The Bose SoundSport Free are an excellent sounding pair of wireless headphones with an ultra-reliable connection. They can an easily withstand the abuses of working out, however, their poor fit and open design will turn many casual listeners away.

Bose has done a pretty decent job at making its first wireless earbuds. They’re quite large but remain light and offer excellent sound quality which should be a priority for anyone. While they offer decent battery life and IPX4 waterproofing, they’re lacking in real sport features like tracking or a heart rate monitor so look to the Jabra Elite Sport if that’s important.

Bose’s first truly wireless earbuds take much of what made the Bose SoundSport Pulse great – namely the secure fit and sound quality – and cut the cord connecting the two buds. They’re one of the most secure-fitting sports-orientated headphones on the market, and they also deliver a great sound experience.
