Customer Ratings & Reviews

This headphones are wonderful, music sounds great and super comfy when going on runs. Battery life is solid and honestly the quality is just fire.

...sometimes the connection isn't as seamless as it should be. Of course, it could be user error or that I used them across Apple and Android. Anyway, I've has a Bose Soundwear (neckband speaker) that I loved because it allowed me to have my music while being able to hear the environment around me. Sound familiar? These open earbuds are the evolution and so much better: 1. size, 2. sound isolation from others, 3. fit (the Soundwear would get in the way or fall off in certain situations). Bottom line: I now take these with me everywhere.

For open ear headphones, I love these. They are super light, I usually forget I have them on. The sound quality is great once you tweak the EQ with the Bose App. Out of the box they are lacking in bass. I love that I can hear everything around me and my music effortlessly and people around me cannot hear anything unless they are 75% volume or higher which they never need to be. These are better than bone conduction headphones like AfterShokz because those usually pressing into my head gave me a headache after too long. The Case is still small enough to fit in the "watch" pocket of your jeans. I love them. These will be useless on a plane. I was going to do 4 stars because they can't be used on a plane, but that's not why I bought them. I bought them because my airpod Pro's were starting to get uncomfortable being in my ears all the time. These are amazing and I love using them every day, literally on here back at BBY.com to buy my wife a pair.

Sound is awesome. The clarity and details. Bass is great for open style. More bass than other open earbuds and the best part is thay even at low volume, the bass is very noticeable. You can feel the rumble. You can adjust it in the Bose app EQ. Very comfortable and the battery lasts all day. If you are looking for open style, get these!!!

Love these open ear buds! Incredibly comfortable and have great sound once you find the best spot for your ear. I dont get sore spots on my ear like some other styles. I can forget im wearing them, but they stay on really well. Got them for a good deal too!

Bought for my husband. He loved mine, so I got him a pair. Sound is great, stays in ears and don't irritate ears either . Battery life a 10! Lasts forever!

sound amazing works great lasts long time very comfortable

I have had these earbuds for a little less than a month and I really like them. This is my first Bose product and the sound doesn’t disappoint. I would say if you have sensitive ears than you may not like the way it wraps on your ears. They’re also very secure on your ear so they’re good for working out in.

I bought these for my son, and he has raved about how comfortable these are, and the sound quality is exactly what you'd expect from Bose. He's very happy with them and often forgets that they're on his ears. They come highly recommended!

Although this product has an innovative design and great sound quality, that's where it ends. The fit is perfect, and the open earbuds really allow you to be aware of your surroundings. They're great for hiking, running, and other activities. However, the mic quality is absolutely horrendous, even after updating the product. No matter the conditions in which the call is taken, the other person won't be able to hear you clearly (it sounds like you're in a bathroom or below deck in a boat). I thought I received a defective product, so I exchanged it. Nope. The mic is still horrible. Yes, I've tried Shokz and other competitors, but the sound quality in these is unmatched for an open-earbud design. If you don't care about taking calls while you have these in, it's a great product. The price target should be more in the $150 range due to the mics and cheap plastic case. If you want wireless charging, you'll have to spend another $50 for the compatible case. If Bose could stop releasing several different colors and focus on the mics, this would be an amazing set of open earbuds.

[Employee of bestbuy] For open headpuones, the sound quality is very good. The headphones are comfortable to wear as well. Battery life seems great so far as well. Why not 5 stars? These headphones have some big drawbacks too. When i answer phone calls, nearly everyone has said rhe microphone isn't very good. Also, the controls other than pause and restart playing don't seem to work. I'm unable to change volume for example. I have to do many of the controls though my phone.

I bought these right after Thanksgiving, set them up and wore them once. I was impressed with the sound quality, how light and comfortable they were, and being able to switch from my phone to my laptop as a source. Literally the very next morning, after I let them charge the left earbud didn't work, I followed all of Bose instructions with a re-sync and then a factory reset. The left bud seemingly was lost, it wouldn't recognize or sync at all. So I played around with it, I put it on the right ear spot and it showed to be charging, I figured out the contacts for the left earbud were not making contacts. I thought I had it remedied, however the next day at the gym not only did the left not sync initially but it had near zero charge. So 3 stars is a tad generous, however, when they work they are fantastic, even in loud environments (unlike some have said), and i really like them in the gym. These things don't fall out!

Amazing comfort and sound. They stay on, don’t block outside noise, and the audio is classic Bose quality. Perfect for work, gym, or just walking around. The Driftwood color is subtle and premium. Highly recommend if you want awareness + great music.

The fit is amazing, very light weight I give it 5 stars. The overall rating I give 2 stars 1 because the incoming call volume is horrible. I literally can hear any and everything they’re not the least bit noise canceling. Now can I wear them at work and most think they’re a thick pair of earrings yes but not worth my 320.00 I gave them to my husband. Beautiful design but would not recommend to an enemy. The volume is low compared to apple air pods. I spent more time saying what did you say. May be okay for working out listening to low volume but for anything else.

I purchased these as a gift for my dad and he loved them. He previously had AirPods. He loves how comfortable they sit on the ear without adding any pressure. The sound quality is amazing and he likes how you can still hear what’s around you while listening to music. The battery life last a good time and charging them is quick and easy. Overall he was extremely satisfied with them!

I've had these for about 2 weeks now and I think the sound on them are really good for what they are. Open ear headphones. I ride the metro so these are perfect for staying aware of my surroundings. The volume levels are great but I have noticed that sometimes a drop in volume at times. I could be listening to something and it sounds crystal clear at about 70% volume, but sometimes (in the same environment) I would be at 150% volume and can barely hear anything. I've had to close out all apps and restart my phone and the sound would go back to normal. I've had one connectivity issue so far where my phone would not connect again to these earbuds for approximately 20 minutes. I restarted my phone, disconnected the headphones from my device, placed the headphone back into the case and nothing. It wasn't until about 20 minutes in the case and it began working again. And yes they were at 100 % battery. I had just finished charging them and was headed to grab lunch but they wouldn't connect. I want to give these a higher review but right now I see a few problems happening in just a little over 2 weeks and I hope they don't continue. If the problems don't persist in the next few months I will gladly bump up the rating on the review.

Understand what you are buying and you will love them. These are not audiophile grade headphones. If you are looking for noise cancellation heavy bass and high volumes these are not for you. These serve a purpose. For what they are the sound quality is quite good. I bought these for biking and for the office. They excel at the office. I use them for calls, as a headset for listening to music etc. I can have these on playing music and still hear people approach my office and speak to them and hear them no problem. They are discreet and not extremely noticable. They are light weight and very comfortable. I wear them for hours at a time. I walk around with these not playing anything and forget they are on which is nice. Just buy them for what they are for.

Bought this Boss ear buds for my husband Christmas gift and he love it. It's so comfortable when put it in the ears,, the sound is awesome and the battery charge last a long time. Thank you!

Good, lightweight product with decent sound for open ended earbuds..satisfied with purchase

Nice buds, comfortable nice sound and easily taken in and out. These ear buds stay in place and you don’t have to worry bout sizing the tips to keep them in. So far so good. The final test is how long do they last.
