Bose SoundSport Pulse review

Solid and sporty wireless earphones that deliver an impressive sound

Excellent wireless reliability ; Fun bass ; Decent HR sensor ; More comfy than they look

Short battery life

Not quite perfect, but these are the best-sounding pair of wireless in-ears we’ve tested

Love my SoundSport Pulse headphones!

I thought these would be cool, but after using the new Pulse headphones I am really happy with the sound and heart rate feature. They are very comfortable and stay in place while running.

Perfect sound quality. To me it's second to none.

Amazing!

As is expected for Bose, the sound quality is outstanding. The design and functionality of this product is also great. My only critisism is the 5 hour battery life. I don't just use these for a workout. I use them at work. I sit at a computer 6-8 hours...

Convinced a sceptic - they really are very good

From the simple picture instructions, being charged in the box - they were up and running in just a few short moments. Easy to follow video guide to link to fitness app. But that's just fluff really - what matters, and what it delivers on is great...
