Importance of proper fit
When you wear the headphones properly, they provide the comfort and clarity you expect from Bose®.
Fitting the headphones to your ear
The headphone earpiece has a soft Stay Hear® tip attached, allowing it to rest com-fortably in the bowl of your ear. The wing part of the tip fits just under your ear ridge.
Note: Each StayHear® tip is marked with an L (left) or an R (right) to indicate which earpiece it is designed to fit. Be sure to attach the Left tip to the Left ear-piece and the Right tip to the Right earpiece.
To determine if the tip is the right size:
- Insert the earpiece into the canal just enough for the headphone to rest lightly against your ear.
- Tilt the headphone back and press the tip wing under the ear ridge until it is secure. The tips should fit comfortably yet securely in the bowl of the ear.
Changing the eartips
Select the type and size of eartip that provides you with the best comfort and fit.
- Gently peel the edges of the attached tip away from the earpiece, using care not to tear the tip.
Caution: To prevent damage, do not pull on the StayHear® tip wing. - Position the opening of the new tip over the nozzle and the small slot over the nozzle hook.
Note: Each tip is marked with a either an L or an R to indicate which earpiece it is for. Be sure to attach the left StayHear® tip to the left earpiece and the right StayHear® tip to the right earpiece.
Ease the base of the tip down around the base of the earpiece until the tip feels secured.
Attaching the extension cable
Attach the extension cable to create extra cable length between the headphones and your mobile device.
- Connect the female end of the extension cable to the headphone cable.
- Connect the other end of the extension cable to the standard 3.5 mm headphone input on your device.
Adjusting for comfort and stability
There are several ways you can adjust your headphones to provide additional comfort and stability. You can customize how you wear your headphones using the adjustment slider and clothing clip.
Using the clothing clip
Use the clothing clip to fasten the cable to your clothing, for convenience, stability, and to help manage the cable. This can be helpful during high-movement activities or when using the headphones in a single earpiece configuration.
Using a single earpiece
The Bose® SoundSport™ in-ear headphones can be used with only the right (R) earpiece in your ear. This allows you to take calls and still hear surrounding sounds.

Frequently Asked Questions
That is a really good query. The Samsung version will allow you to listen to music from iOS devices, but the microphone and controls might not function or might only do so to a limited extent. For use with Apple products, we advise getting the iOS version, while for use with Samsung and Android gadgets, we advise purchasing the Samsung/Android version.
I don’t think so, really. No one has ever noticed that they can hear the music when I wear them to the gym, but I haven’t inquired.
I do have a pouch me extension, yes.
The Bose Sound Sport In-Ear headphones are particularly tough to withstand use when exercising and are moisture and sweat resistant. They will be useful to you if it rains.
Yes, they should function because the majority of aeroplanes have jacks that can support the 3.5mm (1/8″) male stereo connector that these headphones have.
The newest model, this one only includes a little pouch to carry the headphones. however, the older model has an arm band. By the way, the only difference between the new and old kinds of headphones is the accessories.
The track and volume control buttons won’t function, but the microphone will function and you’ll hear the music.
You can wear the headphones in your ears for hours because of how comfortable they are. And for quality level, as you are aware, the boss offers the very best.
What a wonderful question. No matter what smartphone you’re using, the Bose SoundSport In-Ear Headphones for Samsung Galaxy Models will deliver excellent audio. The Android version of these headphones, however, was created especially for the Samsung Galaxy line of smartphones. Other Android devices might have some limited functionality, however Bose cannot completely support those devices.
There is no way that you could be listening to music, receive a call, and then resume listening.
I have no idea. If the controller gets wet, they tend to have problems with it.
They are often more comfortable than the majority of IN-Ear headsets, but they do not attach to your lobes.
Since this is the iOS version, you won’t be able to use the inline mic correctly, but the sound will still come through just fine. Look them up; they do have an Android version.
Actually, that was not the cause of my issue; rather, after two months, the right earpiece began to cut out and crackle, and they refused to repair them. They were the blue ones and cost more than the much older pair of green ones, which are still in excellent condition. That a corporation like Bose does not support its product baffles me.
Good bass. Low noise isolation. Ideal for bike or jogging
