    Bose SoundTrue around-ear headphones II - Apple devices, Charcoal

    • More so an informational note, like some other reviews I received my new headphones and the right ear would cut out
    • It periodically cuts out sound in the right ear, and I have to jiggle the connector to restore the balance
    • but it's just too bulky and can't keep it on longer than 30 minutes since my ears get too hot in it

    • the right ear doesn't work.
    • After about 20 uses of these headphones over a 2.5 year period, the right ear does not produce sound anymore
    • I'm not an audiophile and probably don't have the best ear for super technically-inclined
    • but then after 30 minutes your ears start to hurt
    • I can vouch for the comfort of these headphones - no hot ears, no head pressure, perfect texture

    • Only the left ear worked when I plugged them in- about thirty seconds after that the right ear cut out too
    • I have a pair of over ear headphones that have worked great for a

    • they killed my ears after about a hour of listening on
    • If I twist the audio jack back and forth either left or right ear works, not both
    • The one thing I find a bit of a challenge is how hot my ears get if I wear them longer than 20 mins
    • VERY comfortable.... but sound is lacking.... especially after about 2 hours of listening, the left ear speaker stopped working... just as others have also said about their experience with these
    • THE RIGHT EAR DOESN'T WORK OUT OF THE
    • Earphone pads VERY soft, and no signs of deterioration after 6 months (unlike my previous Bose over-ears with over-ear pads that died after 2 months)
    • Only works one ear at a time
    • The slightest touch of the cord and the right ear goes out.
    • Fresh out of the box, they only play sound through the left ear
    • Mine showed up with the right ear non-functional, tested on a couple products
    • cuz it wont hurt your ears when you listening to heavy bass music for longer time

    • Uh, lets just say, after laying it on the ground next to my pc for a couple weeks, no sound would come out the right ear
    • Right ear doesn`t really work, I`m very dissapointed in bose products
    • The sound on the right ear went in and out with the slightest touch of the the aux cord

    • I had an electric engineer friend over to help me and still no sound from the right ear speaker at all
    • They keep my ears warm on cold days too.
    • I have purchased their over-ear noise canceling headphones and sport in-ear headphones in the past and have loved them both - unamatched sound quality and quite durable
    • They are great though in the winter to keep my ears warm.
    • Only used 4 or 5 times before the right ear stopped working.
    • The pads are comfortable, don't warm up your ears, and they reduce ambient sound a bit (a bit)

    • The sound on the right ear went in and out with the slightest touch of the the aux cord
    • As stated in multiple reviews, there is no sound in the right ear
    • The right ear phone doesn't work, strange that quality checks aren't performed on products from such big firms.
    • no sound coming out of the right ear.
    • The slightest movement & I lose connection in the right ear, then I have to jack with it to get it connected again
    • Or if you wanted to attach a cord, that's possible, on either the left or right ear
    • The cable end that goes into the headphones requires some elementary school dexterity to plug, so I understand why so many idiots, ehm I mean reviewers, complain about "the right ear not working" (they didn't put the cable
    • But now at the 6 month mark there is absolutely no sound coming from the right ear
    • So one day, I was listening to my music, and the right ear just cut out
    • My Bose did'nt have sound from the right ear from the beginning
    • My last headphones warmed up my ears too much and these take a long time to get to that point
    • I have what some would regard as golden ears.
    • I loved these headphones since I first got them in December, but I noticed right away that if the line-in chord wasn't fully pushed into the headphones there would be no sound coming out of the right ear
    • However, only one ear works at a time
    • The replaceable ear pads are filled with memory foam, making these significantly more comfortable than most headphones out there
    • Love the Bose ear headphones.
    • One ear is completely dead two months in
    • Earbuds typically hurt my ears after listening for 30
    • but then I know that would ruin the seal for the best sound quality...it just matters whats more important to you: not hearing anything else around you or sweaty stinky ears
    • But my ears dont sweat and it works with my iphone
    • The ear phones fold so they can lie flat and can be stored and carried in the case which has a soft interior with stiff sides (so they do not get crushed) and the case has light padding on the exterior and closes with a zipper
    • and I wound up returning them because the cord would pull out just a millimeter and it would lose sound in the right ear cup
    • The fit is nice and the headphones are labeled L for the left ear and R for the right ear.
    • when she got home and sure enough, twist the headphone jack one way, the sound was only in the right ear, keep twisting and it switched only to the left.
    • The speakers inside the headphones are angled so it fits ears well
    • This pair gets my ears so hot , like all other around ear headphones.
    • I have owned and the hot ear thing might be a universal issue
    • It's very comfortable to wear for hours, mine is more than 4 hours at a time when I am working on projects, does not hurt my ears
    • I have the wireless around ear unit as well.
    • I bought these during the Prime Day sale since I love the Bose AE2i's which still work great (ear cushions wear out way too quickly though)
    • H however less than four months after purchase the right ear gave out due to manufacturer error
    • Only the left ear worked
    • The sound was "tinny", like a really cheap mini-speaker and only played in the left ear
    • A lot of times the "puffy Part" is not big enough, so it ends up pushing against your ears, and after an hour or so of wear your poor ears HURT
    • They fit perfectly around my ears, fit securely around my head so they didn't move around and didn't hurt my ears at all, even with my glasses on
    • Great product, it arrived as described and works as it should.
