Control functions only work it apple products, but the mic works for products outside of apple too
the "i" after MIE2 is short for "iDevices"

Yes but not the MIE2i model, you need the regular one which is the MIE2

Thanks for your question. The MIE2i headphones are designed specifically for use with certain Apple products (such as the iPhone). A better option for you would be the MIE2 headphones. They do not have volume controls, though do include a microphone with an answer/end button and are compatible with a much larger variety of mobile devices, such as your HTC phone.

Checked Bose website and no information

80-18000hz

We do not publish these types of specifications for our headphones since we feel they are not an accurate representation of the overall sound quality of a product. We always recommend listening to them yourself to decide if they are the right choice for you. Thanks!

Read Above - Bose MEI2's are the answer for you.

the MIE2I works with only Apple products but there are also the MIE2 that work with android and other devices

Good question! The Bose® AE2i mobile headset’s volume up and down buttons will not work with other non-Apple products. The answer/end function may or may not operate properly, as this function varies from model to model. The Bose® AE2i mobile headset is only designed for use with select Apple products.

Yes.

Yes they will

I use these headphones with my Galaxy Tab and they do sound great, however, they only pause and advance the song but the volume control does not work.

The MIE2i's are designed for compatibility with certain Apple products such as iPhone and iPad, though they will certainly work with other devices. They include a microphone with an answer/end button and volume controls. Audio playback and microphone use would be supported, though the volume controls will not operate non-Apple devices. Thanks!

it probably won't work

Your TV remote will only control the volume through your connected headset if the TV has a variable output. This would be a setting that can be adjusted in the menu for your Sony TV.
