Reviews for Bose SIE2i Sport Headphones

Overall really happy with these- they sound great, the fit is stable but really comfortable, I solid win in my opinion.
My short wish List would be a silver, black or white option and a 90 degree 3.5 mm plug not the straight is comes with.
Neither are deal breakers here just preferences, I'd totally recommend these.

The SIE2i sports earphones have a BIG PROBLEM with the inline mic and volume controls. They are not as sweat resistance as claimed and I have 2 sets stop working with in 1 week each. The first set was purchased on the 22nd of December 2012 and the replacement was received on the 29th of December 2012.

I exercise about 5 times a week and usually for about 30 mins each session. The original set and replacement set both had the same identical problems within 1 week - First the volume rockers give way, after which the 'answer call' button and the microphone starts malfunctioning (works some times or not at all).

Is this a design problem? Or is it just me? For the same symptoms to manifest themselves after similar durations (1 week), I suspect it could be a product design flaw.

I'm training for a half marathon and so tired of headphones that either don't fit correctly, the sound is terrible, or they hurt your ears after 30 minutes (when you still have another 1:30:00 to go)! First run with these today and I already noticed a difference with them! Better sound, the stay put and the clip that you attach to your jacket or shirt is handy!

These are the perfect cord length for a iPod nano or shuffle(generation with clip) no need to have a bluetooth model this cord is just right. Also comes with an extension cord if you want a longer length. Same quality sound from MIE2i Mobile Headset which I wear for work at UPS.
Customer service is second to none. My MIE2i Mobile Headset wire was wearing out and there sending me a new one after these were used for over two years at a reasonable price about 60 percent off and there paying for shipping the old-ones back. Great company who values there customers and there call center is USA based!

The sound is great, the earplugs stay in my ears, but my iPhone 3GS with protective cover does not fit into the armband cover. Finally I was thrilled to find earplugs that stayed put, but I was bummed when the armband didn't work for me.

The selection of headphones can be quite overwhelming from the apple store due to a vast amout of selections that are availible. I selected these headphones based on supposed durability and brand name credibility.

My significant- other pointed out that these headphones are not noise cancelling and that applies to their sound outside of the ear, the non noise cancelling results in the ear phones needing to be turned up excessively in loud environements. The volume necessary to acomplish not hearing environmental distractions is to loud for people surronding me to not be subjected to listening to my music.

I feel that the amount of external volume is not fair to my peers/ the surrounding population, therefore I'm going to return them.
Thx
