Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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.

Very comfortable and light. Sound quality is amazing

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.

This is one the best earbuds for me. The design,the sound quality specially when its on still mode?Its amazing! And it holds pretty good i ran and it didnt come off or anything like that. Overall really satisfied with the new bose open ear experienced. Loved it!!

Best in the game when it comes to an open ear design and being able to hear everything around you. After trying top performers of none co ducting headphones these are def superior in sound quality. Although they won’t sound as good as quality open ear or closed back traditional headphones they do step it up from bone conducting headphones. I have never had them fall off and with the Bose app there is a 3 band eq to help take the top end. Overall I’m happy with the purchase.

I thought the Bose Ultra open-ear true wireless earbuds was great. Has a really good look. However, it does not have good noise cancellation.

Anothe great product from BOSE and BEST BUY. These are improved over the QC II and a totally different animal. These arew MUCH better than the QC II ! Connectivity was bad at best with those ( android). The quiet comfort Ultas open ear are great for what they are designed for. Well made what you would expect from BOSE and Best Buy!

These Bose earbuds are next level!!! I love wearing these while in the office. I have these connected to my Macbook and works flawless. Battery life is good but the sound is so crisp and clear!!! The way they clip on is deceivingly strong. They will not fall off.

Dont leave reviews often but thought i would share my two cents. I wanted an open ear pair of headphones for running. Tried the Cleer Arc 2 and returned them. They werent for me. Purchased these and they surprised me. Really love them. Very comfortable, good/great sound. And i dont feel anti socialt when i put them on because i can still hear whats going on around me (volume dependent). Needless to say i kept them and love them.

I dont normally write reviews but i have weird ear canals and used the UE fits until they broke. Saw these and as an audiophile i know Bose is hit and miss. In regards to other headphones that have open ear options like sony, shockz, ect these provide the best sound possible for an open ear concept with out noise leakage, very immersive and they dont slip at all.

Like like!!! They are comfy on your ear, they have great sound and battery last long. Super Cute :-)

Love these! I dont have to keep pulling my over the ear heads phones off, when ppl talk to me! Its great when you want to multitask. I use them when Im doing yard work, that way, I can hear cars coming. To me, I feel less rattling in my ears when I turn them up all the way. I did have to replace them once, because one stopped connecting to my phone. But if you have the Total Plus membership, they were replaced for free. No fuss no hassle. It was the best warranty experience I have ever had.

These earbuds are pretty great and sound you would expect from Bose! I usually prefer Active noise cancellation earbuds to block out all the noise but these are great when you need to listen to your surroundings like outside on the busy streets or the Subway where you might want to be more aware of your surroundings. Or if you bike or run outside and want to listen to Music but don't want to be distracted while doing those things. Inside the box you get to earbuds in the case along with a USB Type A cable to Type C. these are buds that don't go into your ear at all so you don't have to worry about ear tips or fit at all. I have tried other earbuds that try to do similar things to this where it sits on your ear and doesn't go in but I think I like this implantation the most. The bud has a small C shaped thing connected to this ball thing. The ball thing goes behind you ear and the other part wraps around your ear which has the speaker. It feels weird at first but once I got used to it was easy and I barely feel it. Sound wise it is great for what it is. Considering it doesn't go into your ear nor does it go over and cover your ears like ear buds or over the ear or on the ear headphones do you lose the bass response from these compared to those though. Besides that small flaw I found the bass to b clean and the sound overall to be clean and audible. I wish it could get a tad louder but it could be a fit thing I haven't figured out yet.

It sounds good and comfortable for long time use, but need ware it right way.

Sweet sound, great design and solid life before charging

This are great earbuds great sound comfortable to wear but call quality sucks witch now i need to return

I never leave reviews but today I got my Bose ultra open earbuds and I am truly impressed so much I had to review thespe. Im very big on sound quality and comfort and I i can't believe these have both. I give them 10/10. So worth it

Absolutely love the Bose air pods!! Wonderful sound, very comfortable, can listen to my music and still be aware of my surroundings. Nothing compares to Bose and the sound. Way better than Apple AirPods hand’s down.

My husband loves these and says that they are the best pair of earbuds he has ever owned. He will only get these from now on from how good the quality are.
