I find earbuds to be uncomfortable. I needed something so I could listen to stuff on my PC and other devices without bothering those around me and without breaking the bank.

I absolutely love these headphones. Have been using bose headphones for a while now and along with the great sound quality I am happy to see the new color options!
Pros:
Amazing sound - These headphones offer amazing sound quality as the previous versions have offered. These are not noise cancellation headphones but still do a great job at restricting exterior sound/noise.
Multiple uses - I have used these headphones for watching movies, listening to music, taking calls and meetings, playing videogames and no matter what I use them for the sound quality is as good each time.
Comfort - I just cannot stop praising the comfort offered by bose headphones. They are extremely lightweight and the ear cushions are extremely comfortable around the ears. They do not grip you tight around the ears like most other headphones thus providing the comfort of being able to wear them for a long duration without any inconvenience.
Size - The headphones are not bulky, easy to carry around and they fold into the small case that makes it easy to pack them anywhere. They will fit pretty much anywhere, just not into your pocket :)
New colors - I am glad to see bose add a bit of color to the headphones and shift from the traditional black/gray and appeal to a wider variety of folks.
Voice controls - The mic along with the volume controls are conveniently placed and ensure that these headphones can be used for much more than just movies or music!

We purchased these Bose headphones for our daughter for Christmas. We were looking for high quality but small size since she is only 11 and of slight build. These are perfect. They are extremely light weight and fit her beautifully. I was concerned about stretching them out when I tried them on, but there was no need for worry, they fit me just as comfortably and now I'm a bit jealous of the sound quality she gets vs. my earbud style. I didn't realize it when we made the purchase, but the headphones come with a nice carrying case and they fold up quite compactly. Although it is a matter of personal preference, I think these Bose are more comfortable then my husband's Beats.

So I purchased the beats ear buds because they were cheaper than the bose ear buds, and the things didn't even fit in my ear! They kept falling out. I was going to return them and get the bose ear buds, but never really owned a nice pair of headphones so I grabbed these bad boys. They are light, compact, they are not the loudest, which is good because it won't make you go deaf, but the sounds quality is like no other. It makes listening to music that much better!!

Excellent pair of on ear headphones by Bose. Sound quality is great. They are lightweight and do not cause discomfort while using them for a long period of time. They fold up great and fit in a nice travel case. Sturdy construction for those who use their electronics normally.

Sound is great. Small and comfortable for short periods. Not good for long periods of use. Seem a little flimsy but the case is nice and will help protect. Comfortable lightweight and small is what I was looking for so these work great.

Headphones are a rather personal experience, and everyone will have a different opinion on the same pair. These are comfortable, well constructed, and have good audio quality. The bass has a healthy rumble to it, with a smooth impact you can feel on the ears. I found these to sound best in hip-hop and dance music, and some rock with bass sounds that regularly hit and release. However, in metal and other types of rock with consistent bass, I found that the sounds blurred together and interfered with the clarity of the vocals and higher instruments. I believe most people will enjoy these, but I cannot recommend these to other metal fans.

I am not a fan of Bose speakers but gave these headphones a try. They are comfortable during extended use so that your ears don't get sore. The sound quality is good for the price point. These are not noise cancelling nor do they block out ambient noise, so don't expect that from these cans. But if you are looking for comfort, quality sound, and portability, give these a listen.

I love these little Bose headphones. They sound great, fold up nice for packing and the price was reasonable. They do hurt my ears a bit after wearing for awhile, but I have a feeling that would be the case with any on-the-ear headphone. Might have to try over-the-ear next time I'm in the market, but hoping these will last me for years to come.

I was looking for a pretty good headset at a good deal. Best Buy's pre Black Friday sale was perfect! The headset is comfortable, great sound and compact, for an over the ear. I picked Bose over Beats because I didn't want to hear music with extra bass. The case is great as it doesn't get tangled in my purse or travel bag. I have a few flights coming up which will really test it. Only regret is that I'd gotten two.

Got these for two of my kids for Christmas. They love them. They sound great. They are light weight and dont hurt your ears. My oldest has beats and i prefer to use these. They are more comfortable and just sound better to me. If you want more thump than the beats has that but these wont disappoint.

I bought these when BestBuy matched the Prime Day $80 price tag. For the price I paid, these are fantastic headphones. Yes, there are cans with better sound quality, better build quality, yada, yada, yada. There are better headphones that excel in single areas that may be cheaper, and there are better headphones that excel in all areas that are more expensive. These headphones are a great balance of comfort, sound, quality, and price. I have a large head and wear glasses, and for this reason have hated some otherwise truly great pairs of headphones as they hurt my ears when wearing my glasses. The Bose SounTrues have never given me sore ears or a headache even when listening for 3-4 hours while wearing glasses. Their only downfall as far as I'm concerned is the proprietary cable. I wish Bose had used a standard 3.5mm connector on both ends of the cable. The end that plugs into the headphones is non-standard and this is annoying as it forces you back to Bose for an overpriced cable that you should be able to pick up from any retailer. That aside, these are truly great headphones. Don't listen to the Bose haters.

I purchased these for my husband for Christmas because they're Bose and the price was good. Wasn't sure if he'd like them, but he loves them! Not over the ear, so not really noise cancelling, but so much better than ear buds, very comfortable, light weight and the sound quality is very good. We're delighted!

I hate earbuds and don't like the heavy headphones that are made by most quality manufacturers. I tried these and the mint over the ear headphones and both sounded great and were lightweight. I opted for the in ear because they didn't sound like I was in a tunnel. They fold nicely and fit into my backpack nicely.

Great sound quality and some of the most comfortable on-ear headphones we've ever tried! The price was surprisingly affordable for Bose! We would definitely recommend these headphones to anyone interested in great sound quality and comfort. They're particularly nice in the lab/office environment.

I bought these headphones on Black Friday for $60. What a steal. They sound great and design is sleek. My only minor issue is the length of the cord. It's a bit to long but luckily i haven't got it caught on to many things. Otherwise these headphones are perfect for my commute into the city.
