Customer Ratings & Reviews

way over priced and honestly its not great. the sound is meh and they fall off a lot

The innovation of how to hold os wonderful Surely next generation will have better ambient cancel mic

Inside the box is the ear buds themselves, charging case, charging cable, and warranty/safety informational guide. There is a quick start guide (QR code) on the inside of the opening of the box and thankfully I noticed before the box was thrown in the recycle bin. First Impression - These wireless buds sport a unconventional shape, but an undeniably extraordinary sound. QR Code/Quick Start - The quick start guide is very helpful in giving a move vivid description of how to put the headphones on, updates the firmware, lets you customize the key bindings of the buttons and equalizer/sound controls. I definitely recommend downloading the app. Open Earbuds/Comfort - Right out of the box, the buds stunned and left an impression as I personally had never used wireless headphones with such a design, external and hanging from the edge of the ear. Though I was certainly skeptical, the design has a comfort I’d never expected. They also don’t move much, despite being held on by not but their own countered weight. Strange design aside, they were quite easy to get used to as they weigh nothing and feel like even less. If not for the music, you could easily forget the buds are there. Sound/Calls - The sound most certainly sets the bar for wireless headphones. There’s an immense amount of base, and despite the design they do block out quite a bit of external sound. So much in fact, half volume seems to be plenty, even perhaps too loud, which is a first for a fan of loud music like myself. Also vice versa the way the buds rest allow for you to listen to the area around while the music is low for some ambience or perhaps motivation on a jog. Calls are extremely clear, and the microphone seems to capture sound well. Battery Life - The battery life was not included on the box, but they seem to last around 10-12 hours from a full charge, and charge twice in their case. It took two days of listening before the buds finally indicated a low battery, and the charge was relatively short, maybe 10 or so minutes for the buds in the case and 20 for the case. The case lets you know the charge status of each bud with individual indicators, as well as an indicator for the case itself. The only issue I could find with the headphones, was a sort of glitch that disabled my ability to change the volume on my phone once the headphones were connected. Restarting the music streaming app I was using seemed to fix it, while be it temporary as it is a reoccurring thing, so it may just be the streaming app itself and not the headphones. They are also magnetic, which goes for most earbuds, but the magnet on these is quite strong and gave me a startle when I discovered pair of earrings I was not aware were also magnetic. Overall, I am highly impressed with the design, the sound and the comfort of these headphone and I would highly recommend to friends and family.

Love these earbuds. Open ear so I can hear my surroundings and listen to my music too. One thing though, if you wear a mask it gets caught on the elastic when removing the mask. Just be aware that when removing mask it will get caught and thrown off your ear.

The best purchase I could have made. I love these for when I’m at work or even just a run. I can still hear what’s going on what’s around me and still enjoy some good music.

This is my 4th pair in 9 months and they still don't work, I've only been able to exchange them because I have a warranty this is the second time I've had to pay 66.00 for a two year warranty they have never worked unfortunately this time I have reached out to Bose to see if they can help me if not every 10 days I'll be exchanging them out My 1st purchase was 12/24 I was within my return policy so I returned them got busy and missed the return period so I was stuck with them or pay another 66.00 so I decided to wait hoping they may come out with a new generation of them then I would upgrade but after 8 mos with using them and no new generation insight I decided to pay the 2nd 66.00 to keep the warranty for another years hoping these would work but nope still sound muffled so l exchange them out for another new pair and they still don't work, so if Bose is not able to help me then Best Buy where I brought them from needs to figure something out or they will see me every 10 day returning these Bose ear buds if they dont work.

Best music quality but not phone calls. Attaches to the ears very good.

They are not very loud in a loud environment but in quieter settings I absolutely love them. The call quality is lacking a little

Did not fit in my ears correctly ..kept falling out .. would give 5 if they fit !!

Good for comfort and laying in bed bad for everything else. Mic is poor for calls in general unless in a completely quiet environment. I am hoping it can be fixed via update but not hopeful

I was a bit skeptical due to fact that they don’t fit completely in your ear as my other bose ear buds did, but I have to admit that I’m very happy with these and the fact that I can still hear a bit even with them in my Ear.

Cool design, not remotely practical. It do not work for me at all. I went to the car, tried them, went back and returned them. They look sleek but i don’t know who they would even work for.

The volume is good and bakanced and its good for people who wan5 to avoid having tenatious when they are 30

Couldn't always hear a caller in every situation and they couldn't hear me. They are very comfortable though.

People tell me they hear an echo when talking to them. Definitely not recommended for the gym. You will hear everything. They are good for traveling or for studying. Excellent battery life.

bought a pair for my wife. she loves them too. work great

The sound quality is outstanding. However they hurt my ear lobe after just one hour of use. Hated to do it, but had to return

I got this Bose Open earbuds on Dec 15-2025, They stopped working on Jan 28-2026, I went to BestBuy in Odessa TX on 2/3/2026. After they checked my earbuds, they told me I have to pay $40 restocking fee or I have to file a claim on Bose Website. With these expensive earbuds you think you would use them for long time, the answer would be “NO” I only used them for 1 month and a half. I would not recommend anyone buying these Bose Open earbuds.

This is the worst pair of Bose I ever purchased. The volume on these is worse than a 15-dollar pair off amazon.

Sooo much better than I expected. Let's me zone out but still be aware of my surroundings.
