Uncomfortable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very uncomfortable. I love the concept of an ear cuff headphone but the actual speak part that goes into the shell of the ear is plastic, hard and uncomfortable. It should have been padded with some sort of silicone. I’m constantly adjusting them up and down the shell of my ear bc they start to hurt and need moved to a new position, but it’s usually no longer than 20 mins before they’re bothering my again. I’ve had the less than 2 months and the left one shorts in and out. I’m hoping I can return them. The cost is too high for them to not be more comfortable, I think a redesign is needed.

Posted .Hello Mira! Thank you for sharing your feedback. That’s certainly not the experience we want you to have, and we understand your concern, especially when you’ve been excited about the ear‑cuff design.
Our Ultra Open Earbuds were designed to let you enjoy your music while keeping your ears open to the world around you. To achieve this, we engineered a lightweight, ear‑cuff–inspired shape that gently grips the ear while housing our Bose OpenAudio technology. This allows the earbuds to project rich, immersive sound without blocking the ear canal, all while keeping the design as light and unobtrusive as possible.
Comfort can vary from person to person, and sometimes a small adjustment can make a big difference. You can try sliding the earbuds slightly up or down the outer part of your ear to find a position that feels more natural and reduces pressure. This can also help with sound balance and avoiding interference with jewelry.
For step‑by‑step guidance on wearing and adjusting your earbuds, you can follow our full guide here: https://bose.life/47yqhOs
We hope these tips help improve your experience so you can get back to enjoying your earbuds comfortably.

Bose ultra open ear
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality is not that great plus the fit is not great as well. I am disappointed for these to be a Bose product and expected it the comfort , perform and over all sound quality to match their other products. The best one so far would be Shokz.

Disappointed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I purchased these to replace my Bose quiet comfort ultra gen 1. I really wanted to like these. First the right ear shows 10-30% less than the left ear even though they both show 100% when I begin to listen. No one can hear me when they call. Also the sound is great if I hold the earbuds to my ear but move away when I release them. Then I can't hear the music well at all. Taking these back. Very disappointed.
