Super comfortable in the ear and will not move on a workout
Quick charge capabilities
Good luck finding truly wireless earbuds that sound better than these you won't
I found the signal very reliable and strong. I had no drops or issues getting the earbuds to pair
These are even more comfortable than the standard SoundSport Wireless

Connection dropouts
Occasional lag when watching video
Very sculpted sound signature
Design isn't for everyone
Mushy control buttons
Bulky charging case
Lack of aptX protocol (not necessarily a deal breaker)
Larger than most hardware in its class
Designed to allow outside sound in—may not appeal to all listeners
They struggle in loud environments
Don't always sync with video
High price tag
Relatively large buds stick out of ears
Noise isolation is lacking for noisy environments like a gym
Weighty, full-bodied sound, Deep, powerful bass, Even tonal balance,

Great sound, Comfortable to wear for long periods, Battery life is immense, Nifty "find my earbuds" feature, Solid connection
Design means the buds stick out quite a bit, No customisable equaliser, No heart-rate monitor, Buttons are hard to press
While the Bose doesn't have some of the smart fitness features you get in the likes of the Lifebeam Vi or Jabra Elite Sport - no heart-rate or cadence measure - we'd still comfortably call the SoundSport Free the best sports earphones for pure music enjoy...
Bose has done a pretty decent job at making its first wireless earbuds. They're quite large but remain light and offer excellent sound quality which should be a priority for anyone. While they offer decent battery life and IPX4 waterproofing, they're lack...
