Looking for Answers about Bose - IE2 Earbud Headphones - Black, White?

No, there is no mic. You would want Bose MIE2, but they are only compatible with iPhone, not Android.

You can, but just know; there is no in-line mic. So with most phones, you will have to have the microphone on the phone somewhat close to your mouth in order for the caller to hear you. There is a model of these that has an in-line mic and is designed for use while on calls. Hope this helps!

No, this model does no have any controls.

No, you need the other model labeled mobile

The Bose IE2 headphones are designed only for music listening. If you want a product to talk on the phone, we would suggest a pair of our Mobile headsets: the MIE2i for the iPhone or the MIE2 for all other mobile phones.

Most likely they will stay in, I first used the medium buds with the bose and they fit so tight it was hard to get them in and out, but they were super secure. I tried the small size and was surprised by how comfortable they were--I wear them for 8hrs straight. The secure fit was nearly the same with the two different sizes.

You have to twist these when you put them in, so up and down; and side to side bouncing does not loosen them. These are the first headphones I have used while running and doing other active dynamic motion things that don't loosen up over time and don't need to be adjusted.

Yes, they even stay in if you wear them to sleep! The little nylon gizmo keeps the 'bud secure in your ear during even strenuous activity, running, or exercising.

Yes they are perfect for running. That was the only reason I bought them as well and I have really been happy with them. Have not had any problems with them falling out. I also suggested them to a friend of mine and she completely agrees about using them during workouts - totally hassle free!

I ride a bike and run at them gym with them and they never fall out.

I haven't tried running with them on, but I am convinced that they would stay in!

You can use them for anything that has an audio jack the same size, but otherwise, yes you can.

Yes, these can be used with any device with standard 3.5mm headphone jack, including PC, iPod, iPhone, Android phones, MP3 players and just about everything else.

The IE2 headphones are compatible with any device that has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. This includes all computers and laptops. Thanks!

Any device that has a 3.5mm female input jack. So an iPod, laptop, PC/Mac. There is no limit with these! Hope this helps!

You can use these for your computer, mobile phone and anything else that has a 3.5mm jack.

They are descent with sweat. If you're worried, do like me and just pay the extra $20 for protection. At least you'll be covered from other things that can go wrong.

I sweat ALOT and my sweat seems to avoid these guys entirely due to their design and the way they sit in the ear.

I use them to exercise in and they've held up to heavy sweating.

No problem with sweat.

saran wrap the all parts outside of your ear and you should be fine. The inner speaker would be fine, but the one further out and the one on the outside worry me.

they might be fine for a while but i would guarantee you that within 4 to 5 months they will die, a little water wont hurt but over time it adds up

Bose® IE2 audio headphones are not specifically designed to be waterproof or used in highly wet conditions. If water enters into the headphones, there may be damage to the internal components. However, surface exposure to rain or snow should not result in any damage to the headphones.

I think you can run in the rain with these, but please note- if water gets past the buds and into your ear it will get a little annoying. I have run during a few rain showers and had no trouble with them since, maybe I got lucky.

The bass is awesome! If you're focused on buying earbuds based on that alone then you have found the right pair of earbuds. I think that the IE2 are more focused on bass though, so some of the subtle sounds in the music will be less discernible. I notice that drum snares and overall treble sounds are hard to hear.

I just purchased the IE2's. My wife has the Monster Beats in ear bud headphones. By far, the Monster Beats has definately more bass and overall sounds better. the only advantage to the IE2's over the Monster is that it fits better in your ears and is more comfortable over long periods of time. They also stay in better.

not fully noise cancelling and only the amount of bass that was recorded in the song, if you boost it with an EQ they will sound more like dre, but overall these provide more natural sound rather than beefed up bass and super isolated sound. I prefer the bose, my gf prefers the beats.

No These do not compare to Beats head phones. My son as those and the bass is unbelievable. I do no believe these headphones are made for that purpose. The quality of sound is excellent and they have a nice sounding bass but it's not that big sound that the dre beats has. these headphones are not sound isolating headphones at all and it says so on the package. They are just a great pair of comfortable headphones that have the excellent sound and quality that is standard with BOSE products!

A Little

I believe they would work for the purpose you are describing. I use them while riding a scooter to listen to podcasts, and I can hear and understand the talking better than any earbud, noise cancelling headphones I have owned over the noise from wind and the motor of my scooter.

these are good but im not sure if they will block out drums if you go to a music store they will let yo know

They come with 3 different sized tips. Small, Medium, Large. I have a hard time finding ear buds that fit and stay in my ear, but these do a tremendous job.

Yes the Bose IE2 Headphones come with the extra silicon plugs (small and large) the medium silicone earpieces are pre-applied an are easy to remove.

They have 3 pairs: small, medium, and large. Hope this helps.

Yes, just fine. I have the iPhone 4 and have had no problems with them. Klipsch also makes a great pair for the iPhone 4 too.

Yes, it is compatible with Iphone.

Yes, they work fine. I have an iPhone 4 and use them daily.
