, 2) security/stability in my ears, and 3) sound quality. Based on these metrics, the Bose are an excellent choice for in-ear earphones. Comfort is excellent. These can be worn for several hours with minimal discomfort provided you have the proper fit. For me, I used a small tip in one ear and medium in the other. Play around with the different sized tips and you will find what works for you. In addition to being comfortable, the Bose earphones are very secure in my ears and have yet to fall out unexpectedly. Again, finding the right size is important to obtain the best fit. As far as sound quality goes, I think the Bose are very good. You can certainly find better audio in the same price range, but I feel the Bose are the best option available based on the three criteria mentioned above. I hope this helps.

    Purchased these for $100, which in itself was a great deal. Bose offer truly great sound quality and these stay tight in my ears during runs and hikes. The base in particular is pretty good - I predominantly listen to hiphop and have no complaints, but I also notice a wide range of sounds when listening to other genres as well. Really, my only minor complaint is that the top of the wire - the part that breaks apart into two - can be a bit longer. At times, being tall, I feel that the wire isn't long enough to stay in place, and this occasionally causes minor irritations within my eardrum. It's slight, however, and does not do away with the quality and performance of this product.

    Duh, they are Bose - leader in almost everything audible. I tried several other brands - on sale - and nothing compared to the comfort and sound quality of these earphones. Everyone told me to get over the ear, but for everything I do that is physical - from my workout to mowing the lawn - you simply cannot BEAT these headphones!!! (pun intended!) Thank you Bose - p.s. Best Buy return policy is THE best and eventually allowed me to finally enjoy these headphones... Thank You !!!

    I have to say Bose makes some good products. The sound on these is very clean and solid. They're better than the pods you get with an iPhone. They are an open ear design. The rubber cups in your ear don't seal the sound in or out. You have to decide if it works for you. I switched the cups to some Sony cups I had and now it seals the sound quite well. The base is insane if you mange to get the cups to stay on. I have some Bose OE2 headphones, these are just as good.

    The sound is amazing, the quality is amazing a great value from a respected brand. I looked on the bose website and saw these going for $179.99. The carry case looks quality the chord feels sturdy enough. They arent very sound insulating and definitely not like my old klipsch s3's. However unlike those i know if you take them to the bose store you get a discount off your next pair. Overall I'm satisfied.

    Headset stays in your ears no matter what your doing! Sound is great with controls at easy reach on the righthand line. Works well with iPhone 6 for listening and for audio when making phone calls. Lightweight and good looking product that is well made.

    I asked for 115 mph ear buds for my motorcycle and he gave me these. I needed something to stay in my ears and not blow out at those speeds. I tried them and they work and you can still hear music. It's light but still at that speed with wind and noise. It's great. Way worth the money and I'm a tight wad.

    My husband gave these to me as a gift because he liked them so much. They are very comfortable to wear, which is great because that's been a real problem for me with other headphones. The quality is also very good. I compared them directly to other sets that I have and I was surprised at how much richer the sound is. I would definitely recommend these.

    Was looking for a decent pair of ear buds. I used to be a Klipsch guy, but after the 4th pair broke I needed a change. These bose earbuds have great sound, decent bass and feel super comfortable in my ears, I'm in an open office environment and need to drown out others around me on phone calls so I can concentrate on work. Recommended.

    These headphones are great!!!! I love how they fit in your ear, just nice and comfortable. I also love the sound. It is nice and clear, bass not as good as urBeats by Dre which sound fell apart after 6 months use again. Nevertheless, so far so good, the sound is great and hopefully they last even longer especially for the price you pay.

    Originally wanted to buy the beats by dre, but they're headphones and you shouldn't have to spend $200. Bose is know for their speakers so I figured the mini versions won't disappoint, and I was right. The sound is great and they come with different sized fittings. Comfortable and they don't slip out of the ears at all during workouts.

    Absolutely the best. Their might be some earplugs out their that have a slightly better base but over all these are priceless. Sound is amazing and the best part is the fit. Those that burry them self in your ear tent to hurt after an hour of use, at least for me. I can wear these Bose for 24 hours and not know they are in. Try all three adapter to see what fits your ear best. Also very important is the microphone. I have a Samsung Note 4 and bought Bose SoundTrue for Samsung. I was reluctant incase I go back to Iphone and microphone wont work. Thats what best buy employees told me. But after speaking with Bose they assured me that the microphone will still work, just not the microphone features like volume and song change. I can do that on the phone itself, no biggie. Love these!!

    More likely over-ear headphone than ear-bud and quite compotable and convenient. Excellent sound for music and clear conversation for phone call.

    I read several reviews saying that the bass was not good with these ear buds. That couldn't be farther from the truth. They are the typical Bose quality that I have throughout my house. The sound is clear and the bass is great. Buy them, they are worth the money.
