Bose Sport Earbuds Truly Wireless are earbuds made for sports. They are the closed-back sister of the Bose Sport Open Earbuds Truly Wireless. This design choice doesn’t do much to block out background noise, but you can still hear what’s going on around you without taking the headphones out of your ears. Their support fins keep them in your ears even when you’re working out hard. Overall, you can expect a lot of different sounds, but not a lot of ways to change them.
The Bose Sport Earbuds are simple and plain, and each one has a small Bose logo on it. But the buds stick out of your ears, and overall, they’re a bit bigger than other truly wireless headphones on the market, like the Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+ True Wireless. You can choose from “Triple Black,” “Baltic Blue,” and “Glacier White” if you want a different color scheme to meet your style.

Where to get Bose Sport Earbuds?
The fit of these buds is good. They don’t weigh much, and the tips of the earbuds don’t go very far into your ear canal. Because of the way their support fins are made, they will also stay in place as you move. Unfortunately, the buds are a bit big and stick out of your ear, which can be a bit annoying.
They have buttons that work well when you touch them. The right earbud takes care of everything related to calls and sound, while the left earbud doesn’t have any commands by default, but you can change that with the companion app. When connected, you can hear some feedback, but the touch-sensitive buttons aren’t very clicky, so you might change a setting by mistake when you’re adjusting them in your ear. Check out the Jabra Elite 7 Active True Wireless if you want sports earbuds with better controls.
Like most in-ear headphones, these buds let in a lot of air, which is great. They don’t keep much heat in and don’t cover your outer ear. Even if you work out for a long time with them on, you won’t feel any change in temperature.
The quality of the Bose Sport Earbuds is very good. Most of them are made of plastic, which feels strong and sturdy, and the tips of their ears are made of silicone, which is flexible. They also have an IPX4 rating for how well they can handle splashes of water. Overall, they feel strong enough that they shouldn’t be too hard to fix if they get broken.
