Best earbuds so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality and features are excellent and better than most other earbuds. The design is what makes these truly amazing. These are the first earbuds that do not hurt my ears after 30 minutes. I also like that I can still hear my surroundings if the volume is adjusted appropriately to what is going on around me.

Great feel, poor sound
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These ear buds are great when you are sitting in a quiet room. They are also good for walking as they don't make the thumping sound in your ear every time you take a step. Not very good when there is noise. Horrible on an airplane. I will say that they are very comfortable, I often forget I have them on.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoy the comfort and performance of the earbuds in quiet settings and while walking. We understand your concerns about their performance in noisy environments. The Ultra Open Earbuds are designed with an open‑ear style so you can remain aware of your surroundings while outside. If you prefer to block out external noise, we recommend the QuietComfort Earbuds with noise cancellation, which help reduce distractions in noisy environments. For airplane use, Bose QuietComfort headphones with noise cancellation are the best option to ensure a more comfortable listening experience.

Excellent sound quality and bass for open ear buds. The immersive sound option is really cool. Phone calls work great too. I get like 3 good charges out of the bank.

An amazing problem solver for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Over the years I have used literally dozens of different earbuds from a wide variety of manufacturers as well as many aftermarket ear tips in the search for great sound with a proper fit and seal…my right ear canal is larger than my left so I always end up with a bad seal in my right ear. I’ve tried foam ear tips and while they work well the pressure they create in order to get a proper seal makes them uncomfortable for me after awhile. I have also tried several different open ear buds to solve my ear fit problem but the sound was always lacking in the bass department. The other day while browsing YouTube, the algorithm put a video for the Huawei ear clip in my feed and while not available in the U.S., I noticed that it was frequently compared to the Bose Ultra Open-Ears so down the rabbit hole I went and that brings us to this review. Let me begin by saying if you are wanting ANC these are not for you BUT if you want full rich sound with a comfortable fit while being able to talk with someone when needed without needing to take out your earbuds then the Bose Ultra Open-Ears should work perfectly…they are the solution that I have been looking for. Highs, mids and bass are all present providing a full rich sound ( not booming bass but more than enough for great sound) with a 3 band equalizer built into the app, allowing you to customize your preferred sound signature. The immersion mode widens the sound stage to provide depth to your music and the app even has head tracking as well as auto volume settings. As for comfort, after getting used to having the Open-Ears on ( think of wearing an ear cuff) you will forget they are even there as they provide the perfect amount of pressure to keep them in place without fear of losing them or being uncomfortable at all. I think I have finally found my perfect fit.

ALMOST perfect.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are both great, and not great at the same time. The greats- they STAY IN PLACE. These will not fall out or off while running, which is specifically why I bought them. They also sound wonderful! The not as great- They sometimes switch listening mode on their own, so the music will sound surround and full, then switch to a more transparent, dull sound all of the sudden. Sometimes the only fix is simply opening the Bose app then it correct itself, so unsure whats going on. Or I'll get a weird connection interference sound mid songs if other bluetooth devices are around it. Since this pair can be updated, hopefully these are software fixes. Once fixed this is a definitely 5 star pair of headphones.

Posted .Hey Matthew,
Many thanks for leaving your initial thoughts of the Ultra Open Earbuds! It's great to hear you chose this product for your music listening needs and it's fantastic to learn they have fit you well, especially when you've been exercising.
With your feedback regarding them switching automatically, this clearly isn't normal behavior and not something that is expected to happen so we'd encourage you to reach out to us so we can learn more about the problem. If it's happening randomly, I'd also suggest resetting the buds and setting them up as a new device to see if a fresh connection makes any changes to performance. You can find instructions for resetting the buds here: https://bose.life/4eSKFfe.

The BEST BUDS!!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish I’d made this purchase a lot sooner. The quality is clear, I thought I’d have an issue with the sound, by the pods sitting on my ear lobe, and not in my ear, no issues AT ALL! I got LITERAL sores in my ear from the Apple iPods. I am a REAL FAN, of all BOSE products.

Good overall, user error struggles
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound better than expected. They do squeeze my ear a little bit and slightly uncomfortable, but goes away after after a few minutes. The physical button on each earbud works as expected and easy to use. Used them at work, and laying down watching tv and no issues with them falling out or moving. Biggest difficulty I have experienced is putting both earbuds on and positioning them the same way, such that the speaker is the same direction and distance from my ear canal, which I did notice made a significant difference on how loud they are and how balanced the volume is between both earbuds.

Most Comfort, Least Call Quality
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm on my 11th pair of earbuds now, but i bought these as my 9th. I really loved the concept. I am active, always on call and often in loud environments (truck driver), where i need to keep an ear out for my surroundings. I will say, these are the most comfortable buds on the market. This is by far the best design for fit, ease of putting them on one handed and long term wear. They also sound phenomenal when playing music or books. At full volume, people around me could hear that i was listening to something, but they couldn't tell what. So there is an aspect of privacy there. However. The phone call quality is abysmal. These earbuds want to transmit every single noise, no matter how far away, and blare them at your recipient. When they do decide to transmit your own voice, they prioritize every other noise over it, so to your caller, you sound like you're stuck in a very noisy well. It is awful. And there is no fix. I keep them for 29 days trying to get them to work for my callers, because i loved them so much for my music. There is no positioning, setting, app or other fix to make calls bearable. If you're only using these for media, this is the best product you can buy. If you intend to place a phone call, similar $17 amazon open ear buds sound about the same to your recipient, and at times, better than these. On the 29th day, i was thinking that i was going to keep them for times when i just was listening to things and not making phone calls, while searching for another pair that would excel exclusively for calling. But then the case broke at the hinge. The lid no longer stayed on. What a bummer. I returned them to the store and bought 2 other branded headsets that both work significantly better for calls and are only slightly worse for media. You got so close Bose. But i really expected more out of a namebrand headset approaching $300.

Love them
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love them, I suffer from ear fatigue and have issues with things going in my ear. I almost for get they are on and with my dark hair it makes them nearly invisible. The only con I think Being on after a full day wearing non stop can hurt your ear a bit but nothing compared to the ear fatigue I use to get using in ear head phones or even ear head phones
