The Bose U.S. Triple Black SoundSport Free (part 774373-0010) is an earlier tip-based sports earbud; Bose’s guide places its StayHear+ Sport tip at the canal opening and rates the headphones IPX4. This review classifies the documented feature/control set as no-ANC, while noting Bose’s reviewed materials do not directly state “no ANC.” The case is a separate, unrated component.

Assessment scenario: Earlier sealed in-ear listening, no ANC, IPX4 earbuds-only
An editorial assessment scenario for someone who is open to earlier models, wants a sealed in-ear shape, does not want active noise cancellation, and requires IPX4 on the earbuds without transferring that rating to the case. This is not a statement of the visitor’s intent.
Explore this buying guide ↗Why consider this model?
- Bose’s owner guide describes a StayHear+ Sport tip at the ear-canal opening, with a stabilizing wing under the ear ridge; this supports the sealed-in-ear category, not a promise of personal comfort or seal.
- Bose’s owner guide assigns IPX4 to the headphones and separately describes the charging case without giving it that rating. The earbuds-only boundary matches this assessment scenario.
- Bose support dates SoundSport Free to 2017–2020. Bose’s full model launch and owner-guide feature/control inventories do not list ANC; the no-ANC classification is an explicit editorial inference, not a direct Bose quote.
Tradeoffs to weigh
- This model is earlier. Bose’s up-to-five-hour earbud and two-case-recharge figures are historical manufacturer maxima; they do not predict the battery condition or runtime of a used unit.
- The reviewed Bose documentation says USB cable charging through a USB connector but does not identify USB-C or establish Qi support. This page does not recommend the case for either USB-C-only or wireless-required case charging.
- Bose says not to swim, shower or submerge the headphones and notes water resistance may diminish with wear. No rating for the charging case is established.
- No hands-on fit, sound, call or battery test was performed. Product image evidence establishes appearance, not seller condition, authenticity, complete package or current stock.
Check these before ordering
- Match the U.S. Triple Black part 774373-0010 and the SoundSport Free model name; do not substitute the cabled SoundSport Wireless, 2020 Sport Earbuds or Sport Open.
- Ask the seller to demonstrate both earbuds and the case charging from full, inspect both charging sides and contacts, and verify the exact case USB connector before purchase.
- Check that the case, supplied cable, medium fitted StayHear+ Sport tips and additional small/large tips are present and undamaged.
- Confirm seller identity, authenticity evidence, condition, return period and warranty. Do not treat Bose’s historical runtime claim or sale window as a promise about an individual offer.
