Lightbulb Bose In-Ear Headphones

Bose In-Ear Headphones



The best purchase I have made for my iPhone. If you listen to a lot of music and the stock headphones just don't do it for you. THese are for you. Great sound quality, good bass, how audio should sound. I know they are little pricey at almost $100. Normally I am hesitant with the "in-ear" headphones but these don't even come close to falling out. I worked on for 40 minutes and no problem with them!

10% now. Get them while they are hot!!!

No they didn't, I didn't use that feature that much so it doesn't bother me if I don't have it. I wanted headphones that fit and sounded good for car rides, airplanes, walking to and from class, and studying. These are just what I was looking for.

I tried the Bose in-ear headphones when I first got my v1 phone. No mic was a deal breaker for me. I almost always have headphones on when talking on the phone. I could do live without the button but the mic is definitely a necessity for me.

Glad to hear you really like them though.

I love Bose products, but I really like the microphone.

I don't have the iPhone but, once I get the money I might purchase some of these. I love my v-moda Bass Freq's though.

I can also recommend the Bose earphones, they have outstanding sound quality and are comfortable. They don't block ambient noise like the kind you insert into your ears, but they do a LOT better job than standard earbuds. Not having a mic isn't an issue for me because I'm usually listening to it at work and don't need to talk to anyone but if you need a mic, Shure makes an adapter that lets you use any head/earphone.

Make your own for about 8 bucks....i did and they sound just as good as the exspensive ones, and you get to keep the mic button.

Nice video I would give this a shot but I don't have a solder gun or a glue gun.

Like dcom said, don't buy them for noise canceling, get the around ear bose headphones for that, these cut a LITTLE out, and fit fantastic in the ear, the headphones don't seem to be trying to fall out of your ear.

I'm aware of that process but I purchased the UB5 headphones which also have the mic button and I am thrilled with them.
