Bose SoundSports Review: Perfect Earbuds for Serious Cyclists
The Bose SoundSport Wireless Earbuds are a great choice for serious cyclists who want to listen to music while riding without worrying about sweat damaging their earbuds. The earbuds have a comfortable fit that prevents any wiggle room or potential for falling out, making them ideal for use during intense rides. Additionally, the earbuds allow users to listen to their music without completely blocking out surrounding noise, making it easy to hear traffic and other people while riding. The earbuds also have helpful automation features, such as automatically detecting when the right earbud has left the ear to pause music and detecting when the earbud has been put back on to resume music. The touch controls make it easy to skip tracks or adjust the volume without having to pull out your phone while riding. The call quality is excellent and the earbuds are impervious to sweat, making them perfect for daily use. The battery life is strong and perfect for typical training rides. However, the sound quality is a bit more trebly than some may prefer, and the connection between the earbuds and the device may not always be perfect due to the nature of Bluetooth devices. Additionally, the earbuds are reliant on the Bose app and taking calls while riding a bike is not possible due to wind interference. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Bose SoundSport Wireless Earbuds have out-performed in almost every way expected and are a great choice for cyclists looking for a reliable and convenient wireless earbud option.

Bose Sport Earbuds: A Disappointing Purchase With Numerous Problems
The Bose Sport Earbuds may seem like a good replacement for the SoundSport headphones, but they come with a slew of problems. The lack of a wire makes them easy to lose, and there is no way to fast-forward or reverse any song or podcast you're listening to. The auto-play/auto-pause feature doesn't work correctly, and the standby mode drains the battery just as quickly as if it were actively playing. There is also no off switch, and the tap/control features are limited compared to the SoundSport headphones. While the sound quality is great, the Sport Earbuds are overpriced and an inferior and problematic replacement for the SoundSport headphones. It's best to avoid purchasing them altogether.
