    For Bose I expect much better. The quality when trying to talk on the phone is terrible. Cuts in and out and sounds very far away for the person on the other end. Would not recommend at all and would return if I could.

      Hello Melissa! Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We truly appreciate you sharing your feedback about the call quality, especially the microphones cutting in and out and sounding far away to the person on the other end. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds include two microphones in each earbud, and proper positioning plays a big role in how well they pick up your voice. If the microphones are blocked by hair, headwear, or if the earbuds aren’t clipped on securely, callers may hear you as distant or inconsistent.

      Please ensure the microphones are unobstructed and that the earbuds are positioned correctly on each ear, this can noticeably improve clarity during phone calls.

    Music is good but phone conversations are horrible!!! Buds do not keep a charge as long as stated. I can have the left bud at 50% and the right at 10% about tondie. Both are charged/recharged and worn together. I have other Bose products and have been very happy with them with no issues. Very dissapointed and feel ripped off with these buds.

    These are the worst ear pods I’ve ever used. While trying to make a call No one can understand a word I say. Thought maybe it was just a defective pair . I exchanged them for another pair. SAME PROBLEM

      Hi JamesH, thank you for sharing your experience with us. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are designed with two microphones in each earbud to help improve clarity, but performance can sometimes be affected by fit, positioning, or obstruction. Please ensure the microphones are not blocked by hair, clothing, or headwear, and that the earbuds are positioned correctly. Updating the firmware through the Bose app can also help resolve microphone performance issues.

      We’re truly sorry to hear that both pairs of earbuds you tried had the same issue with call quality. We’d love to help you improve your calling experience with the earbuds. Here’s a helpful guide you can check out: https://bose.life/46PlXdr

    These headphones are amazing for music listening. But these are probably the worst head phones i have owned to talk with. I had them replaced by bose but the new ones had the exact same issue. The person on the other end was barely able to hear me.

    Call quality is absolute trash. After 3 weeks of trying to make them work, it was too late to return them. Everything else is okay but the call quality appears to be something a senior manager decided to ignore to push the product out. No way and engineer let this slide without being overridden. Price point vs comp at this quality level is not okay.

    I love the concept of being able to listen to music and hear the world around you. The item itself was light weight and stayed on while moving around but after a while of wearing it my ears would hurt. The item put alot of pressure in one spot hurting me . The audio wasnt too bad but using it for calls was a no go. There was constant complaints that the other person on the call couldnt hear me. I ended up returning it. For the price it wasnt worth it . I expected better.
