Product details

Exercise is a demanding activity. That’s why you demand headphones that are up to the challenge. With no wires in the way, SoundSport wireless headphones keep you moving with powerful audio and earbuds

Connect to your device easily with Bluetooth and NFC pairing. Once you’ve tried them, you’ll realize SoundSport headphones are not just named for exercise—they’re made for it.

Roundup:
StayHear+ Sport tips are designed for the utmost comfort and stability, with a soft silicone material and a unique shape that sits gently in your ear | Bluetooth and NFC pairing so you can connect to your devices wirelessly | Volume-optimized EQ gives you balanced audio performance at any volume | Lithium-ion battery delivers up to 6 hours per charge | Bose Connect app helps manage paired devices and gives you a personalized experience

Powerful audio to keep you moving
When you’re working out, you want your earbuds to stay in. That’s exactly what we designed our StayHear+ Sport tips to do. The tip is formed in a unique shape to create a gentle seal at the entrance of the ear canal, which helps improve audio performance. There’s also an extended flexible wing that uses the ridge of your ear for support and provides significantly improved stability—no need to force them in. The soft, silicone material and rounded profile delivers an unmatched combination of comfort and stability for long-term wear. And it should: We developed more than half a dozen prototypes based on original StayHear+ tips to ensure we had the best solution.

Bluetooth & NFC pairing keep you tangle-free
Pairing SoundSport wireless headphones to your Bluetooth device is simple. And if you have an NFC-enabled phone, it only takes a quick tap between your phone and the inline remote. Use the inline remote to take calls, control volume and skip or pause tracks. You’ll find the reliable performance and convenience keeps the focus on your sport or workout, not your headphones.

Sweat- and weather-resistant design:
Whether you’re sweating it out in the gym or braving the elements for a run, these headphones will keep you going every step of the way. The acoustic ports in each earbud are positioned to resist sweat and weather, and the hydrophobic cloth keeps moisture out.

Easy control
Connecting to Bluetooth devices and switching between them—say, from your iPad to iPhone when a call comes in—is now delightfully easy. The free Bose Connect app manages all connections with an intuitive graphic interface. Once paired with multiple devices, the headphones will switch between them automatically whenever you want. The app also provides software updates, product tips and even lets you personalize your settings.

Starker Sound im Test: Die Bose Soundsport Free zählen zu den komplett kabellosen In-Ear-Kopfhörern mit der besten Soundqualität. In der Fliegengewicht-Klasse sind sie zwar auffallend groß, trotzdem lassen sie sich noch gut verstauen und sitzen fest und bequem im Ohr. Auch die Akkulaufzeit ist gut, aber nicht überragend...

Klangstark. Zweitbester Ton im Test. Geringe Abschirmung von Außengeräuschen. Lassen viel Schall entweichen. Lautstärke lässt sich am Hörer einstellen. Sprachassistenten Siri und Google Assistant aufrufbar. Telefonate nur auf rechtem Hörer zu hören. Schalten sich bei Nichtbenutzung ab, Akku dennoch nur ausreichend...
