These are the best earbuds I have ever owned and I tried them all. Mainly because I have extremely small ears and everyone other earbud either falls out or hurts my ear. I need something for walks and around the house/office when need to hear around me is critical. If I want sound quality I put on a pair of headphones. These are awesome.
I’ve had them for over a week now and I ❤ them. I’ve lost so many ear buds because my ears so tiny. They’re the most comfortable earbuds I’ve owned and you name it, I’ve owned them! Also the battery life is VERY GOOD!! No complaints and I wear them every day all day!
I am consistently worrying about my safety on public transportations and feel insecure when I can’t hear clearly what is happening around me. This would be a good solution without compromising music.
I agree. Im a Bose fan and have around ear noise canceling headphones which I absolutely love. I take them every where with me just in case i need to cacoon myself into some music. They do have a button where I can turn off the noise canceling which I use when Im cooking or something like that, BUTT in video meetings, I have these use headphones on my head. I had never wanted to get the airpods pro because I have small ears and even regular earbuds sometimes dont fit me quite right. I am definitely looking at these for taking video calls, runs (where I'd like to hear traffic), or if I dont want to lug these big things around with me. Great video!
$450 in Australia. I’m usually very careful and picky with my tech, and your review was one of the few that are mostly objective. These looked like a solid option from a reputable brand, but I’m extremely disappointed. Unless you’re in a perfectly quiet room, these just don’t live up to the brand’s usual standard. The comfort isn’t great compared to over-ears, the Bluetooth connection is unreliable and clunky, and the sound quality is abysmal. Below 40% volume, the sound is decent-but only if you're in a quiet environment. To make matters worse, Bose customer service was no help when I tried to return or exchange them. I expected better from such a reputable company, but this experience has been frustrating from start to finish.
@OceanTomkins-f5y it was a nightmare to take them back but managed to do so at the end basically arguing with the retailer, a Kafkaesque experience for sure! Called Bose before that and was told they could do nothing about it, which was disappointing. How does Bose get in the business of making sound equipment with terrible sound?
After losing 1 air bud, I’m pleased I got Bose as a replacement. These stay on your ears and are perfect for my application. Podcasts, talking books etc etc. Still educating myself and enjoying long bush walks with my dogs.
hello- thank you for the review, you helped me with many questions. just a quick question, does it work for phone calls/conversations? i mean, does it carry mic'?
I’m pretty sure these types of earbuds were originally made to let the ear breathe. If you keep in earbuds for a long period of time, wax can not drain properly from your ear, and a ton of earwax gets stuck in your ear canal.
I find regular earbuds painful, but these are surprisingly both comfortable and secure. I wear them for half a day at a time easily. Longer than that can get a bit uncomfortable, but it's still not bad. I wanted something that allowed ambient noise because I have people around me I need to listen for.
do you think these will work for someone who gets ear ache due to wearing earbuds, I thought these look like they don't go too much into ears. or do they?
Just ordered these for trail running in the desert. Being able to hear rattlers and Mtn bikers is big deal. They’re on sale right ow so it’s worth giving it a go
Just got the Bose for Diamond 60th Edition from QVC for $250 including tax ($20 off for new customer) and I gotta say: total disappointment. I don't agree the sound quality of Bose is better than the Shokz. These Bose are going back. I was at least hoping the sound quality would justify the price. I have heard other reviewers say the sound and the fit of the Bose were A+. The only thing they win is the design and fit. The design is cool how it hooks, but that is all. Shokz is hands down better and they feel great wearing them for hours.
Microphone sucks! For that price they should have worked on that. Gate reviewers that clearly don’t talk about it or you can tell they are biased. Had them for 3 weeks and nobody could hear me at all!
I mean overengineering the concept of transparency-mode of common anc-ear buds with em trying to achieve it mechanically is neat but prolly also the most useless achievement in ear bud tech lmao

You can change volume by click and then click and hold. Left or right to decrease or increase it.
Tech RUclipsr confused about why people want to hear the real world around them. 😂😂😂😂
Ear Fatigue is absolutely a number 1 issue with me and earbuds.
These may not be the perfect answer but definitely a step in right direction

I love mine, too!

Great video! Love the editing and the ambiance

Did you take them back

Hi where did you purchase the yellow cord used in the video to charge your Bose earbuds? Please?

Has anyone noticed that the battery drain on the right ear buds is more than the left?
Great video. Spot on review. These are good, different,stylish, but not worth $299. More like $199 or below. Which you can find already used .
They should have optional attachment to connect to ear canal to get better bass. It's an easy fix for Bose.
hello- thank you for the review, you helped me with many questions. just a quick question, does it work for phone calls/conversations? i mean, does it carry mic'?
yes
They do work for calls, but not very well. Voices are low, difficult to hear especially when outside or in car with some noise around.
@@sarikakis my experience is the opposite. They work well. And with their app, you can control the bass, treble and mid tones. Check it out...
You say there are other options to these what else is out there that are similar to these please ?
I just received them this week, I love them! Most comfortable earbuds for sure!

never tried earbuds without noise cancelation, i wonder if it isolates sound enough
do you think these will work for someone who gets ear ache due to wearing earbuds, I thought these look like they don't go too much into ears. or do they?
They do not go into the ear canal at all. They press lightly against the dish above your upper earlobe, these are perfect for the pain problem
@@JETX25 great thank you
Just ordered these for trail running in the desert.
Being able to hear rattlers and Mtn bikers is big deal.
They’re on sale right ow so it’s worth giving it a go
Great sound but one fatal flaw….the universal one size fits all design is taking away from their true potential..had to return them because of this..
I don’t want something in my ear canal. This is perfect
Super jedinecna sluchatka❤👍!
Blessed be need please
they are awesome

Considering purchasing these but I have one concern- I have piercings all down my ears. Anyone who owns these with piercings?
What are thoseeeeeee
Did he just compared these with speakers?!
Weird

how about cooking without headpones ?
