Bose true wireless earbuds
-
For those who want complete freedom of movement without sacrificing superior sound quality, our wireless earbuds offer the best of both worlds. Oftentimes, people use over-ear wireless headphones despite wanting in-ear headphones because earbuds don’t always offer the most secure fit. A poor fit can result in them falling out frequently and becoming lost or damaged. That’s why we’ve designed our Bluetooth earbuds with several options for fitting the earbuds to the unique shape of your ears. Our true wireless earbuds come with the Bose Fit Kit, which provides several sizes of eartips and stability bands you can mix and match to create the most comfortable seal for each ear.
How does noise cancelling work? Our Bluetooth earbuds use patented Bose CustomTune technology to optimize active noise cancellation and sound quality to your individual ear shape. You can use the Adjustable EQ settings in the Bose Music app to further customize and control the bass, midrange, and treble levels to your liking. Our wireless Bluetooth earbuds can also take phone calls with crystal-clear sound quality while employing active noise cancellation to reduce unwanted ambient sound in the background. Plus, with up to six hours of battery life and a sleek, on-the-go charging case, they’re everything you’ve always wanted in a wireless headphone, but with the secure fit and style of in-ear headphones.
