From the BOSE SOUNDSOPRT WIRELESS evaluation, to see the purchase decision of a Bluetooth headset!

• Preface

As a consumer to make a purchase decision, what kind of process will be experienced, and how to choose the relatively suitable product in the process? I will make a purchase decision in the following five stages.

Demand recognition → Information gathering → Product evaluation → Deciding on purchase conditions → After product evaluation

The evaluation of BOSE SOUNDSOPRT WIRELESS (behavior after the product evaluation) will push back the above purchase decision, hoping to give you a reference for the Bluetooth headset. This new wireless headset is BOSE's first Bluetooth sports headset (high price for new products, which enhances the purchase conditions). It is a wireless upgrade version of BOSE's SIE2 series that evolved into the SoundSport series. After getting rid of the shackles of cable, it can provide users with better sports experience, but after using it for a while, it has found that this headset is more inclined to solve urban commuting and short-range sports scenes (product evaluation), on the market about wireless Bluetooth headset The variety of products, I will (information collection) "choose Bluetooth headset, I have experienced what pit? "Summary, related articles see the following link. And the "Bluetooth headset some of the most common problems" collection summary appendix at the end of the article, for product purchases (needs of understanding), it is recommended that you value friends from their own use of the scene to analyze, after all, even the best product is only to be suitable Not perfect.

Tip: The article is longer, and the picture is more (a total of 60), it is recommended that friends hurry to pull directly to the bottom of the high-definition color large picture summary. Of course, the structure of the article is as follows, for a little time worth of friends to choose. Last but not least, I would like to thank my friends for their patience. You guys have patience...

Before opening the box, combined with the popular “Mobile Expression Pack”, first express what this earphone gave me “the first ear experience”, and also expect the Chinese team to achieve good results in the next Olympic Games, the Chinese team refueling, Chinese swimming team come on!

• Unpacking

The first is appearance appreciation. In the first step, Aunt Zhang’s Queen’s parcels took pictures and opened them.

- Product appearance and details

The front of the outer packaging is printed with a big picture of the product.

Open the box to see the body of the product.

The simple box looks very high-end.

The side marked with the product's color, origin and other information.

Side front.

There is a description of the product behind the box. Another point to mention is that the product warranty card is attached to the outermost layer of plastic film, in order to ensure normal after-sales warranty in the future, this needs to remind you to remember to use scissors to save it.

Not long ago, Bai Bing shared a "Picking Bluetooth Headphones I Have Experienced" with Bai Bing. This time the captain asked for her appearance.

As a female character, the captain still needs to pay attention to the position...

When the captain was a kid...

All the accessories after opening the package are as follows: 1 headset, 1 headset storage bag, 2 pairs of replacement shark fin earbuds, 1 charging cable, and a bunch of instructions.

The details of the headset

This series of appearance down, do not know how you feel BOSE SoundSport wireless's face value?

To take an exaggerated metaphor that is not entirely appropriate, the process of selecting the headset and selecting the object is similar to the reference.

In the picture below, the entertainment circle also plays with talents. Which of Xu Jinglei and Feng Jie is your dish?

Also as a headset, which figure is the next you are willing to wear out?

• Use of the scene

- City commuting

1. Wear feelings

Since I got this headset, every time I go out, the headphone's overall size is too large (the problem of headset weight is placed on the outdoor sports experience below). Although the volume seems a little bigger, but it is credited with The soft fit of the earplugs on the shark fins (blacker than the wired version, slightly stiffened), the feeling after the ear is still relatively comfortable, but the relative comfort of wearing earplugs can be felt from an upper ear It is different from other brands. When other brands add earhook or earflaps to wear, they will obviously feel the hard silica gel stuck on their ears. And this kind of ear feeling will become more obvious with the increase of wearing time (usually continuous wearing time is less than 3 hours, if the time is long, the ear still has a slight feeling of pain). Another thing to say is that this feels better for the earplugs, which is related to the combination of the earplugs.

The combination of the general sports earplugs is "independent earplugs + independent ears." In order to achieve the effect of movement stability, fixing with ear flaps is the most traditional practice.

This combination may bring more collocation possibilities to users, but it will undoubtedly increase the likelihood of falling ears, but from the perspective of cost control, it also brings lower costs for merchants. (Especially Jabra ROX's ear flaps, it's too easy to lose...)

The production of modular molds is certainly much lower than BOSE's StayHear+ earbuds, and quality control is also easier to control.

The picture shows "Integral earplugs" for shark fins. Obviously, earplugs and ear flaps can be seen as one body. This can not only bring about a more obvious integrated wear experience, but also virtually eliminate the possibility of falling ear flaps. Of course, as far as the earbud design is concerned, BOSE will not hesitate to increase the cost of the group model to get a better wearing experience.

So in this regard, I think the soundsport wireless's actual experience is still in line with the advertising slogan.

2. Bluetooth stability

The product description and website description did not indicate the soundsport wireless Bluetooth technology, plus there are indeed some problems you want to understand, so find a platform BOSE customer service consulting under the ... oh, the process omits 500 words, is simply customer service Ask me... The more I ask, the more I don’t know how many people I have yet. Asked two casually did not dare to ask. For the protection of the platform, I kept the contents of the consultation hidden... (Tell me Bluetooth 3.0... This is also wrong... Actually Bluetooth 4.2.. This really makes a difference, the last Bluetooth headset in the article The most common questions will be appendixes)

PS. After communicating with the BOSE China Technology Center, we can be sure that the technical documentation in the hands of some e-commerce customer service is completely wrong, and may even mislead the user. It is recommended not to ask. The problem of passage through the ditch has been noted at the back of the article.

The process of contacting official technical support is also very difficult. The first two calls were made and each time a tone was heard "You are waiting for 0 users.... Continue to wait. Press 1..... Your current waiting user is 0.... Continue.. Wait. Please press .." I listened to it three times and I hung up! A long sigh ~

Here, suddenly realized that he was caught in a misunderstanding of the product experience, can not be too concerned about the technical parameters and the principle behind... Therefore, we should take more consideration to the fact that all measurement is for the overall user, return to the natural readability Language. Some relevant introductory notes will be listed at the end of the article.

Soundsport wireless's overall Bluetooth experience is OK, but for a while (mobile phones are usually placed in the pants pocket), the sound may occasionally appear intermittently and intermittently. Listening to a song on the desktop with a mobile phone has a much lower probability because of the distance.

3. Call quality

In-room calls: Asked a few people across the phone, the basic feedback is: The effect of talking directly with a cell phone is no different, why do you ask, what are you doing again... (Heard here I'm on Soundsport wireless The quality of the daily use of the call is still very gratifying.)

Good call quality, and the location of the microphone has a certain relationship, starting from the SoundSport series, the microphone position is closer to the mouth than the previous SIE2 series, of course, as a Bluetooth headset, the microphone should also be on the top. And compared to the few Bluetooth headsets I have on hand, the Soundsport wireless has more microphone openings.

Outdoor calls: A comparison of the speed of cycling and the quality of the conversation, affected by wind noise. (It is not recommended to wear headphones when riding or driving)

Street alley: There will be some noise, but there is no problem listening to the contents of the call.

PS. When using Soundsport wireless to connect the phone, if there is an incoming call, the headset will automatically broadcast the other party's name and phone number. This time is still very convenient. However, it should be noted that the name of the contact person in the mobile phone contact list cannot be added with symbols or expressions, or it will affect the validity of the voice broadcast.

4. Life

The overall battery life complies with official instructions for 6 hours.

5. Pass feeling

Although I had a lot of Bluetooth headsets in my hands before, and I also know that a main sports wireless Bluetooth headset will not provide too good sound quality, before the purchase of Bluetooth sports headphones, there is not too much tangled in the sound quality above. However, BOSE's skill is indeed deep, even the low frequency is reflected in the Bluetooth sports headphones ... This means that "move times hit times" dynamic and wireless pleasure can coexist! Originally the sound quality of the Bluetooth sports headset is intended to mention nothing, but the sound quality of this headset is indeed commendable, in addition to low frequency, the overall sound of three-dimensional, which for the main rhythm of running exclusive music, there is a great Promote. The mid-high frequencies are a little worse, but there is still a big improvement compared to most arcade headsets outside of the world (such as Apple's earpods and white headphones). Comprehensive from the wireless portable, good sound quality, call reminders, BOSE's exclusive belief in the four elements of this point of view, this is undoubtedly a new city artifact.

6. BOSE CONNECT app

After the headset is connected to the phone for the first time, a prompt will appear to install the software. Click to enter the store installation.

When the Bluetooth headset is turned on, the phone searches for Bluetooth devices in range.

In the phone settings, connect Bose Soundsport.

After connecting, go to the app's home page.

Click on the menu in the upper left corner to get product product information including factory date, etc. You can also customize the name of the headset, select the prompt language, and more.

Use with music app. (This is a good song that you dare not give to the original singer! Brush it many times and use it with this headset. It's very sensational. Don't ask me why I listen to it myself and I'll make sure it will surprise you.)

You can also go back to BOSE CONNECT to operate music. The app will automatically generate a landscape background.

Habitually tossing, crashing software, recording the probability of recurrence...

â–¶ Overall, the software is simple and easy to use, but its functionality is too simple. This app only provides some basic operating functions. Personally feel that the most used device management is to switch or remove the device. The rest of the control operations can be done through the headset itself or the music app. There is no need to open one more software and it is a lot more.

PS.

1. The voice prompts of this headset are too dangerous. When I spoke to me for the first time, I was shocked.... I was immersed in the music. Suddenly, “connected you~ Eco, this is my phone~ My response was: "What is this ghost?" Then on the phone to find a variety of, did not know how to reproduce this prompt tone ...

2. Soundsport wireless's volume is relatively quiet, compared to the use of Jabra's ROX, indoor if I adjust to 50% feel harsh, but Soundsport wireless indoor should set the volume at 50% to listen, and at 70 More than % have more obvious low frequencies and details.

- Outdoor sports

BOSE has positioned this headset to serve sports scenes. And most good sports equipment has a common tip: light!

There should be a lot of value-loving runners who may have thought about this question: Doesn’t running need to bring a mobile phone? Indeed, in this era of mobile Internet, the role of mobile phones has been more than just making calls and sending messages. Can also provide a wealth of applications, including sports app can help give runners during the process tips, after the end can also help runners to manage and analyze sports data, music app can provide sports fun. My personal choice is that the mobile phone needs to be brought. So with a mobile phone means that I have to use headphones. I have shared my needs and opinions on Bluetooth headsets in another article. It feels like a wired headset will be fluent when it is bound to exercise. In order to balance the needs of all, of course, a lightweight and wireless Bluetooth headset is the best choice.

Wear comfort

As a sports headset, I think BOSE Soundsport wireless can only be considered good, not excellent! First of all, it will be heavier than many wireless Bluetooth sports headphones on the market.

First set the initial value of the scale to zero.

Bose soundsport wireless weighs 22.8g.

The Jabra ROX weighs 20.4g.

Jaybird X2 Bluebuds weighs 15.6g.

The weight of a pair of 7 batteries is about 25g.

The weight of a one-corner coin is 3.2g.

Volume control: In terms of volume, perhaps in order to integrate better sound units and other components, to provide users with better sound quality. All Bose SoundSport wireless's appearance is relatively large.

Bose SoundSport wireless is compared with a dime. It's a little bigger than a 1-point hard drive. Put on the most common coins and hope to give a reference to friends who want to start.

Comparison of Jaybird X2 Bluebuds and Diagonal Coins.

Several of the more commonly used Bluetooth headsets are compared.

With the small clips at the back, the stethoscope effect is greatly reduced and can be basically ignored during exercise.

2. Bluetooth stability

During the running and cycling process, the mobile phone is placed in a belt and the Bluetooth performance is fairly stable without too many disconnections. It's weird to put it on the desktop, and the probability of disconnection is higher than that... This is very strange!

3. Anti-sweat level

As Bose's first wireless Bluetooth headset, I have been paying attention since I launched it. If you have to say that there is any scruples about buying this headset, the anti-sweat level is a concern. As a sports headset that will deal with sweat for a long time, the first batch of products will burst into serious sweating defects. Basically, the poor users of the first batch of users have basically had this problem. This is very bad. I would even like to ask, before the promotion of the Bose official listing, is there no corresponding team to test it?

So for this problem, after several attempts, I finally contacted BOSE's official technical team. The communication is as follows: For the first issue of sweating, they actually did not receive relevant internal notices. When problems occur, non-human quality issues can be directly replaced within one year of warranty. The technical team also told me that the new version does not include the wired version of the soundsport, which is absolutely absent in China. Then the second batch of headphones will be distributed in September, then if there is no similar problem with this headset, they have to get the goods before they can verify.

4. Easy operation

The operation of the Bluetooth headset is basically focused on the small button of the three buttons. The common operations are as follows:

The power on button, long press the power on and press the voice to report the battery status when it is turned off; when it is powered on, short press voice will prompt the Bluetooth connection status; double click to switch the connection device.

Pause/Play button, click Pause, double-click to switch a song, press 3 times to jump back to the previous song, long press to call out siri. Here I must mention that the headset's line control is really hard enough! To use force to operate, there was no reaction at several times when running, and it should not be in place. It can be said that feel bad!

5. Life

The volume is set to about 60%-70%, using about 5-6 hours, in line with the official data.

6. Sports experience

For me personally, Bose SoundSport is more suitable for wearing when running under 10 kilometers (about 60 minutes), according to the normal pace, about 5-30 kilometers is about 25-30 minutes. This also means that each ear is running at a weight of about 12g (equivalent to about four 1-corners), and after one hour of running, I will feel that this headset is a bit heavier, and the ear will start to feel obvious pain.

appendix:

Communication with BOSE China Technology Team:

1. For the first issue of sweating, they actually did not receive relevant internal notice. As for the problem, non-human quality problems can be directly replaced within one year of warranty. The technical team also told me that the new version does not include the wired version of the soundsport, which is absolutely absent in China.

2. The second batch of headsets will be distributed in September. If there is no similar sweating problem, they will have to get the goods before they can verify.

3. This headset uses a Bluetooth 4.2 model and supports NFC.

4. The earphones are basically produced in China (Zhuhai, Dongguan, etc.), and transported back to the United States for testing, packaging, packaging, and shipping.

The most common issues related to Bluetooth headsets in this article:

Q: What is the stethoscope effect of the Bluetooth headset?

A: Simply speaking, it is caused by the shaking and friction of the headphone cable.

Q: What is the workflow of the Bluetooth headset?

A: Digital source → Decoding → Bluetooth encoding → Wireless transmission → Bluetooth decoding → Digital-to-analog conversion → Power amplification → Headphone.

Q: What difference does Bluetooth 4.2 from Bose Soundsport wireless have compared to previous Bluetooth 4.0, Bluetooth 3.0, and Bluetooth 2.1?

A: Simply speaking, Bluetooth 4.2 has lower power consumption, faster transmission speed, and lower transmission error rate than Bluetooth 4.0. Now the common audio source file has a bit rate of 320 kbps or more. If it is a lossless audio source, this bandwidth needs 1411.2 kpbs. The Bluetooth 1.0 transmission bandwidth is only about 748~810kpbs. Bluetooth 2.0 is optimized for three times the transmission speed, and reduces energy consumption and improve noise immunity. Bluetooth 3.0 is faster than 2.0 mainly in speed, transmission speed is increased by 8 times, transmission rate is about 24Mbps, and power consumption is not improved. Bluetooth 4.0 upgrades ultra-low power consumption over the previous generation, password-free pairing, multiple device connections (2), and long transmission distance (100 meters). However, the development of 4.0 transmission bandwidth is still only 1Mbps, which is one of the main reasons for the inability of Bluetooth headset sound quality.

Finally, in view of the time, more digital technology products are expected to be used in the later stages of the discussion. We welcome everyone to have more exchanges. If there are doubts and happen to be in the field of my concern, I will spare no effort to give everyone advice or accept advice, and even if there are certain values ​​of friendless selfless praise, I will be more hard-working and thankful.
