A different way of hearing the world
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these as gifts for family members who like to go on outdoor walks. The ability for the ear buds to not actively block outside noise is great. The only minir annoyance is thst the battery level between L and R is different. One will go to 90% before the other, but ultimately does not impact performance. Would recommend!
I would recommend this to a friendAmazing after the first week
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these! However for the first week of wearing them they were extremely uncomfortable. Also when u have the volume all the up, other people are bound to hear it. But over all, the volume is good and its nice to not have to take them off or pause the music when someone approaches you.

Nice Try Bose, try harder
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am a big Bose guy. You name it i probaly got it. When i saw these i could not wait to pick these up. Bose need to go back to the drawing board with these. I know they are open air but the aound should not suffer becaue of that. I purchaed these on a Friday and by Monday morning they were returned. The sound is very shallow and when you are on the phone people complained about me sounding like im across the street. Yes i had them on correctly. I was in an office environment iy was better but the mall forget about it!! The design is fire. I think the next ones will be better but for now i had to pump the brakes on these.

They are ok...
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To listen to music they are great but to have a conversation no. The other person will not hear you at all and I believe this is an issue with this earbuds anyway. But overall good for listening to music.

Sore ears Had to return
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tried these Bose ultra open ear buds and the sound was what you’d expect from Bose but they made my ears very sore after only one day of use. They squeezed the cartilage of the ear which drove me crazy and after a few minutes made my ear sore. I kept wearing them and rotated one ear at a time for my meetings all day thinking I may have just needed to break them in, but both ears were just so sore. I liked that they stayed outside of the ear and the sound was amazing but I had to return because they were not comfortable for me. I tried them in different places by sliding them up and down the ear but that didn’t help.
