Bose SoundSport Wireless Headphones, Black

 

The Bose SoundSport Wireless are well set for adventuring in the great outdoors. A handy hook keeps them firmly in place even during running, while a clip attaches to your clothing to put pay to any annoying bouncing around.

Plus, they’ll bang out your playlist faves with panache.
If you have an iPhone, get the Beats, but if you have any other mobile device, get the Bose. They’re extremely comfortable, sound great for sports headphones and connect to multiple devices without suffering any dropouts.

The inline remote is easy to operate while you exercise, and the mic allows you to take calls (although wind is a factor when cycling). The five-hour battery life is pretty standard for sports headphones, but NFC tap-to-pair is a novel and valuable addition for devices that support it.

Review For The Best Sound Sports Headphones

Bose SoundSport Wireless Headphones, Black

Zip back a few years: Bose used to be a company that marketed its stuff at old people in the back of broadsheets. Now it makes some of the most desirable tech around. It’s more a thinking person’s Beats than grandad fodder these days.

The Bose SoundSport Pulses are tech-packed sport earphones with a heart rate sensor built into one earpiece. It’s much better than the sensors you find on most smartwatches, still getting a good reading even if you’re haphazardly pounding down the pavement to sweat out a hangover.

There’s a Bose app you can use to see your pulse, but just about any fitness app worth its salt will recognise the headphones as an HR accessory for proper tracking. Don’t care about bpm? There’s a version without the heart rate monitor that can be had for about £30 less than these.

The other hit feature of the Bose SoundSport Pulse is comfort. They look dead bulky, but these are among the most comfy wireless sport earphones in the world, using in-ear hooks that are stable and ultra-flexible at the same time. While they’re in you forget there’s a great big bit of plastic poking out of your ear, mostly because the housing is actually very light.

The Bose SoundSport Pulse’s sound quality is very good, with enough bass to satisfy during a workout, but also a generally smooth and rich tone. They’re sport earphones that want to be your only earphones, even if they don’t quite have the micro-detail of a great pair of non-sporty earphones.

Pricey, but really good sound and built-in heart-tracking make the Bose pair the ones to get if you can make the stretch
