Features
Overview: The Bose MIE2i mobile in-ear headset is designed
specifically for use with select Apple iPods and iPhones. The Bose MIE2i mobile
headset lets you take
calls and switch back to your music from your iPhone with one-touch of a
button. The Bose MIE2i also provides basic music playback control of your
compatible iPod or iPhone. The Bose mobile in-ear headset provides quality Bose sound from your
iPhone while offering one-touch switching between your music and your
phone calls, using the inline remote and microphone. The inline remote also
provides basic playback controls of your iPod's or iPhone's music tracks. The Bose mobile
in-ear headset offers a comfortable fit design with three sizes of contoured
ear-tips. The Bose mobile in-ear headset is compatible with the Apple iPod
and iPhone (select models).
TriPort Acoustic Structure: Bose proprietary TriPort
technology allows the drivers of the Bose In-Ear (MIE2i) headphones to create
deep lows while keeping the headphones small and lightweight. The result is
comfortable headphones that deliver full, balanced low notes of your music.
Enhanced Acoustic Design: The Bose In-Ear (MIE2i) headphones
utilize an enhanced acoustic design which incorporates a new port to help music
sound smoother and more natural.
In-Ear Design: The Comfortable in-ear design gives you
earbud-style headphones with soft silicone ear-tips that rest gently and
securely in your ears. The headphones are marked with left (L) and right (R)
markings for easy identification.
Silicone Ear-Tips: The Bose headphones come supplied with "StayHear"
silicone ear-tips in three sizes (S/M/L) to help assure a more accurate fit
that's comfortable and stable. Proprietary "StayHear" silicone ear-tips offer
greater in-ear stability during exercise and other active sports. Advanced
materials and design allow the tips to nestle inside the bowl of the ear, while
also naturally conforming to the ear's upper ridge. "StayHear" tips also are
designed to remain more securely on the headphone itself. Overall, they provide
a better on-the-go listening experience.
Note: Do not attempt to wear the headphones without the
ear-tips.
In-Line Remote Control: The cable included with the MIE2i
headphones has an in-line remote control and microphone compatible with select
Apple devices. The in-line remote provides basic music playback functions for
your compatible iPod, iPhone, or iPad. The in-line microphone supports
hands-free communication for your iPhone and initiates Voice Control on your
compatible Apple device.
- Hands-Free Talking: When your iPhone rings, just push the
integrated answer/end button on the headset's inline remote to pause your music and take
the call from your iPhone. The omnidirectional mic on the back of the inline
remote picks up
your voice clearly, so there is no need to hold it to your mouth. The other
party is heard through the headset's earbuds. You can end the call with one more
touch of the button, and your music continues from where you left off. The
built-in in mic also supports voice control from your compatible iPhone.
- Music Control: The Bose MIE2i mobile headset offers volume,
track selection, and voice application features for your compatible iPod/iPhone
through the inline remote. You can adjust volume up/down, play/pause
tracks, skip tracks (forward/backward), fast forward/rewind within a track, and
change playlists.

Each pair undergoes rigorous testing to meet Bose standards for performance and
