How to Find Your Lost Bose Sport Earbuds in Minutes

The Bose Sport Earbuds were purpose-built for workouts with a StayHear Max tip design, but their IPX4 rating means they can survive sweat — not a downpour — and if dropped on a wet gym floor or running trail, corrosion could eventually kill the BLE signal. At 6.75g per earbud, they're among the heavier sport earbuds, which paradoxically makes them more likely to fall out during high-impact activities like running or box jumps. Their BLE 5.1 signal is detectable by EarBuddy at about 30 feet, and the compact case holds only 15 hours of total charge — the shortest in Bose's lineup — making fast retrieval critical.
