The sound is great especially for me who prefers to listen to music and also stay aware of my surroundings. I really appreciate the uniqueness of the design. When I’m on the phone it’s hard for family/friends to hear me sometimes especially if theres noise being made around me though that’s one thing that for sure needs to be improved. Otherwise, its nice to have. The battery life is great on them as well.

The sound is great and they don’t hurt my ears like others do. They feel really light.

This review is for the new Bose Open Earbuds Ultras. And just like all my other Bose devices these just feel like high end earbuds. I’ve only had them a few days but you can tell from the build quality they were made to last. They have very good sound quality. But the bass just isn’t the same as in ear earbuds or over the ear headphones. They use the same easy to use app as my other Bose headphones, so if you already have Bose stuff you don’t need a new app. So far the battery life has been great. I haven’t had to charge the case once yet. Using them a few hours each day and then keeping them in the case they have stayed charged the whole time I’ve had them. The new fit did take me a little while to get use to. But on the flip side you can hear what’s going on around you very well. So when out running/biking I can hear cars or trucks coming up from behind me. As to where I can’t at all with my other in ear earbuds. Also phone calls went very good. No one I talked with could tell I wasn’t just using my phones mic and speakers. All in all if you’re in the market for a new set of ear buds you should give these Bose open earbuds a try.

I havent found a single thing not to like about these earbuds . The design is innovative and perfect . I love the way it fits and feels. Sound has bass and crystal clear audio . And the calls have worked great for me . I will update my review if i find anything i dont like .

These Bose open earbuds are excellent and are definitely worth it! Bose never ceases to disappoint me especially regarding the quality of the sound that comes out of any of their products. These ones not only sound good, but for a new concept of having open earbuds, I believe Bose hit it right out of the park. As far as the style is concerned, it looks nice and futuristic, but I think they could’ve done better. The charging case is rounded so it can’t stand, and it’s a little bigger than other charging case. The open concept is what makes it stand out since not many others, if any, have this. “Clipping” the earbuds on the ears instead of inserting it is a game changer. The earbuds themselves are lightweight. If not for audio coming out, I don’t think I’ll remember putting them on. Regarding the quality of the sound, because these are open earbuds, you won’t hear the bass and other minute details as well as you normally would if you have earbuds that you insert in your ears. However, it’s Bose so they made sure it still produced excellent sound. The levels are well balanced as usual, including the bass, and the dialogue is still crisp when watching videos. There are a few things I don’t like about this, besides not being able to get the best sound since they’re open earbuds. The bluetooth connection is spotty, getting disconnected at times. Also, I’m not sure what the reason is, but sometimes, the sound gets staticky which is a minor issue. It gets fixed right away just by moving the earbuds. The features are a plus. The immersive audio is pretty cool. The sound really seems like it’s coming from somewhere else. Either it’s stationary or it’s moving with you. The battery life is long. I used it all day, and it lasted for more than six hours. Charging it was very quick. Because they’re open earbuds, there isn’t a noise cancelling feature which is fine by me. I prefer to be aware of my surroundings. Surprisingly, as loud as it can get, other people seemingly can’t hear what you’re listening to. Overall, I believe the pros outweigh the cons. These earbuds are great. I definitely recommend this especially if you’re someone active. These really don’t come off. I shook my head violently, and it still stayed in place. Once again, Bose came out with a great product.

Very comfortable and light. Sound quality is amazing

I was wary of these but should have gotten them sooner. The best way I can describe the experience of wearing these is, it’s kind of like having a really good sound system in whatever space you’re in. You can listen to these and everything around you, but the music, or podcast, or whatever you’re playing is private and insanely high quality, especially at lower volumes. The immersive feature is also pretty cool, and the battery is a monster. I was also surprised at how little sound leakage there is. It’s not particularly detectable unless you blast the volume, and you won’t want to. The only thing that’s not great is the call quality. I’ve tried a few times and don’t really like using them for phone calls.

I recieved these as a gift on christmas, after a few weeks with them I can genuinely say that I am very pleased with them. These are different, I can wear them both at work and still hear all my surroundings, the sound they deliver is clear and encompassing. They have an odd way of filling a niche that I think does have a place in your daily life. They are really fun to use while excercising and playing sports as well as they are the first earphone I can wear while laying down that does not hurt my ear. These however are NOT the type of earphones you’d go to for bass or even a full experience for your music. The best way to describe them is to imagine you are carrying a speaker on you and it is firing from all sides, its there but not overhwhelming. It fills a spot in my cycle of headphones and earphones that I previously had not realized I needed.

The latest and greatest from Bose in earbuds. They sit on the outside of your ear rather than inside allowing you to listen to music, podcasts etc. and never have to stop having conversation with those around you. I work in IT in a corporate environment and these are great for staying connected and being available to provide support all day. Battery life is fantastic 8 hours on standard play mode, 4 hrs on immersive and the charging case gets you another 19 hrs of play time. You might be concerned about comfort but despite clipping on your outer ear these are so comfortable you will forget you are wearing them throughout the day. These are custom made for a particular user who wants to listen to music but be available to chat or listen to their surroundings all day. If you are looking for the best in ANC these are not the earbuds for you. Couple things the case is not wireless charging enabled and a since they don't go in the ear there is no real adjusting the earbuds they just clip on and sit. With the app you can do the usual amount of customization, firmware updates, edit what the buttons do. The buttons are mechanical push buttons not touch sensors which feels satisfying to push. If you are the user these were intended for you won't find any more comfortable earbuds to get through your day and listen to music while staying engaged in water cooler talk.

These Bose earphones are an interesting form factor, using a tension on a coil to hold the open ear earphones around the edge of your ear above your ear lobe and place the speaker portion near your ear canal. This is good in theory, but it relies on the right size of ear to work properly, unlike other open ear earphones that have a band around your head or a small band that goes between the top of your ear and your head. I tried these, but my ears are far too big to use these properly. The barrel portion does tension around the edge of my ear above my ear lobe as intended, but the distance from where the speaker portion then rests on my ear is quite a distance from my ear canal, so the sound of the music is fairly low. Even when I have them at full volume, the volume I hear in my far away ear canals is mid level at best. I did test this by having people with more normal size ears wear them and they reported the sound was way too loud at full volume and they generally listened to music at about 35 to 40 percent of full volume. The sound quality is excellent. I could also observed that the speaker portion was much closer to their ear canal than on my ear. Definitely pass for those with large ears. The immersive sound options were very nice, especially the motion one, its pretty cool to hear the music move around you as you move, it must use an accelerometer to detect movement. The Bose app does tend to get confused and takes a bit to get reset when it has a hiccup, but it does this by itself, with no user intervention needed, and does it without restarting the app. I would recommend to try this if you have normal sized ears and want an open ear earphone that doesn't have any bands around your head.
