I've tried a variety of different headphones for running, and none of them beat the Bose Sport Earbuds. They've easily become my new running essentials, and given how often I run, $300 for a pair of comfortable headphones that won't fall out while I'm pounding the pavement is a reasonable price to pay

They’re comfortable as heck, with a secure fit that doesn’t leave your ear until you want it to.

The Bose Sport Earbuds are the most comfortable workout earbuds around, and vastly improve upon the original Bose SoundSport Free. The IPX4 rating protects the earphones from light water exposure. These buds are more than just tough: they sound great too. Despite the ergonomic design and sound quality, the earbuds aren't perfect.

Comfortable and secure with a sumptuous sound, there’s plenty to like about the Bose Sport earbuds. Their uniquely-shaped StayHear Max silicone tips and fins sit snug inside the ear, ensuring they don’t fall out during fast-paced sessions, and their sweatproof IPX4 rating meant we never had to worry about wearing them for intense workouts. There’s no ANC and the battery life isn’t the best, but downsides were few and far between beyond this.

Bose Sport Earbuds have all the qualities of a great pair of fitness-focused earphones and will see you through all types of workouts. Audio is excellent and comfort levels are higher than their bulky looks would suggest.

These true wireless earbuds provide an exceptionally comfortable and secure fit. Despite their size, you almost forget they’re in your ears.

These in-ears have a smooth and warm sound profile. Vocals and lead instruments sound present and clear, which should please fans of content like podcasts or audiobooks. However, sibilants are a bit weak and mixes lack a thumpy low-bass. On the upside, once you achieve a good fit, they can deliver audio very consistently.

The true wireless Bose Sport Earbuds deliver solid audio performance, but the rest of their feature set feels dated.
