    These beat any ear buds

    I am a person with small ear canals and cant wear the ones that go into your ear. I’ve tried JBL, MPOW, Apple even alexa buds. none stay in my ear. These just clip to my ear, and dont fall off AT ALL, great for the active person. I can listen to music, watch movies and take calls, even ask “hey siri” to ignore a call or make a call. The bad side, call quality isnt all that great but who makes calls nowadays, its texting or emails! Love these so much Im buying two more pair for my kids so i dont have them tell me the headset hurts their head!

    Love the sound and light weight! It’s great that I can hear my music and the environment around me. Doesn’t have the buzzing like tradition ear pods

    They get a little slippery if you get really sweaty, but other than that they sound awesome and last a full 8 hour shift. I can actually hear what everyone is saying to me.

    These buds are amazing. Lightweight and they basically hook onto your ear and not into your ear canal, which always gave me pain after a while.

    The sound when listening to music is good, but the microphone is very bad. Every time I get on the phone with someone, they tell me it sounds like I am going in and out with sound. I would not recommend for the price.

      Hi there, thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad to hear you’re enjoying the sound quality when listening to music. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are equipped with two microphones in each earbud, and wearing them properly can greatly improve call quality. Blocked microphones may cause poor sound quality for the listener on the other end of the call. Please ensure the microphones are not obstructed by headwear and that the earbuds are positioned correctly on each ear.

      We’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing difficulty with call quality, and we’d like to help improve your experience. You can check out this helpful link for more information: https://bose.life/4lneLeG

    They are okay, having a lot of connectivity issues. Constantly having sound cut in and out. My ears don’t hurt but would be nice to not have the connectivity issues

      Thanks for your feedback! The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are a completely new kind of audio wearable — delivering premium sound through a cuff-shaped design that doesn’t cover your ear.

      If you're experiencing connectivity issues or audio cutting in and out, here are some troubleshooting steps you can try.

    I bought these as a christmas gift for my mom because she has a hard time with regular ear buds hurting her ears and is not a fan of over the ear headphones either. These clip onto the side of your ear and dont sit down inside eliminating the uncomfortably she experiences with traditional buds. She will even forget she’s wearing them. She absolutely loves them.

    I think that this is an amazing idea that Bose has come up with as far as design. However, the technology of the earbuds when it comes to talking on the phone is crap! it sounds like the person is far away, muffled, and there are even times that I cannot hear the person. I wanted to return these because for the money I feel like it should all flow!! Whether I am listening to music or speaking on the phone the sound quality should be considering the brand and again the money. Unfortunately Best Buy has a 15 day return policy (which is stupid) and I could not return this product, so now I am stuck with an expensive product that I don't want. I would have just purchased headphones or a speaker from this brand instead! I guess I expected so much more out of Bose!
