Great open ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable for long term wearing. First open ear type buds i've gotten and I love them. I still need noise cancelling buds for things like mowing, but these are great for exercise/daily headphones.

Give them a chance
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Sound, but Falls Short of High Expectations I recently had the opportunity to try out the open Bose headphones, and while the sound quality is undeniably impressive, I found myself somewhat underwhelmed given the high expectations I had for this renowned brand. I ultimately gave them a three star rating, as I felt they didn't quite meet the lofty standards I had set for them. Of course, this assessment is purely subjective and based on my personal opinion. One of the standout features of these headphones is their sound quality. The audio is crisp, clear, and immersive, allowing me to enjoy my favorite music with a level of detail that truly enhances the listening experience. The open design also provides a more natural soundstage, which I appreciated during my music sessions. However, where these headphones fell short for me was in their overall performance compared to the hype surrounding the Bose brand. I had expected a more exceptional build quality and a more robust set of features considering the premium price point. I found the design to be somewhat lacking in terms of comfort, with the ear feeling a bit too snug during extended wear. Furthermore, I encountered some issues with stability, which was surprising given Bose's reputation for producing reliable audio devices. The battery life also didn't quite live up to my expectations, requiring more frequent charging than I would have liked. In conclusion, while the open Bose headphones deliver impressive sound quality, they ultimately left me wanting more in terms of comfort, features, and reliability. It's important to note that my review is based on my personal expectations and experiences, so others may have a different opinion. Overall, I gave them a three star rating, reflecting my mixed feelings about their performance relative to the brand's reputation.

Posted .Hello, it's awesome to hear you feel that the sound on these is impressive. You can find guidance here to ensure you get the best comfort from the earbuds https://support.bose.com/s/display-articles?productId=01t8c00000OlcI5AAJ&articleId=ka08c000001brKkAAI&language=en_US.
The earbuds should have a battery life when Immersive Audio Off: 7.5 hours and when it's off : 4.5 hours. Plus the case with 100% charge can provide a further 19.5 hours to these. There is guidance here to ensure you get the best battery life from these earbuds https://support.bose.com/s/how-to-page?prodId=01t8c00000OlcI5AAJ&type=HowTo&category=battery&index=3&language=en_US

Stays on and comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I brought these earbuds for travel since I’ve seen so many pods lost on airplanes. They stay on and are super comfortable. Only issue someone might have is they don’t completely block out ambient sound.

Ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The airbuds tend to pinch the ear after wearing for 30-60 minutes. Also have had a couple times where the right and left buds take awhile to sync to each other

Posted .Hello, Scott. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, and we’re grateful that you chose the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. We’re sorry to hear that you’ve been experiencing discomfort after wearing them for 30–60 minutes.
We highly recommend ensuring that the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are positioned correctly according to the proper wearing guidelines. Additionally, we suggest avoiding the use of other accessories, such as headbands or glasses resting on the same area, as these can create additional pressure and contribute to pinching.

The best buds ever
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am a "loyal" Bose fan. But I must say when I first purchased the Ultra Open-Earbuds I was a little skeptical especially when I was having trouble placing them behind my ears. But after I got the hang of it (they are very light weight) I was a believer. As always with Bose the sound is great. These buds are so light I have to keep placing my hand to my ears to make sure they are still there. I wish they came in other colors.

The first earbuds I can wear
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have tried a lot of ear buds without luck and could only wear regular headphones. I wear glasses, have multiple ear piercings and these are awesome. The sound is wonderful and I am so glad I splurged on these.

Could be the best product to buy!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had my doubts because of the price when Best Buy did their winter offers I could not refuse to buy it. Now I understand why people only use this brand (it is another level of quality)
