Did you try with the various tips that come with it? The smaller tips don't provide a good seal and they sound more tinnier. But they are comfortable to wear because of the smaller tips. When I change them to the middle or big tips it seems to sound much better and richer. Just my observation from the previous and the current Buds+.

In ear monitors are extremely dependent an getting a good ear canal seal. Without that you will completely lose the bass response. If you're not familiar with using buds I suggest you Google how to fit them to your ears and find a YouTube demo or illustrated instructions.
Most buds, including these, come with multiple sizes for you to find the ones that best for your ears.

Your expectations might be a little high for a set of buds in this price range. I've watched a few reviews and while they all say great things about them they do mention the lack of great sound. I don't think you'll get great bass unless you drop over $200 on a pair.
Like the others have said though, a proper seal will definitely improve the sound quality.

I agree but I was trying to be nice! 
They're crap. Get a real set of headphones and move on.
Did you make sure Dolby Atmos was enabled. I found mine was not by default. Turned it on while using the Buds+ and made a night and day difference.

Go to Dolby Atmos settings in quick pull down panel and adjust to music see if that helps , usually on auto

I didn't know there were separate profiles under that setting. Learn something new each day! Thank you for this!

Not really. The Sony WF1000s are stellar and they are discounted on Amazon. A steal for $198.

They are fine if you are getting it as part of pre order credit. Paying $150 plus tax is little steep, I would say look for sale on local marketplace to snag one cheaper since lots of them will be on sale market because people trying to sell the pre order gifts.
There's different versions of the WF-1000X, if not the brand new ones, stay away they're crap too. One side would always cut out, the battery life was short, and sound quality sucked. I haven't tried the newest ones but what can you expect from electronics so tiny trying to reproduce hi fidelity audio over a compressed signal that makes it sound like a 128kbps mp3 before it even gets to the buds? Really the only solution I've experienced so far is the LDAC codec. If they're not using LDAC then the signal is getting bastardized before the drivers in the buds/headphones has a chance to reproduce the sound.
The only acceptable sound I've heard over bluetooth is the Sony WH-1000XM3 using the LDAC codec. I even like them better than my wired Beyerdynamic DT770 Pros running on a dedicated DAC and one of the most well regarded headphone AMPs, the JDS Atom. If you're about sound quality, I would stay away from all wireless buds at this point and wait a few generations for better codecs and tech - it's really just not there yet.
