When the package arrived and I picked it up and I was surprised by the weight. The box was heavier than I had expected. (I had really expected it to be feather light considering these are sport headphones.) Inside: Soundsport Pulse Wireless Headphones with medium ear pieces attached, a zippered case, USB cable, one set of small ear pieces, one set of large earpieces and of course associated paperwork. The ear pieces are also marked right and left and with an “S” for small, and “M” for medium and an “L” for large. The earpieces are very easy to change from one size to another on the headphones.
I immediately went to my laptop and it was super simple to pair the headphones and fire up my music. In true Bose fashion, they sound great! I went through several different songs of different music genres and the sound was excellent in all cases. These are not noise canceling headphones, but I turned the TV on with the volume slightly louder than I would normally listen and I could not really hear it unless the music got quiet. I would think you could wear these on an airplane and do pretty well and they are much smaller than over the ear headphones.
I also gave them a workout to see how well they would stay in my ears if I were active. I whipped my head around pretty good trying to dislodge them but they did not fall out! There is a clip on the wire that connects the right side to the left and it appears sturdy and able to keep the head phones from falling on the ground if they did fall out of your ear. When connecting to your device the headphones let you know the percentage of the battery life and there is a volume control and pause button that you can use to also skip forward and back through your song library. My laptop was in the family room and I walked through the kitchen and dining room (around a corner) and into the living room before starting to lose the signal. There is a free app for your phone called Bose Connect. The app tracks your heart rate. When paired with a cell phone, you can use the pause button to answer calls. The sound quality for calls is quite good and I was told that I sounded very clear on the other end.
