    It's little uncomfortable at first but you get use to it. No sound leaks out and i can hear the audio perfectly. Battery life lasts about 9 hours per earbud. The case battery lasted all week.

    Amazing audio quality considering they are not truly in my ears and the comfort is surprising as I forget they are even on. Great for any outdoor activity where you still want to hear your surroundings. Highly recommend!!!!

    I love the Bose Earbuds. I have the apple ear pods as well,which are also wonderful, but the sound from Bose and the fact that I can still hear cars or people talking while listening is wonderful. The fit is great and the quality is exceptional.

    These earbuds are so comfortable. I sometimes forget I’m wearing them. I use them as my headset for work as well as personal use. The sound quality is very good. You can still hear what’s going on around you which I really like. I would definitely recommend these.

    The sound quality and comfort is better than any other open earbud I have tried and it’s not even close. The main issue is the microphone and price. Quite frankly, the microphone is abysmal and by far its biggest performance weakness. The other major issue is it is way too expensive for a product like this when other open-ears are considerably cheaper. I ultimately returned it in favor of a more economical open-ear option.

      Hello Brad,

      It's great that you liked the sound quality and comfort of the earbuds. I understand you've returned the earbuds, but should you decide to try the earbuds again. I'd recommend ensuring that the earbuds are positioned correctly on the ear to get the best mic performance from the earbuds. We have a guide available to help with getting the best position of the earbuds here: https://bit.ly/4gKCK4z

      We'd also love to help should you try the earbuds again, please reach out: https://bose.life/contact

    How great these earbuds are! I purchased these for my wife, who is allergic to the silicone featured inside of normal earbuds. These buds don’t have silicone that sits in your ear, and instead, the speaker fires downward into your ear canal. The result is very interesting, because you can hear the music just as clearly as regular earbuds, but your ear are still open. I became so jealous of hers, that I actually purchased another pair for myself, and I love them! I still find myself using regular earbuds too, like when on a plane, because you can hear the music coming off these if you turn them up really high. However, for doing things around the house, or going walking, bike riding, etc, they are wonderful, because I can keep my ears open to listen for my kid, or cars. In some ways, these are the best sounding earbuds I’ve ever had. The bass is remarkable, and is just as good as my regular Bose earbuds.

    The battery lasts for days. I can truly hear things around me when listening to music, books or on a call. When on a call, I'm told it is crystal clear. Can you mow the grass and listen to something? No, but that isnt the purpose of these. Can you go on a run and feel better about hearing your surroundings while enjoying music or a book, yes.

    These are incredibly comfortable — so light you’ll forget you’re wearing them. But unless you're listening to spoken word, don’t bother. They have virtually no frequency range beyond mids, making them perfect for podcasts, audiobooks, and phone calls — and useless for music. They’re overpriced for what they deliver, especially with better options available. That said, I still love them for what they are: great background audio while I’m working around the house. Just know what you're buying — and only grab them on sale. Thanks, Bose, but these should cost half as much.

    Bought these to replace a pair of Gen 3 AirPods. The AirPods sounded good but they were too big for my ears and didn’t stay in very well. These Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are really great. They are super comfortable and have great sound quality. I can legitimately wear them all day. With them being an open ear design the sound quality does suffer a little bit if you push the volume to the max.

    These have great sound and are extremely comfortable; however, it does not make up for the poor connectivity, the terrible microphone and high cost. Go for shokz instead.

    I am impressed with these ear buds. I play tennis with them and the immersion sound is fabulous. I can be on the court and still hear players around me or the pro if in a clinic. I have always been a huge apple fan. Have the apple AirPod pro’s and they are great for sound isolation but there is no comparison to the sound if listening to music. I love these in the gym. I can have the immersion sound on not have to listen to the chatter of other members but can hear and speak to anyone that talks directly to me. Best of both worlds. I can run with them on and they are very comfortable. I watch movies in the house on my iPad and can still hear what’s going on around me but have great sound at the same time. The only down side for me is I can not use them for phone calls on a walk outside. Cars going past me drown out the other person speaking to me. If Im walking and just listening to music no problem the cars do not bother me but it’s not possible to have a conversation near a busy road. I will use my apple AirPods for that. They are a little on the expensive side but that can be said of all Bose products. I think they are worth it!
