I got thesesin hear headphones as a gift. I already knew bose had great sound. When i put these in they were extremelycomfortable, fit great with the adjusting silicone tips, they were noise canceling, and best of all they sounded geat. I never knew headphones could sound like this. Bose products change the sound experience. Who ever likes music must buy these!

The three sizes of earbud tips were perfect for attaining the best sizing for the inside of my ears. I tried jumping up and down, jogging, and running, and still these earbuds never fell out. The sound quality is absolutely astounding. The base really comes through in a way that small earphones have never been able to deliver, and the music is richer. So much richer that you simply have to hear it to believe it, as cliche as that may be. The carrying case is handy, too. Worth the money.

I received these as a gift for Christmas of 2008. The earbuds are comfortable, fit well, and had very good frequency range and excellent bass for an earbud. However, they sadly started malfunctioning and only certain segments of the audio output are coming through the buds. This occurred after returning from an airline trip in my stowed luggage, but I cannot be sure what exactly caused the damage. Will look for a decent quality but less expensive pair to replace them with.

What's great about it: Comfort and sound quality.
What's not so great: Nothing.
Great sound, and excellent comfort. The ear buds that came with my IPod Touch hurt my ears after 5 minutes of wearing. With the Bose product, I had choices (I'm wearing a different size in each ear), and it is totally comfortable after hours of wearing. And, of course, the sound is great.......it's Bose! Totally satisfied with this purchase. I would recommend it to anyone.

I own many BOSE products and have been very satisfied with every purchase well almost every purchase. The Headphones sound great and are a fair price. Only problem is they are uncomfortable, the part that goes in your ear they constantly fall off. The other problem is the cord where you plug into your device is loose and my headphones no longer work.

What's great about it: Sounds Quality, durability, fit, they don't look dirty so fast
What's not so great: Tangles easily, but who cares, untangle them.
I use these as a replacement for the ones that came with my iPhone. The sound difference is fantastic and handles bass well. I find that regardless of the type of music, everything sounds clear (rarely with the tweak of the equalizer). Also, it comes with 3 different sizes so it should fit most people fine. I use the large size. Unlike the apple pair where the wire shred easily, I have found that these are very durable. Also, since they are black and white, I find that they don't look as dirty either over time. I am not into blue tooth since I don't like to have to turn something else on, have to worry about recharging, and the sound quality on the other end is never great. I use these in the car and everyone says they hear me perfectly. If you are using them for your iphone or ipad, the button easily lets you switch songs either forward or back, not only for the music player but also pandora and other apps as well.

What's great about it: Sounds great fit's comfortably. no real complaints!
What's not so great: sometimes they fall out of my ears if i leave them in when i fall asleep.
I use these headphones when I run. Treadmill or track i've never had a problem. The buds come with three different size cones to fit different size ears. the people that think these fall out too easily are probably wearing them in the wrong ears. I've accidentally knocked my ipod off of the shelf of the treadmill and the buds stayed firmly planted in my ears. I listen to mostly classic rock and rock alternative and will occasionally listen to something with more bass. No matter what I listen to, the bass is clean the highs are sharp. If you feel there's too much bass your mp3 player should come with an equalizer. Good product for the price. I would not only recommend these earbuds, which i've done frequently, i would also buy these as gifts.

What's great about it: If you know how to get the best sound out of your player these are for you.
What's not so great: If you don't know how too than spend less money......
Ok let me just say for those who say they are to bassie it's your player NOT THE HEADPHONES . I personaly own highend equipment , bowers & Wilkins , Rotel ect. I find these to sound incredable yes if you are using a mp3 player than you will want to make sure it has a EQ. people need to remember that one of the flaws of mp3 is a lower bass FQ and harsher highs . Try copying full spectrum on you player if you can you will notice a massive differance in sound. Apple i-tunes will allow it but you have to change the settings in the conversion software from mp3 to real time. You will use more space but it should be about quality not quanity. If you do this you will be blowen away with the sound that you get from these headphones. But if you must have mp3's make sure your player has a EQ and USE IT......

What's great about it: Sound quality, stylish, comfortable.
What's not so great: Lasts for about 18-24 months even with great care. Be sure to buy the replacement plan with it.
The 5 stars should let folks know how well these In-Ear headphones work. The sound quality is amazing, they are extremely comfortable (was able to wear them non-stop on a 12 hour plane ride with no discomfort at all), and compact.
For those who gave this a bad review because they couldn't work out with them need to realize something; these are a luxury pair of ear phones. Your complaints are completely moot. That's like saying it is difficult to run while wearing a pair of Sandro Moscoloni dress shoes or Prada. They weren't made for running.

What's not so great: falls out of your ears easily.
I generally listen to music when i work out, and i listen to classical music, so the quality needs to be really good. I need something that will stay in my ear, be fairly durable, and have high quality. They wouldn't stay in my ear no matter which size ear tip i used, they certainly do not have noise canceling and apparently that is more important than i had realized so i am not even sure about the quality of the sound because i really couldn't hear it well, the wires easily get too coiled too easily, and so after a couple days i am returning them. I am disappointed because i had high hopes with Bose.

What's great about it: Everything; sound quality, disability, and comfort, and comes with a nice set of accessories
What's not so great: I can't think of anything
These by far are the best in ear headphones I have ever bought. In ever category (comfort, durability, and definitely sound quality!) these are the best, and even beat the diddy beats by dr dre, and I thought those were amazing. The headphones make it sound likethr person who is singing is right there, and the bass is just at the right level. I have had them for about 9 months now and they still sound and look brand new. Bose never will let you down!

What's great about it: Sound Quality, earpieces feel fine.
What's not so great: Not noise canceling, flimsy cord, overall bad durability.
i have owned the bose for the past week. The sound quality is terrific however the fact that they don't cancel out noise is unacceptable. Yes, i know they are not supposed to, but for $89.99, they just are not worth it, plus the cord is very flimsy looking, also feels non durable. If you want great in ear noise canceling earphone/speakers check out these..i returned the bose and purchased them for the same price of $89.99

What's great about it: Sound quality
What's not so great: Buds not really secure, and easily tangled cord.
The sound quality is ok and handles bass alright, but my problem is with the buds themself. I have only had them a month and I have lost all of the buds. After I lost the first ones ( the ones that actually fit my ears) I made sure that the others were fastened on tightly. It seemed just about after ever work out I was missing one. They would fall off somewhere betweem the gym and my house. I started mixing them afterwards. Bose needs to find a more secure way of keeping these buds on.

I have never found a pair of ear buds that I could tolerate, they always made the insides of my ears hurt. These are SO COMFORTABLE & come with 3 different size ear pieces to connect to the ear buds. The sound quality is absolutely amazing. This product exceeded my expectations, even for a Bose product. Highly recommend!!!! Thanks BOSE & BBY!!!!
