Additionally, a small portion of customers feel that the product is priced higher than its overall value.

Posted .Hi SamuelA, thank you for sharing your feedback. 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 person on the other end of the call. Please make sure the microphones are not obstructed by headwear and that the earbuds are positioned correctly on each ear.
We’re sorry to hear you’re experiencing microphone issues, and we’d be happy to help you resolve this. You can check out this helpful link for more information: https://bose.life/3N7ubHl

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Don't Purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For $300 these earbuds should be above Apple Airpod quality. The audio did not blow me out of the water. The call quality is terrible! I attempted to return them but was told I was past the window which might not even have been true. I'm so upset that I let an employee who most likely could have cared less tell me this was a good option. Do your own research.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would use them and afterwards or even during usung them i felt as though i was going deaf and i felt dizzy as if i was getting sick. Not sure why, but i would’ve absolutely kept them if they didnt make me feel off. Would not recommend if you have super good ears like myself. That frequency was way too much!

Posted .Hi Danasiah, thank you for sharing your feedback on the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. We’re glad to hear you appreciated aspects of the product, though we’re sorry to learn they didn’t feel comfortable for you. The earbuds are designed to let you enjoy your music while staying aware of your surroundings, keeping your ears open to hear the world around you while OpenAudio technology delivers rich, private sound.
At moderate listening volumes, they can deliver clear sound while helping reduce ear fatigue. We’d recommend adjusting the volume on your device to see if that improves comfort. Hope this helps!

Not good with Android
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned as they didn’t work with my TV. Box said made for MAC and IPhone; will work with Android. That's not totally true. It linked to my ZPhone but didn’t link to my TV. You need to identify this in the sales advert so I won't waste my time and money having to return them.

Just bought for the aesthetic
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds are pure @$$. I could stand the fact that they don’t have noise cancellation because of the design. I got these solely because I loved how they looked. What I can’t abide is how they constantly unpair from my devices and how trash they are for phone calls (no one can hear me properly on this). Even with the discounts they have on these frequently, it’s still a questionable investment.

Posted .Hi Tylor, I'm very sorry to hear your Ultra Open Earbuds are unpairing from your devices! If this is happening, try rebooting your mobile device, which can resolve such issues. If people are having trouble hearing you on calls as well, make sure you're on the latest firmware; version 4.0.22 was introduced to improve the customer's experience on calls. If these steps don't help, remember our support team will always be on hand to help you: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US.
