What customers say about "Key Specs"

Bose SoundSport Free

Really good ear fit and never come loose in the gym. Get 4-5 hrs battery life even on high volume.
The battery life is long. So long I don't have to worry about it.
The battery power on this thing is great and almost top of the range, especially for the price.
Worst BOSE product ever! Do not waste your money. Connection constantly drops out even when battery is 100%.
Battery life is quoted at up to two hours but I didn't get more than one and half hours at seventy percent audio level.

Jabra Elite Active 65t True Wireless Bluetooth Sports Earbuds and Charging Case

The wireless range seems pretty decent and i've not experienced any cut outs in regards to sound when placing my smart phone in my pocket or even in my bag.
Bluetooth connection (range and reliability) is good and the controls on the earbuds work well with my iphone.
Bluetooth range is huge (~15m through walls). Earbud control buttons are responsive and really useful.
Tested the range and it was around 13m. Impressive.
Left ear bud sometimes cuts out for no reason, very poor range.

What customers say about "Features"

Bose SoundSport Free

Ideal for wearing during activities , exercise and sports as they are sweat and weather resistant and have a comfortable stable fit.
Bose App is easy to install and very simple to connect. Recommended.
So, with some doubt and skepticism, I downloaded the App and put them in my ears and, being a Mac user from early days, enjoyed the way the App led me through the easy process.
The charging case is great, compact and looks stylish. The accompanying app is good, easy to use and has a nice added touch with the 'find my earbuds' feature.
Connectivity was a breeze just download the app and it connected. The find my ear pods feature is a good addition too.

Jabra Elite Active 65t True Wireless Bluetooth Sports Earbuds and Charging Case

Water resistance works well, sweat wipes off easy. Highly recommended.
These earbuds offer significant protection from water and sweat and adequate Bluetooth connectivity to most phones and smartwatches.
Fantastic Jabra Sound + App with customisation, quick-toggle profiles and ambient sounds.
They come packed with feature thru the android/ios app and they allow you to adjust loads of options.
App has some useful features including ambient sounds (such as rain, pink noise, white noise etc to help sleep / concentration)
