Bose SoundSport in-Ear Headphones for iOS Models, Blue - Wired

I've always loved Bose's In-Ear Headphones. I've had IE2 model before and I loved it until one of the wires just decided to detach itself from the rest. The reason why I love these are because I can't really tell if they are in my ear or not while listening to music. It's that comfortable. I've had other sets of earphones and some of them hurt my ear after listening to music for 1-2 hours. I never experienced that problem with this. I've purchased the SoundSport model so I hope this one last longer than my previous one. These are quite pricey compared to other earphones you can get. I was happy to pay this premium price for the product because I was happy with the comfort, sound quality and overall built quality.There are things I don't like about. Bose decided to offer these for iPhones and Android phones separately meaning that there is a model specifically for iPhone only and Android as well. So if you decide to get one of these, make sure you get the model designed for your device or else the volume control won't work with your phone. I've had a LG G3 when I purchased these and now I got an iPhone so the volume control button doesn't work for me :( I personally don't like this idea of separating models for each phone because if you switch phones then you are kind of stuck with the one you have unless you are in that return/exchange period. Make sure you keep this in mind when purchasing these.The wires tangle often in my pocket but I think it gets untangled pretty easily though.As expected from Bose products, these don't have that much bass. It does offer very clear sound but I can tell that other earphones have way more bass than these. Furthermore, I've noticed that these aren't very loud when I was listening to music using my G3 but I think the problem went away when I switched to iPhone. Keep in mind that, you can use the one for Samsung phones with iPhones but the volume control will NOT work. I can't guarantee that the Samsung model will work with every iPhone out there so don't risk it.

In short- Get the "plus" tips. As other reviewers mentioned, it improves the sound 100%! I listen to rock and metal music. I have pretty awesome setups in my car and in my house, so I figured- why not have something better when I'm on a run? I've always been hesitant on earbuds because its impossible to really try before you buy. The apple "earbuds" were awful. The "earpods" they came out with a few years ago with the iPhone 5 were what I've been using. They have decent bass delivery and sound pretty good. I'm happy with them, but as I said, wondered if there was something better. I took a chance on the Bose Soundsport and I'm glad I did.... after a little modification. Honestly I was NOT impressed with these buds in their stock form. I couldn't tell much of a difference between my free Apple earpods that came with my iphone and these $100+ earbuds. Not a bit. Taking the advice of other reviewers I put the "plus" tips on and now I DEFINATELY have a better set of earbuds. Much better punch after the switch. Rock music sounds heavy yet still clear. The stock tips as well as the plus tips are very comfortable as well and I HATE the way many earbuds squeeze into your ear canal.....so uncomfortable and gross feeling ugh! These are smooth and are not wedged into your ears at all. Great fit for me with the Medium tips. The volume toggle, "skip" function on songs, and mic work well also- just make sure you get the correct model earbud to match with your phone OS. Get the buds, get the tips, and these are a great upgrade without taking the chance on even more expensive earbuds.+Great Sound (after tips changed)+Very comfortable (and I'm picky about this)+My mic and volume work well with iOS- dumb that we have to buy another $10 set of tips to make this sound like a premium earbud....just include them! but then again its only $10...
